Patti LaBelle Dating Her Drummer
R&B icon Patti LaBelle dating her 41 year-old drummer...
Insiders tell The Daily Mail Patti LaBelle, 71, and Eric Seats, 41, have been quietly dating for over a year.
Apparently Ms. Patti had just gotten out of a bad relationship and turned to Eric to help heal her broken heart.
The source claims Eric, who has toured with Patti LaBelle for years, even left LA to move in with Patti in Philadelphia.
Though Eric is accomplished in his own right, having toured with Stevie Wonder, Mary J. Blige and produced songs for Destiny's Child and Aaliyah, Patti LaBelle's 42-year-old son/manager Zuri Edwards is said to be displeased with the union.
Eric Seats is currently on tour in Europe with Jazz singer Lalah Hathaway.
