For Don Lemon, dating hasn’t been easy.
“I’m never sure why people are interested in me,” the CNN anchor told Metrosource magazine, in their People We Love issue. “Is it because of me? Is it because of what I do? Is it because they think they’re gonna get some sort of fame, or … I have no idea.”
Before meeting his boyfriend, real estate agent Tim Malone, Lemon said he was “probably not so trusting of people wanting to get into a relationship with me.”
Lemon and Malone met several years ago at a Hamptons restaurant.
“He was seeing someone and I was playing the field,” he confessed. “They broke up and we got together, but we knew each other as friends for a year and a half.”
The couple, who have been together for two years, took their relationship public when they were photographed walking hand-in-hand to a “Saturday Night Live” afterparty.
Lemon often shares photos from the couple’s vacations and adventures on social media. If there was any doubt that Lemon is in love, in August he shared a group shot with their pup with the caption “#modernfamily.”
