Chelsea Handler and Andre Balazs back together
OHMYGOSSIP — Chelsea Handler is off the market. The Hollywood funnywoman has reunited with boyfriend Andre Balazs. The pair split in November last year after six months of dating but has since decided to give the romance another chance.
“It was extremely time consuming and it was really, really hard for me to focus on anything at all. He lived in New York and I lived in LA, and it was a constant back and forth, flying and meeting each other,” she said.
“[It] kind of took the wind out of me. . . it drained me from my career, it drained me from my work. I wasn’t focused on anything. It was just stress. It was just exhausting. But I prefer a long distance relationship because I don’t really want to deal with someone on a daily basis.”
Chelsea — who was dating then–Comcast executive Ted Harbert, who supervised the E! Network, when she got her big break — recently insisted she didn’t sleep her way to the top
“Ted Harbert is not responsible for me selling four books on the New York Times list,” she said last month.
“He’s not responsible for me selling out arenas. All he did was recognize talent. He put Roseanne Barr on the air. He put Brett Butler on the air. This is a guy who notices female comedians, and he noticed me. You don’t get a TV show because you’re sleeping with someone. That’s when you get a walk-on role as, like, a female police officer.”
