Those tuning in to watch the 2025 US Open got a glimpse of Bobby Flay sharing a smooch with his girlfriend, Brooke Williamson.
The pair attended the annual tennis tournament at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center on Thursday, September 4. During a match, the camera panned to Flay, 60, and Williamson, 47, as she wrapped her arm around his neck and gave him a passionate kiss.
Viewers reacted to the PDA moment on X, with many admitting they didn’t know Flay and Williamson were dating.
“I was today years old finding out Bobby Flay and Brooke Williamson were a couple lol. Come on Food Network linkup! ✨#USOpen,” one person wrote, as another person said, “@ChefBrookeW are you dating Bobby flay?! #USOpen2025 #bobbyflay.”
“I might be crazy but I’m pretty certain I saw @ChefBrookeW kiss @bflay at the #USOpen,” a third person penned, while a fourth person wrote, “Bobby Flay is with Brooke Williamson? I’m learning a lot from watching the #USOpen.”
Williamson also shared photos and videos of her night at the US Open via her Instagram Stories.
Flay and Williamson, who is also a chef, were first linked in March after filming BBQ Brawl. He opened up about their romance and working on the show together three months later.
“Well, first of all, I’ve been friends with Brooke forever,” he told People in June. “I mean, she and I have been friends for a long time and so we shot this show before we started actually officially dating. So it has always kind of been the same for me.”

Flay continued, “She’s been on the show basically since the inception. So it’s always been fun to kind of have her around because we’ve been friends, but now going forward, it’s a little bit different. So we’ll see what that brings.”
Flay said that he and the Top Chef season 14 winner “have a lot in common.”
“We’re very lucky,” he gushed. “We’re both chefs. We both have kids. We’re both parents.”
Flay shares daughter Sophie, 29, with ex-wife Kate Connelly, while Williamson shares son Hudson, 17, with ex-husband Nick Roberts.
Fans of Flay may also recognize Williamson from her appearances on Bobby’s Triple Threat and Beat Bobby Flay.
“We are both in the restaurant business,” Flay said of their similarities. “We have tons to talk about in terms of the things that we love to do besides just go and have dinner every once in a while. So it’s been really great.”
