Mayor Eric Adams was surprise guest at former Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s 65th birthday party, we hear.
A group of 75 former top staffers and pals gathered at Kenneth Cole and Maria Cuomo Cole’s swank Sutton Place spread in Manhattan, sources said, on Tuesday night to celebrate Cuomo.
Maria is Andrew’s sister, and has been married to the fashion designer since 1987.
Toasts were given by former top aides including Steve Cohen, Bill Mulrow and Melissa DeRosa before a red velvet cake with sparklers was wheeled out.
As the night wound down, we hear, party-hopping mayor Adams showed up unexpectedly with outgoing chief of staff Frank Carrone and incoming chief of staff Camille Varlack, who used to work for Cuomo.
“The vibe in the room was an outpouring of love and friendship,” said one spy at the event. “Everyone was so happy to be together and celebrate… while raising a glass to the gov.”
Former pol Cuomo and Adams have been close during the NYC mayor’s tenure. Earlier this year, we reported that the duo dined at Daniel Boulud’s French eatery Le Pavillon for dinner in a private room.
They’d previously met for about two hours back in February at Midtown hotspot Osteria La Baia, and Adams later revealed that Cuomo gave him some “creative ideas” during their get-together.
Adams famously loves to socialize and has been a regular on the city’s gala circuit, including the famed Met Gala, as well as at hotspots including Zero Bond and Aman NY.
