Patti’s NOT on her own…
Patti LaBelle Dating Her Drummer Eric Seats
Patti LaBelle has been having an amazing past few months that included the sweet success of her Patti pies and the release of her new Patti Cakes.
Behind the scenes however she’s also been apparently experiencing some sweet black love courtesy of her drummer Eric Seats who’s 30 years her junior.
Patti LaBelle, 71, is dating her 41-year-old drummer Eric Seats, Daily Mail Online can exclusively reveal. The two have been seeing each other for the past year and a half.
‘She tried to keep it quiet, but everyone around her has figured things out now. She’s completely smitten with him and they spend so much time together,’ said the source.
The music legend and Seats first met when he was hired to be her drummer several years ago.
LaBelle was just coming out of a bad relationship, but thought Seats was attractive and she started to chat with him after her shows.
‘It wasn’t long before he was helping her heal her broken heart,’ the source revealed.
‘He made her feel at ease and she loved that he had such a vast experience working in the music business.
Seats packed up and moved across the country just to be with her. He left Los Angeles a year ago for Philadelphia – where LaBelle is based.
‘Patti was so happy he moved to Philly with her. She loves having him with her all the time. She even has a big portrait of the two of them up on her wall in her bedroom,’ told the source.
Eric has several pictures of himself and his “boss” looking coupled up.
