Sandra Lee sees wedding bells in her future with Gov. Cuomo

New York's First Girlfriend, celebrity chef Sandra Lee, said she sees wedding bells in her future with Gov. Cuomo.
But it doesn't sound like she'll be preparing a semi-homemade wedding cake just yet.
"We'll get married some day," Lee told the New York Observer. "It's been nine years. We talk about it. It's not like we don't know we're going to do it."
Both Lee and Cuomo have previous failed marriages.
In 2011, she told Vogue magazine that as she walked up the down the aisle, "I remember thinking, it's not too late to run."
But even then, she raised the specter of a lifetime commitment with Cuomo.
"Right now I'm happy being a girlfriend, but someday Andrew and I will get there," she told Vogue. "When his kids say we need to, we will."
Cuomo has three teenage daughters with ex-wife Kerry Kennedy.
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo receives a kiss on the cheek from his partner Sandra Lee.

Cuomo in his recently-released memoir called Lee, who he met in 2005 at a Hamptons cocktail party. a "godsend."
He described Lee as smart, successful and gorgeous. He called her his "opposite"--a west coast woman with expertise in cooking, entertaining, and decorating.
She was also a businesswoman who had never heard of New York politics, he wrote.
"I quickly fell in love with her," he wrote. "Why she got involved with me I don't know. I was not much of a catch."
The governor also praised her relationship with his three kids. "My children took to her immediately,and as they've grown older, she has been a significant presence in their lives," he wrote. "We have made a family."
Lee assumed a higher-profile role with Cuomo this fall, when she appeared with the governor in a campaign ad and at parades.
“I don’t really have any official responsibilities,” she told the Observer. "He’s very good with me. He says, ‘you know, honey, you can do anything you want, or nothing at all.’ He’s very good about giving me the flexibility and letting me be comfortable in whatever role. And I need a lot of space. I need someone who understands who I am."
While Lee expects to someday marry Cuomo, she made no predictions about whether the couple might ever take up residence at the White House given the widespread belief that the governor holds national aspirations.

"Oh God," she said. "We're not even thinking about that, honey. I have no aspirations. Absolutely not one."
