Carole Radziwill’s ex-boyfriend, Adam Kenworthy, was practically drooling over another “Real Housewives of New York City” alum at a recent party in the Big Apple, Page Six has learned.
An eyewitness who was at the June 2 soirée – an exclusive event at the Park Lane New York hotel in Manhattan – tells us the celebrity chef, 37, spent his “whole” evening intensely “checking out” Kelly Bensimon, who was in a strapless black dress and boots.
Our insider says Kenworthy did nothing to hide his apparent crush, telling us that “many other” attendees also took note of his fixation on the 54-year-old supermodel.
As Bensimon was leaving the party, we’re told Kenworthy managed to say hello from afar, which elicited a “smile and wave” from the former reality star.
He also got one last very obvious look at Bensimon’s booty as she exited the venue, according to the insider.
However, the admiration was apparently not reciprocated.
“While it may be true that Kenworthy was ‘eyeing Kelly all night’ at the opening event for the Park Lane hotel, they never actually spoke that evening – or ever for that matter – nor does she even know who he is,” a rep for Bensimon told us.
Page Six has also reached out to Kenworthy for comment.
Meanwhile, a friend of Kenworthy’s tells us that “there is nothing going on here” and that the information we received is “incorrect.”
On the topic of his love life, the pal adds that the recent rumors about him also being romantically linked to Elle Macpherson are untrue, insisting he “is not dating” and “has never dated” the Australian supermodel.
Kenworthy and Macpherson, 58, have known each other for some time. In November 2018, they were photographed jetting out of a Sydney airport together on business for her brand, WellCo, for which he is an ambassador.
But the two really sparked romance rumors in April when they released an Instagram video in promotion of Earth Day.
In the short clip, Kenworthy was seen giving Macpherson an intimate hug from behind as she leaned into him and let out a flirtatious belly laugh.
“Are you two together? So cute!” one person commented, with another adding, “Oh my God you guys are so adorable!!!”
A third user pointed out, “He definitely has a thing for older women.”
Interestingly enough, both Macpherson and Bensimon were married to French fashion photographer Gilles Bensimon from 1986 to 1989 and from 1997 to 2007, respectively.
