Billy Joel’s ex-wife Katie Lee has spoken about the pain of their split

Billy Joel’s ex-wife Katie Lee has spoken about the pain of their split – but insisted: “We’ve remained friends.

“Just because you’ve split up doesn’t mean those feelings just end.

“I really want him to be happy and I think he wants the same for me.”

The couple’s split this summer came as a shock to fans of the Piano Man who thought he had finally settled down.

Promoting her new cook book on the Rachael Ray Show, Katie Lee did not go into details behind the split. But she insisted: “Ninety-nine percent of what you read isn’t true. So I don’t read it – I don’t introduce that negativity into my life.”

Of the split, she added: “It is hard to go through – it’s not easy – and doing it in front of everybody makes it even harder.

“But I have a great support group. People I didn’t even know reached out to me on Facebook and Twitter and sent me their favourite break-up recipes!”
