These Food Network Costars Are Reportedly Dating

Turns out, Bobby Flay and Brooke Williamson are cooking up more than just competition.

As reported by People on Monday, March 25, the Food Network stars are officially dating after years of friendship and working together on Bobby’s Triple Threat.

“They have been friends for a while and recently decided to jump in,” a source told the outlet. “[Williamson’s] divorce last year probably gave them some additional shared experiences and over the last few weeks, love bloomed.”

The 46-year-old former Top Chef winner was married to fellow chef and business partner Nick Roberts in 2007. After 16 years together, the pair called it quits, finalizing their divorce in early 2024 — they share a 17-year-old son, Hudson.

Meanwhile, Flay, 60, has been married three times and was most recently linked to writer and editor Christina Pérez before they went their separate ways in June 2024. Like Williamson, the Triple Threat host is also a parent — he shares 28-year-old daughter Sophie with ex-wife Kate Connelly.

Although Flay has had his fair share of high-profile breakups, he’s still open to love. “I would be interested in a life partner for sure,” the TV personality told Kristin Cavallari on her Let’s Be Honest podcast in October 2024. Flay added that he doesn’t necessarily need the documentation, though. 

“Once you sign a document that says, ‘You are now together,’ there’s something that changes,” the cookbook author said. “When you try to explain that to people who have never been married, they don’t know what you’re talking about. They’re like, ‘What’s the difference?’ And I’m like well, there is a difference but I can’t really put my finger on it.”

Wedding bells or not, Flay’s already showing up in big ways.

According to People, the restaurateur flew to L.A. to surprise Williamson at the No Kid Hungry Dinner on Monday, March 17, where she was being honored. Williamson later called it “a dream of an evening” in an Instagram post, which included a few snaps of Flay.
