  • Andy Cohen was spotted holding hands with Kevin Sobieski after a birthday dinner at Via Carota in NYC.

Andy Cohen rang in his birthday in the best way possible — with a new man on his arm and fingers firmly intertwined.

The Bravo boss was spotted holding hands with Kevin Sobieski after a birthday dinner at Via Carota in New York City. And this wasn’t some ambiguous “just friends” stroll. Cameras caught the cute couple leaving the dinner with fingers fully laced.

Talk about a birthday gift.

Andy was rocking his birthday best in an off-white suit, pink shirt, and chic shoes, while his new man sported a dark suit with a white button-down. The two looked very much like a couple who had somewhere to be — together.

So who exactly is Kevin Sobieski? Kevin works for an asset management firm and has previously been linked to Broadway composer Benj Pasek. DeuxMoi first posted the photos identifying the mystery man only as “Kevin,” but the comments were immediately flooded by fans who recognized him as Kevin Sobieski. The internet works fast.

The two have been dating for a few months, per sources — so this is no first-date situation. The Via Carota dinner was more of a coming-out party for a romance that’s apparently already been quietly cooking.

Andy, 58, has been candid over the years about wanting love. He’s famously talked about his friendship with John Mayer as a kind of north star for what he wants in a relationship — once saying, “If I could find a gay guy that was him, it would be magic.” Based on Tuesday night’s hand-holding stroll through Manhattan, it sounds like he may have found his person.

The Watch What Happens Live host has two kids and has been open about navigating single parenthood while hoping for a real relationship. A finance exec who cleans up nicely and apparently doesn’t mind a camera or two? Not a bad birthday present.

The outing puts a public face on what sources describe as a possible new romance, and it’s the kind of PDA that’s hard to walk back. Holding hands through the streets of New York isn’t a mistake — it’s a statement.

The Real Housewives franchise may have a new love story to watch, and this one isn’t going to a confessional.
