Alex Lerner is Dan’s girlfriend and she is of a German native. She is a divorced mother of three. The two met in the summer of 2017 at a Hampton’s bar and struck up a conversation. before it all, they were friends just as Alex admits. Through a statement that Dan put across in a Facebook post, he revealed that he is in a relationship with the 53-year-old divorcee and mother of three, Alex Lerner.  This sparked negative responses from those who see it as inappropriate while his wife is battling with Alzheimer’s disease.

He was criticized greatly especially when people learned that he brings his girlfriend, Alex, to his house where his wife, B. Smith lives.  Dan reacted by firing shots back at the critics through a Facebook post addressing the “idiots and ignorant people calling for my arrest and saying B is or has ever been abused”.

He wrote, “I only wish someone in your immediate family has Alzheimer’s so you can see feel and experience the pain of millions of people across this country so you can know first hand what it’s like to care 24/7/365 for someone who can no longer care for themselves!”.

Alex said that she admired the fact that he was not cheating but instead he was taking care of his wife. In turn, she too began taking care of her. Alex has a room in Dan and Smith’s residence where she stays when she visits from her Manhattan’s apartment. She says that she feels good when she takes care of her, giving her something to eat or giving her something to drink or anything as long as she feels good.

Dan Gasby House

He lives with his wife and daughter in their East Hampton home.

B. Smith And Dan Gasby Sell Sag Harbor Home For $7.75 Million

Back in February, we reported that the restaurateur B. Smith and her husband, Dan Gasby, had put their Sound View Drive home on the market for $8.5 million. We can now report that only three months later the waterfront property in Sag Harbor has sold, for a reasonably close $7,750,000.

Ms. Smith and Mr. Gasby purchased the property in 1993, only months after they were married. That ceremony took place at St. Luke’s Lutheran Church in Manhattan, two blocks from the B. Smith restaurant on West 47th Street and Eighth Avenue.

Over the years, the residence, originally constructed in 1954, has undergone renovations and upgrading. Today on the .78-acre property on the East Hampton Town side of the village is a 3,400-square-foot contemporary with a stucco exterior offering 3 bedrooms and 3 baths. Amenities include an open floor-plan living room with fireplace, windowed dining area with water views, hot tub and spa, a loft with a widow’s walk, plenty of mahogany decking, and a separate pavilion in the backyard.

There are also a two-car garage, garden, and a dog run. Especially appealing is 100 feet of private beach on Sag Harbor Bay and a glimpse of the Cedar Point Lighthouse. The new owner, K&J of Amagansett LLC (which traces back to 1411 Broadway in Manhattan), will find a location that can’t be beat.

Ms. Smith was known to do shoots for her lifestyle TV show at the Sag Harbor manse, and it’s been reported that among the celebrity guests entertained there were Danny Glover and Aretha Franklin.

In the quarter-century since the couple bought the home, Ms. Smith and Mr. Gasby have some familiar faces in the Sag Harbor area. She was already well-known for being a former model and an owner of popular eateries, including a B. Smith restaurant on the Long Wharf in the village. Mr. Gasby’s career had included documentary filmmaking and television marketing. Unfortunately, in recent years the couple has been in the news because of Ms.

Smith’s struggles with Alzheimer’s disease. They chronicled that journey in the book titled “Before I Forget: Love, Hope, Help, and Acceptance in Our Fight Against Alzheimer’s,” published last year by Harmony Books. It was co-written with fellow Sag Harbor resident and Vanity Fair contributing editor Michael Shnayerson.
