David left Yolanda while she had Lyme disease
His decision was harmful
Since their split, Yolanda and David have said little about what led them to go their separate ways. Back in the good old days, they looked so happy at their wedding, which is shown in the clip above. However, there was a lot of speculation.
The duo separated while Yolanda battled Lyme disease. It doesn’t look good when one partner bails out while the other is sick. It seems like they are just out for themselves. The optics made David look like a selfish and miserable creep.
In David’s 2020 Netflix documentary, David Foster: Off the recordThe musician denied speculations that he got tired of Yolanda when she was sick because she could no longer handle his desires and needs. “How can I leave a sick wife? The fact is, that’s not what I left,David said in his documentary, as reported by us weekly.
He noted the “Other reason“what he”Will never disclose.David said.
“But it has nothing to do with her being sick.“
The acclaimed songwriter admitted that his high-profile marriages to Yolanda, Linda Thompson, Rebecca Dyer and BJ Cook may have overshadowed his musical success. He had many partners, and he tends to run away when the going gets tough.
Yolanda and David did not share children together
Yolanda’s children are famous
Yolanda and David did not welcome any children together. The couple already has children from previous marriages. Yolanda’s three children, Gigi, Bella and Anwar Hadid, are shared with her ex-husband, Mohamed Hadid. Yolanda and Mohamed were married for six years before divorcing in 2000.

David Foster & Katherine McPhee get mocked
He plays up their age gap
David was trusted for dating (and then marrying) a woman who was young enough to be his child. Rich and famous people often do this, and David doesn’t really care what people say. In fact, he made a comment on Instagram (as seen above) that basically taunted his haters. David posted a shot of him and a very young Catherine with the caption:
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY BABY!!!!
18 years ago!!!! Still going strong!!Fans
Fans did not take this well. Catherine looked so young in the photo and David was hovering close to her, looking all too happy. It freaks people out. One distraught follower posted:
Your daughter looks nothing like you!
Another was even harsher:
Still going strong? That sounds like they never stopped their “relationship” from the day they met.. 18 years ago.
The latest Instagram user is basically saying that David is cheating on Yolanda with Catherine. It’s not impossible, but he didn’t really own it. Maybe Catherine was the undisclosed reason why David left the relationship.
Yolanda Hadid seems to be with a children’s man
He seems to be emotionally present for Yolanda
Yolanda Looks so healthy and relaxed when she is with her new partner. He apparently gives her the love and attention she needs. Maybe David was too big of a star – women seemed to orbit around him rather than the center of his universe. When a woman does him wrong or his wandering eye gets the best of him, he ends things.
Yes, he is dedicated to Catherine now, but things can change. He has a very poor track record. In her new relationship, Yolanda is more confident. Of course, every woman deserves that in a relationship. So, although her divorce was painful, especially as she was sick when her husband pulled the plug on their marriage, it was for the best.
Yolanda is working, and in 2022, she is filming Holland’s top model. Her three children are all models – Gigi is probably the most successful. She moved to television by appearing in Next in fashion. Bella is known for her high-profile relationship with Abel Tesfaye (The Weeknd). The romance did not last.
As for David, he did not care for his time on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. In his documentary, he slammed the show and anyone who criticized him for appearing on it. “Hey, I got 16 F-King Grammys, okay? I sold half a billion records. F—K that show“, he said. Yolanda has put David and reality TV behind her and is focusing on her current romance. She is also devoted to her children and grandchildren.

According to the article, Joseph proposed to the former model while they were in Holland, where Yolanda was born and raised. Before they got engaged, they met on Yolanda’s farm in Pennsylvania, and the rest is history.
Joseph is the CEO of a construction and development company. He and Yolanda made their red carpet debut together at the Global Lyme Alliance’s annual gala back in late 2019. Joseph was with Yolanda through thick and thin, which is why they make the perfect couple.
