One week afterJeff Lewisannounced his partner of ten years Gage Edward hadmoved out of their family home, theFlipping Outstar says he found out Edward went on a date.“We’ve been getting along pretty well until I found out that he went out on a date on Saturday night,” Lewis said on his SiriusXMradio showJeff Lewis Liveon Tuesday. The famous house flipper, 48, stated that he discovered that Edward, 33, and a companion dined at Mastro’s Steakhouse in Beverly Hills — arestaurantknown for celebrity sightings— where, Lewis claims, he was bound to be seen.“That, No. 1, is a big f—ing misstep,” said Lewis, who sharesdaughter Monroe, 2, with Edward.He didn’t reveal how he knew the details of the romantic rendezvous, but noted, “I found this out because I have excellent, accelerated and investigative interrogation skills. I’m gifted that way.”Jeff Lewis/InstagramLewis also says he confronted Edward with the information, stating, “I asked him if he had paid for the date, which he did.”“I’m sure that I’m going to be getting more information as this moves forward,” Lewis added. “But you can say that I don’t feel good about this at all.”Lewis then revealed he does not believe Edward and his date just met, suggesting instead they met at the gym some time ago.“I will not say his name, but just for today, we’re going to call him ‘home wrecker,'” Lewis said of the anonymous man. “Home wrecker, I think, has been in [Gage’s] ear for quite some long time. I think home wrecker has exploited quite a vulnerable situation. I think this person positioned himself as a gym buddy friend, and I think this person has set his sights on him for quite some time.”He added, “I don’t think [Gage is] thinking clearly, and I do not like this guy.”Lewis also made a number of claims about what he believes to be the intentions of Edward’s alleged gym buddy.“I think he was aware of what was happening. I don’t think he’s concerned about breaking up a family or jeopardizing Gage’s career or financial situation,” the Bravo star said. “I don’t think he’s concerned about that at all. I doubt this person’s intentions. We’ll just leave it at that.”After stating last week that Edward had moved into a hotel, Lewis claimed on Tuesday’s episode, that he is now moving into a “sexy, swanky, bachelor pad in Hollywood” that he is renting.Edward told PEOPLE he had no comment about the situation.Jeff Lewis/InstagramLewis also admits that in reaction to the information he believes he turned up on his estranged partner, he set up an online dating account of his own the following day.“Because I was feeling down on myself on Sunday I said, ‘Maybe it’s time to start dating,’” Lewis said on his show. “So I dabbled in the online dating world.
