Bobby Flay & Chelsea Handler are dating now: messy or evenly matched?

wenn22757103

Bobby Flay’s love life has always been sort of messy. It cooled down a bit during his 10-year marriage to Stephanie March, although there were always lingering rumors that Flay never could keep it in his pants during that marriage (his third). Once March and Flay split up and were going through their divorce, all of the dirt came pouring out, the stories about his affairs, stories about how March had a lot of dirt on him and she was prepared to use it, even if it meant sending “CHEATER” planes overheard of Flay’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Anyway, long story short, March got her money and Flay got his divorce and what seems like a tight confidentiality agreement. And now Flay is back on the market, and since messy people attract other messy people, he was set up on a date with Chelsea Handler.

Is Bobby Flay getting Chelsea Handler all hot and bothered? The newly divorced chef and the outspoken comedian were spotted having a cozy dinner for two at Blue Plate Oysterette in Santa Monica, Calif., on Wednesday night.

“It looked like a date,” a witness told Page Six. Although our spy didn’t observe any funny business, the pair sat at a back corner table and did look “flirty.” They pulled up to the restaurant in the same car.

During an interview which taped last Wednesday, Handler said she would be going on a first date with someone famous that night. Though she didn’t name names, Handler revealed that he’s in “an extension of this business” when Ellen DeGeneres asked if he works in show business.

“A friend set us up,” Handler said. “I’ve never met him but I know of him … You’d know him.”

In July, Flay, 51, finalized his contentious divorce from actress Stephanie March — a blond, blue-eyed beauty like Handler — after a decade of marriage. Handler, 40, famously dated hotelier André Balazs but has never been married. Reps for Flay and Handler did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

I was going to say something about how Handler is too indiscreet for Flay, but that’s not true – Handler really didn’t say that much about Andre Balazs during their on-and-off thing, nor has she ever said much about her relationship with the then-married executive who gave her the E! show. She is capable of being discreet, about some things and some people. I do think Handler would probably like to see herself as a maneater, capable of dating high-profile men then chewing them up and spitting them out. But is that who she really is? Eh. Anyway, if Flay and Chelsea do become a real couple, they both deserve whatever they can do to each other. In some ways, they’re actually evenly matched.

    Did it ever come out who was behind that “CHEATER” plane stunt? That was classic

  2. GoodNamesAllTaken says:

    Two unattractive, mean people get together. What could go wrong?

  3. kibbles says:

    They both disgust me so I guess you can say they are evenly matched and perfect for each other. Can’t imagine these two bumping uglies. Barf.

  4. Darkladi says:

    HAHAHA!!!!! Thank you, “Goodnames” for the for the delicious scoop of bitch pudding! My day is made!!!

  5. Fluff says:

    Douche-pocalypse!

  6. tracking says:

    He should never get married again, and I think she has no interest. Perfect match.

  7. Melly says:

    I hate both of these people. They are both talentless trash

  8. islandwalker says:

    Evenly matched- both gross.

  9. Talie says:

    “nor has she ever said much about her relationship with the then-married executive who gave her the E! show”

    OMG…you must not be a Howard Stern fan. She goes IN on Ted Harbart every time she is on there.

  10. Scal says:

    She’s just a budget less pretty version of his ex Stephanie March-so sure. They both are jerks so they deserve each other.

  11. Rhiley says:

    This is slightly off topic, but last night I watched Chelsea Does Drugs on Netflix, and I ended up just feeling kind of sad for her. She is still very much an intelligent, lazy, stoner high schooler, but it is pretty pathetic because she is “forty.” I think Bobby Flay is a control freak so they may be hooking up and hanging out some, but he isn’t going to commit to her because she is a mess. He may like her free spirit now, but that gets old after a couple of weeks.

  12. Nancy says:

    Maybe the guy can’t keep it in his pants and has an ego the size of Utah, but he can cook his buns off, oh my, buns of cinnamon sound right about now…

  13. Mean Hannah says:

    So…we are calling Chelsea Handler a “beauty” now, eh? This is a spectacular mess, I mean match, but the big question is who is her friend who set her up with him?!?

  14. Esther says:

    Isnt she into hot guys?

  15. JH says:

    He’s highly unattractive. I don’t get it at all.

  16. Maya says:

    This is comedy gold – trash dating trash. Chelsea is a vile person and do it he – perfect match.

    I so cannot wait to see the fireworks when these break up.

    PS: Chelsea always talks about her relationships. The only thing she said was that she won’t talk about Andre’s children because they were children. But she didn’t/doesn’t have any issues attacking other children just because she hates their parents.

  17. JenniferJustice says:

    Holy Crap!! This is a total sh!tstorm waiting to happen! Bobby, you better keep it in your pants or Chelsea will demolish you! I can only imagine if Handler walked in on Bobby and say, Giada!!! OMG. I’ll make the popcorn and dig out the snuggie blanket things. This is going to be epic…..

  18. kri says:

    God almighty, they will produce the Antichrist. Awful, awful people.

    • deehunny says:

      lol yes. when I read the headline, i said aloud BRAIN BLEACH I NEED BRAIN BLEACH!!! Things you can’t unsee in your mind’s eye

  19. TOPgirl says:

    These two disgusting people deserve to be together as long as they don’t reproduce.

  20. Jaded says:

    They deserve all the sh*t that will naturally hit the fan if they continue seeing each other. You think she was hard on Angelina? She was just warming up….

    • Yepisaidit says:

      Why did Chelsea never get the sh.. Angelina continues to get for being a “homewrecker” if she was dating the married E! Executive? Hmmm

      • ann says:

        nobody was jealous of/intimidated by the thought of Chelsea Handler.

        there is always some degree of judgment when a woman gets involved (even emotionally) with a married man, but – imo – the vitriol that came for Angelina was because she embodies an allure that triggers a particularly intense fear in women everywhere.

  21. me says:

    How random.

  22. JDC says:

    Well, Bobby got one thing right–he’s dating women as a legally single man this time around! I’m not a fan of Handler at all, I think she is so crude, vulgar, and mean. While I like Bobby’s books and cooking shows, I think he is disrespectful and full of himself in general. However, I genuinely don’t think they have anything in common (other than their terrible attitudes), and I don’t think this is going to last beyond a booty call or two…

  23. Deroet says:

    I’ve met Bobby Flay. Not friendly at all – borderline rude. These two belong together.

  24. ann says:

    ugh. he’ll treat her badly and then she’ll make vulgar, bitter jokes about it. NEXT.
