Giada De Laurentiis Says Boyfriend Once Challenged Her to a ‘Sauce Off’

Giada De Laurentiis revealed how her boyfriend, Shane Farley, improved his cooking skills during their 10-year relationship after a memorable 'sauce off'

Giada De Laurentiis knows that in the kitchen, as in love, it always helps to add a little spice — something she promptly put into practice when she met boyfriend Shane Farley. “It’s been 10 years now with Shane [and] he was a pretty good cook before he met me,” De Laurentiis, 54, told Us Weekly exclusively while promoting her partnership with Peroni Italian Beer Ice. “It took a while for me to make this decision because I was very fearful of leaving Food Network,” De Laurentiis, 53, said on the Tuesday, April 23, episode of Rebecca Minkoff’s “Superwomen” podcast.
