Is Yigal Azrouël All Up in that Katie Lee Joel?!?
Rumors are sparking that Katie Lee Joel (celeb chef and wife of Billy Joel) might be getting a little too familiar with her designer pal Yigal Azrouel. The National Enquirer is speculating that Billy is furious over his wife’s new friend cause he initially thought the designer was gay. (Honest mistake, it is fashion after all.)
Yigal and Katie say they’re just friends. But good girls normally don’t stay friends with foreign, accent-using, young designers who have access to $5000 gowns. Just saying, watch your wife Piano Man.
