**Bobby Flay Publicly Praises Girlfriend Brooke Williamson, Calls Her the “Pretty” Upgrade He Needs on “Beat Bobby Flay”**

**NEW YORK, NY – May 16, 2024** – Celebrity chef Bobby Flay took to Instagram to shower girlfriend Brooke Williamson with public praise, further solidifying their relationship after going public in March. In a Q&A session with fans on Thursday, May 15th, the “Beat Bobby Flay” star was asked who he would choose as a teammate for the show. Flay didn’t hesitate to name Williamson, not only acknowledging her culinary talents but also highlighting her presentation skills.

“I’ll take @chefbrookew,” Flay wrote. “I know our food would get an upgrade in terms of presentation. She makes delicious food, but it’s always pretty too (like her).”

Williamson responded with a blushing emoji on her own Instagram story.

Sources confirmed in March that the two Food Network stars had become a couple after a long friendship. Their relationship blossomed following Williamson’s divorce from Nick Roberts earlier this year. They’ve already been spotted out together, including at a New York Knicks game in April.

Flay’s daughter, Sophie Flay, has also weighed in on the relationship, joking about her father always having a date.

The couple are set to appear together on Food Network’s upcoming “BBQ Brawl,” premiering June 1st. Flay will be defending his title against fellow captains Maneet Chauhan and Antonia Lofaso, while Williamson will serve as a judge. This marks another exciting chapter in their burgeoning romance, blending their personal and professional lives.

Prior to Williamson, Flay was in a relationship with Christina Pérez, which ended in June 2024.
