Bravo fans are buzzing about Andy Cohen’s relationship with businessman Kevin Sobieski after photos of the pair holding hands in New York City went viral in June 2026. “This fella and I have been holding hands all over town, you guys, so it’s wild that there were photographs taken the other night,” Cohen said of […]
July 2025
Cohen and Sobieski connected at a 4th of July party in the Hamptons in July 2025 — an event Cohen almost skipped.
“I almost didn’t go and I dragged myself out. I never get invited to gay parties in the Hamptons anymore,” Cohen recalled on SiriusXM’s Radio Andy in June 2026. “I went, we talked all night.”
Sobieski, a Harvard-educated businessman, works at alternative asset management firm TPG on its portfolio operations team, focusing primarily on healthcare investments. Before dating Cohen, he was linked to composer Benj Pasek — of songwriting duo Pasek and Paul, who created music for La La Land and The Greatest Showman — from 2018 to 2022.
October 2025
Cohen offered his first public hint about Sobieski during an October 2025 appearance on Alex Cooper’s “Call Her Daddy” podcast. At the time, the TV host said he had been on “some dates” with a man and described his type as “strong, independent, smart” and “handsome.”
Cohen also opened up about his dating life as a single dad, sharing that he had tried apps including Raya and Grindr.
“I have kids, obviously, and so dating has really changed, and I meet two kind[s] of people,” he said. “People that I want to sleep with and people that I want to date, and we all do. And people that I want to date and sleep with, obviously. That’s the goal.”
November 2025
By BravoCon in November 2025, Cohen was showing off photos of Sobieski to his Real Housewives stars — and none of them leaked the news.
“I’m showing them all pictures and nobody said a word. It never got out. I showed so many Housewives,” Cohen said on his radio show the next year.
June 2026
The couple’s cover was blown when photos surfaced of the pair holding hands in New York City’s West Village in June 2026 on Cohen’s 58th birthday. The two had dined at Italian restaurant Via Carota, according to a DeuxMoi report. Cohen wore a tan suit with a pink T-shirt, while Sobieski opted for a dark suit and pale button-up.
Cohen later said he’d actually been holding hands with Sobieski around town for months.
“This fella and I have been holding hands all over town, you guys, so it’s wild that there were photographs taken the other night,” Cohen said on his radio show. “People have said to me, ‘You were at Via Corota. What did you expect?’ I’ve been in that restaurant holding hands with him for the whole time.”
Days later, Cohen officially addressed the relationship on Radio Andy, telling listeners he had planned to wait until their one-year anniversary before going public.
“I don’t want to be with the wrong person. I value my time too much. I value my life too much,” Cohen said. “My criteria about what I was looking for never changed. It’s always been a feeling for me. I’ve always followed the feeling. I am really happy to say that I met the person.”
He described Sobieski as “so low-key,” noted he has no entertainment background and gushed about how the businessman had fit into his family. (Cohen is a single dad of son Ben and daughter Lucy.)
“This man is kind and strong and smart and he is an adult and he loves my children and they love him and I love him,” Cohen gushed. “Introducing him to the kids and just entering him into the equation of my family so slowly, I have to say it has been so easy.”
Cohen added that after 11 months together, they hadn’t had a single fight.
July 2026
On his Watch What Happens Live, Cohen made light of his 16-year age difference with Sobieski. When guest Georgia McCann questioned Next Gen NYC costar Ava Dash’s connection with fellow Bravolebrity Kyle Cooke — who is 17 years her senior — the camera panned to Cohen.
“Don’t put the camera on me!” Cohen playfully said, shaking his head and covering his face with a card. “I’m only in a 16-year age-gap relationship.”
The same month, Cohen debuted Sobieski on Instagram. Alongside a photo of the pair embracing, Cohen wrote, “Date Night ♥️🌟🌈☀️⚡️”
