Was Seal Surprised to Hear About Yolanda Hadid and David Foster's Divorce?
The singer dished on his friends' split on #WWHL.
We've seen Yolanda Hadid and David Foster rub elbows with many of music's elite on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, from Babyface to Steven Tyler to Andrea Bocelli. That's just how it is when you're a legendary songwriter and music producer like David Foster.
Seal, another one of Yolanda and David's famous friends, dished on the couple during his appearance on Watch What Happens Live Thursday. "Yes, I did know them as a couple. I do know them very well. They're both friends of mine," Seal responded to a caller's question about his relationship to the couple (clip above).
In fact, Seal has worked with David many times throughout his career, including on his 2008 album Soul, his 2010 album Commitment, and his 2011 album Soul 2. They've even performed together.
Considering how close Seal was to the couple, was he surprised to hear the news of their divorce last December? "I think any time you hear somebody splitting up, it's never a good thing, initially," Seal explained. "Was I surprised? I guess so, yes."
Seal wasn't as sure about how he felt about his hit "Kiss from a Rose" appearing in an episode of The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story. See what he had to say on WWHL, below.
