Kathie Lee Gifford isn’t “actively looking” for love
The 67-year-old daytime talk show host and actress has been looking for a new man following the passing of her husband Frank Gifford in 2015, but has now admitted she’s stopped actively searching for her new Mr. Right, and thinks she’ll only “fall in love again” if a higher power makes it happen
18 October 2020
She told Page Six: “I think I dated four different gentlemen and they’re all great guys but they’re not the guy for me … If I fall in love again it will be because God just made it happen.”
The news comes after Kathie recently admitted she has been “unsuccessful” in her quest for love so far, and insisted she doesn’t have a strict preference for her ideal man, as she would just like him to have “real teeth”.
She said: “Oh, I got some gams. That’s about all I’ve got left. I still have my teeth, but I’m just looking for a guy that’s got real teeth. That’s it.
“I have dated a little bit. It’s not been successful.”
Meanwhile, Kathie said earlier this year she is “open” to dating almost five years after her husband died of natural causes.
She said: "Of course I'm open [to dating]! Who says I'm not dating somebody?"
But Kathie Lee is hesitant to speak about her love life in public, because it "could be over by tomorrow", and she's "picky" when it comes to men.
The star - who has Cody, 30, and Cassidy, 27, with her late husband - explained: "I don't expect any man to ever fill my husband's cleats, nobody will ever be Frank Gifford. I'm not looking for that. I'm not looking for anything. If he comes along, I'll know. I'm not looking, I'm busy.”
