Sandra Lee and fiancé Ben Youcef spotted kissing, holding hands in NYC

PDA in NYC.

Sandra Lee and her fiancé, Ben Youcef, put their affection on display during a romantic stroll through Central Park on Saturday.

The couple were spotted kissing and staring into each other’s eyes during the outing.

The TV chef and the “Algerian” actor were also spotted wrapping their arms around each other as they enjoyed the spring weather.

Lee, 56, dressed casually for the day trip, wearing a pair of gaucho jeans, a beige turtleneck and a black jacket. She completed the look with a pair of black boots, gold hoop earrings, sunglasses and a nude clutch.

Youcef, on the other hand, also dressed down for the outing. The actor, 44, rocked an outfit similar to his fiancée’s, wearing a pair of blue jeans, a cream sweater and a black coat.

He also sported a pair of brown boots and a pair of aviator shades.

Their Central Park stroll comes just days after Page Six exclusively learned that Lee — the ex-girlfriend of ousted Gov. Andrew Cuomo — would be relocating from Los Angeles back to the Big Apple.

Last month, she and Youcef, who is dad to twins Harris and Hannah with his ex-wife, Apryl Stephenson, celebrated their two-year anniversary at Bistro Les Amis in Soho.

“They love New York. She’s not as happy in LA. He’s got kids, so he’ll be back and forth,” a source close to the couple told us last month.

Lee moved to LA in 2019 following her split from Cuomo after 14 years of dating.

“Over the recent past, we have realized that our lives have gone in different directions and our romantic relationship has turned into a deep friendship,” the former couple said in a joint statement at the time.

“We will always be family and are fully supportive of each other and dedicated to the girls,” they added, referring to the ex-politician’s three daughters from his previous marriage to Kerry Kennedy.

“Our personal lives remain personal and there will be no further comment.”

Lee and Youcef began dating in 2021 after meeting at a restaurant in Santa Monica, Calif.

That August, the Food Network star and the actor got engaged and were photographed celebrating their relationship milestone in Paris.

As far as a wedding date goes, a source told Page Six that the couple are “definitely in the midst of planning their wedding” and “looking at places in New York and the Hamptons.”
