Andy Cohen Confirms Romance with Businessman Kevin Sobieski

Andy Cohen and Kevin Sobieski have emerged as one of Bravo's newest power couples, transitioning from a private romance to public acknowledgment after nearly a year of dating. The Watch What Happens Live host confirmed his relationship with the businessman in June 2026 following photographs of the pair holding hands in New York City's West Village.

The relationship began at a Fourth of July party in the Hamptons in July 2025, an event Cohen nearly 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, according to Us Weekly. "I went, we talked all night."

Sobieski, a Harvard-educated professional, works at alternative asset management firm TPG on its portfolio operations team, with a focus on healthcare investments. His background stands in contrast to Cohen's entertainment industry career, a distinction Cohen has noted as significant to their relationship dynamic.

The television host first hinted at the relationship during an October 2025 appearance on Alex Cooper's "Call Her Daddy" podcast, revealing he had been on "some dates" with a man and describing his type as "strong, independent, smart" and "handsome." At the time, Cohen discussed navigating dating as a single father, mentioning he had experimented with dating applications including Raya and Grindr.

By November 2025, Cohen was showing photographs of Sobieski to Real Housewives stars at BravoCon, though none disclosed the information publicly. "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, according to Us Weekly.

The relationship became public knowledge in June 2026 when photographs surfaced of the couple holding hands in the West Village on Cohen's 58th birthday. The pair 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 revealed the couple had been holding hands publicly for months without detection. "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, according to Us Weekly. "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 after the photographs emerged, 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, according to Us Weekly. "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."

The television host described Sobieski as "so low-key" and emphasized his lack of entertainment industry background. Cohen, who is a single father to son Ben and daughter Lucy, praised how Sobieski had integrated into his family structure. "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 said, according to Us Weekly. "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 eleven months together, the couple had not experienced a single argument, suggesting a level of compatibility that has exceeded his expectations.

In July 2026, Cohen addressed the sixteen-year age difference between himself and Sobieski with characteristic humor on Watch What Happens Live. When guest Georgia McCann questioned Next Gen NYC costar Ava Dash's connection with fellow Bravolebrity Kyle Cooke, who is seventeen years her senior, the camera panned to Cohen. "Don't put the camera on me!" Cohen said playfully, shaking his head and covering his face with a card, according to Us Weekly. "I'm only in a 16-year age-gap relationship."

Before his relationship with Cohen, Sobieski 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.

The relationship represents a significant development in Cohen's personal life, which he has navigated publicly while maintaining his role as a prominent television host and single parent. His willingness to discuss the relationship openly reflects a shift from his previous approach to privacy regarding romantic partnerships.
