Yeah, that's a ridiculous thing to say. My grandma is almost 90 and nowhere near "senile". You don't know either one of these people and apparently you don't know "nature" either.
I've loved Katharine since her AI audition. And David is A LEGEND. Katharine had already had a career before she married him and they've known each other for so long so I have no doubt that their marriage isn't about anything but love for each other. They are so cute together. When they talk about each other, they give each other little touches. Its so cute!!! I'm so happy for them!!
So what did SHE die. Or because SHE was sick. But watch it that in the vows. In sickness or in healt. Not because the other is young.but look like SHE aged SHE looks old. WOW
You never know what goes on in peoples relationship behind closed doors. It could have been her behavior for all we know. Best to mind your own business.
I've seen them together they seem like really a great match, they are truly in love. he smiles constantly and so does she they laugh a lot...its called joy...admiration mutual respect, they seem very well suited for each other.
I've known my husband for 3 years now and I don't mean to brag but we are perfect together. I've been sober for 5 years and he doesn't drink. Thats how I feel about Katharine and David. He's never married a woman who can sing and his passion is female artistry. Perfect pair!!!
I can't help but think, if David Foster wasn't rich, famous and full of connections, would McPhee still be interested in him romantically? I am not sold.
Who knows. But people need different things. I know women who married much older men and found a better relationship than they had before with people their own age. It might not just be the money. You can see Foster still has a a lot of energy, is still very sharp, and a lot of charm - perhaps he also has problems finding people his age that can keep up with him? It's pointless speculating, we just don't know.
Hector Solis-Ortiz David has been married six times. I can't stand the guy. He's so arrogant. I give this one a year. She will get tired of his need to control her.
Sometimes people find their soul mate later in life and I like them together ....the only thing that makes me sad is that he will be gone way before her if things go in order
I'm Katharine's age and though I was skeptical, I have to admit has more style and confidence in his sleeve than the most of the age-appropriate straight men I know :P Not blaming y'all, but I hope men watch this and understand how much women like good hair at any age.
@E W Really you are going with this? Seriously? Are you really going to tell me that there wasn't any men her age that were probably trying to date her that she could have gotten with? C'mon you don't seriously believe that do you? Let me ask you this who has more money her or him? Let me ask you this who has more access to power him or her, let me ask you this who was a higher status him or her. You are telling me that this facts do not come to her mind at all? If she was content with what she already has she would have zero problems with dating in her age range, but fact is that by getting marry to old balls over here, she gains status and power. I'm not knocking her for doing it or him, but lets be honest is not love not one bit.
@J J I’m a month late on your comment. In the beginning of his and Kat’s relationship I thought no surprise and it really wasn’t, as it seemed obvious that there was a strong attraction going back to American Idol. I only watched one episode of RHOBH and it was one where all were gathered in Yolanda’s and David’s home and she asked him to play a tune on the piano to a rather disgusting made up song and I could tell David didn’t want to, so regardless of her sickness, there were problems brewing.
That is not the reason for their divorce. And NEVER presume to know what goes on in someone's marriage. That is advice my father gave me and has served me well for 62 years. Do not take sides.
I like them together. It seems to work for them. So what if it’s not conventional like Katharine says. Love is love, end of, and they seem genuinely happy with each other! 🤷♀️
I think that they are very well suited for each other. Yolanda is a beautiful women, but David Foster is all about music. A couple has to have things in common that draw them together. Romance isn't forever and if you have nothing in common, a marriage simple fades just like beauty. My husband and I are fourteen years apart and it can be a struggle at times to find common ground but we are both artistic and have a deep love for our family and that is what holds us together.
Staying home because of this pandemic i am coming across some incredible stories and strikes me that i am 59 and i have a 34 year old kid that i still consider a kid but good for this couple if they are in love, oh well
I finally get to see them in May, after the concert was canceled in 2020. I love David Foster and have followed him for years! And Katherine…her voice is perfection!!
She now has the money - but she didn't have it when she met him and saw the life she could have with him and his money and status in the music business
I came to the comment section to see if anyone talked about the singer he mentioned at the end, I didnt catch the name. But, wow, the scathing comments on their relationship. I get it, there is inherently something creepy about such an age gap. But these two seem truly genuine in their love and they're very open with the fact their relationship is unconventional. Their families are happy for them and we should be too.
Oh yeah. My fiancé is 38 year older than me (I'm almost 24). And you know what, there is no day that passed by that we aren't talking. I feel like my day won't be complete without seeing him or talking to him. And I truly believe that he is my soulmate. He is eveything to me💚
I’m not sure what happened with his first wife Yolanda and their divorce..I know she was very sick with Limes disease..it seems like they divorced after that...?? What kind of compassion is that from a husband..probably he was chasing Katherine??!??
Actually kat and him have known each other for 15 years.. and they were just good friends.. what ever reason he has for leaving his wife its not her! And honestly people get divorced for many reasons and its not our place to judge! And her name is Katharine
There is an age difference, but they are both artists, they are passionate about music and that is the biggest bond, art does not care about age gender art cares about beauty love and inclusiveness
When your daughter asks you why she has to go to college, show her this video. When your son asks you why he has to go to college, show him this video.
David Foster a music genius. However, disastrous husband/mate. Give this marriage 2 years, tops!!! (That includes filing divorce papers!! Creepy old man!
I hope 🤞 Katharine won’t leave or divorced David in 10 years he really love ❤️ her! Hopefully that’s his last marriage too ! Love ❤️ is love ❤️ but sometimes after 75 going to 80 for a man with a young woman is not guaranteed just saying! I wish u the best! D & K ❤️
Let's address the elephant in the room: was he cheating on Yolanda with Katharine prior to their divorce in 2017? It seems so. It's interesting how we've normalized this. Hearts were broken and lives were torn apart. Yolanda was a beautiful person with a beautiful soul. I guess this is what happens when you marry a man that's been married three times before you get involved. Katharine is David's FIFTH wife. Not sure what he's looking for but hope he's found it.
Aging men do not marry decades younger women because they are looking for an equal partner. This relationship is about power, manipulation and control.
Conversely, a woman in her 30s marrying a 70 year old man can only mean she's with him for the money. She knows full well that he's old and wrinkled. I judge them both equally. She's a gold digger and he's a cradle snatcher. Both are equally reprehensible and anyone who supports this deserves to be judged, just as harshly.
Kamal Hussain I don’t think it’s the money more than the status. This man literally wrote and produced most of the songs for all of the best artists in our decade. He is full of connections and really is a mentor to her, boosting her face and voice out there way further than she could alone or any other person managing her. She is getting more fame just for being married to him alone, I truly believe she was not able to accomplish this all on her own even though she has accomplished minor fame on her own, so she definitely is with him for the main reason of being a really well known world wide star, after all this man even connected her to Andrea Boccelli and other major real talents and so she probably took a genuine liking to him and he definitely is admirable and still attractive even at his age. He is with her for the obvious. Young, ripe, and sexual, and someone that will follow whatever he says, not in a bad way, but makes him proud because she actually listens to him and his advice and because of what he is able to do for her. She has blossomed and glows more than ever because of everything he does for her, but where is the crime here? This couple is not doing anything others haven’t done. It’s their business honestly. They are both grown adults and they are both in show biz. It is a different world.
Wayne A. W. And do you feel better about yourself for saying that? Has that boosted your self esteem? What a rude and unnecessary comment. She never compared herself to Sara. Like WTF is wrong with you.
I came here after watching a Neil Sedaka interview where they mentioned that in the 70s David Foster was in his band playing keyboards. The picture they put was bizarre. David had real long messy hair and shades and was really skinny. He looked nothing like the guy of today. That was in 1974. The video of Neil performing Laughter In The Rain on Midnight Special had no Foster on keyboards.
He is decent looking, although I can tell he had work done...I don't blame him - he can't hide his age, but if he gets a bit of work done, spikes up his hair to look a little younger, then go for it!
What’s his appeal? I get that he’s rich and famous and extremely talented, but why would such a young girl want to be married to him? He been married like 4 times and has a ton of kids. How could she even have kids with him when he’s probably going to die before they get to high school.
I’m sorry for disappointing all of you, but what is wrong with David Foster and Katharine McPhee-Foster being together? I find David very attractive and so does Katharine, apparently. They both have so much love for music and when music is your life, you can understand how they fell in love with each other and got married. Let them just be happy together!
Watching them, I must say they show genuine affection for each other...notice how they keep reaching out and touching one another as they talk...hopefully it lasts.
She’s wasting her last youthful years if she ever plans on having children in the future. Sadly this relationship won’t last. When she finally finds a partner closer in age, it may be too late to have children by then. BUT if she doesn’t want kids, then she’s in the right place with the right person. It’s just how it is!
He’s creepy to me. I used to love the show smash! I know they say age is just a number but it’s such a big gap? I guess they have music in common? It 10 years he will be 80 and no thanks
Every aging man want a wife young enough to be able to wipe their drool and change their diaper. He's banking on her being around long enough to be his caregiver.
David's next wife will be born in 2023. On a serious note (no pun intended), I think she sees him as a way to boost her career. Marry him, pop-out a kid, get divorced in 7 years and take his cash.
Crystal McCarroll notice they said “Were crazy about each other”. Well...what about we LOVE each other but he LOVED that she took his last name...Ok. There’s got to be at least a 40 year age difference. Then they showed the daughters and she said enough about them. Hmmm. He’s GREAT for her career.
@Sara Shepard That means it's none of my business. They are Free to do whatever they choose. Think about it....I don't care what they do......to each their own!
Yes. She’s set financially for life (although there was a prenup) but he is also a very talented composer and pianist! I’m sure that was attractive to her. Not to mention the connections he has. He can also write for her, tour with her, and help her grow as an artist! She definitely got the good end of the deal. *I like David more than I like her. Although she is a great vocalist, something about her chews at me. Dunno what it is. Insincerity? I don’t know!
I actually don’t think he will. She will be his nurse as he gets into his 80’s. That is what he has in mind and was grooming her for. I think Katherine thought he selected her for love. Either way, she gets the daddy she always wanted.
