Diane Alexander dating Dave Kenney after divorce from Lionel Richie

Diane Alexander is known to be in a relationship with an army. Dave Kenney with whom she has been dating since 2015. According to some sites, she is engaged to the man. Before she started dating Kenney, she was in a long-term married relationship with the singer. Lionel Richie .

Diane Alexander met Lionel Richie in 1986, while he was still married to his ex-wife, insider Harvey. The couple’s relationship was a secret until Brenda surprised her husband Lionel and Diane together in a Beverly Hills hotel room in 1988 where she went through room service. The singer was then accused of numerous accusations, and they later divorced in 1993.

Two years after the separation, Diane married Lionel in 1995. The couple gave birth to a child, Miles Brockman Richie before their marriage, born in 1994. They also have a daughter named Sofia Richie, born on August 24, 1998, who is now a model.

The couple was living a happy life until Lionel decided to part ways due to their irreconcilable personal differences. He said that,

Look when Diane and I got together, I wasn’t working. And she and I liked the person she was then, thank you! But one day I found out that she would go back to work. And that’s not good! Because I just couldn’t, I just couldn’t.

They divorced in 2003, which has been noted as one of the most expensive divorces in celebrity history. After her divorce, Alexander was arrested for spousal abuse, trespassing and vandalism after she hit her ex-husband Richie of hers. But then the charges were dropped.

After their divorce, Alexander has kept a low-key life. But recently, some sources reported that Alexandra is dating a mystery man whose name we learned is Dave Kenney who works for the Ventura County Sheriff. The couple also got engaged in late 2015. She often shares photos together with her fiancé on her Instagram account. More about her love story is not revealed.
