Hollywood doesn’t have the best track record for romance, and having a relationship while living in the public eye comes with added pressure. Is this what got to Katharine McPhee and her husband, David Foster? The couple married in 2019, but their relationship has recently come under question, with a new report claiming they are taking part in couples counseling.
“Katharine and David were eager to learn the tools they need to better communicate,” a source told Life&Style. “They found a counselor who was recommended by friends. Now they are working hard to build a stronger relationship.” The pair are reportedly trying to deal with their problems correctly, and they’re doing this by acknowledging they need help.
If the report is to be believed, then it is excellent that Foster and McPhee are willing to work on their relationship, perhaps even more so because they share a child, a son named Rennie (Foster is also the father of five other children from previous relationships).
Katharine McPhee and David Foster Have an Age Gap Romance
Something worth noting is their significant age difference. McPhee is 40, and Foster is 74. Age gap relationships are often criticized, and many believe a 34-year gap is too much. Could their lives be in different stages? “They sometimes have no common ground and often argue from perspectives that are miles apart,” the source said, claiming that this includes their approach to raising their young son.
There have also been claims about Foster’s alleged treatment of his wife. “Katharine hates when David treats her like a child or a possession,” the source shared. “They need to learn how to speak to each other better!”
Foster has been married four times before, and McPhee was married once before to Nick Cokas for eight years. Let’s hope that if the reports about their marriage is true, they are able to find their way back to each other and become stronger than ever!
