Obama aide ties knot with MSNBC host
Print Edition
US President Barack Obama’s chef Sam Kass and MSNBC host Alex Wagner have tied the knot at Blue Hill at Stone Barns, a farm-to-table restaurant, just north of New York City.
Obama and Kass have a close relationship, which Obama highlighted earlier this month by spending several hours at dinner at Kass’ apartment amid the turmoil in Iraq, Ukraine and Ferguson, Missouri.
It’s long been said that time is a president’s most precious commodity. That Obama would spend five hours at Kass’ home on one of the aide’s final evenings as a bachelor was a testament to their bond.
Obama’s rounds of golf are often his only other outings that last as long — and those games sometimes include Kass.
Obama, his wife Michelle, and their daughters Malia and Sasha, attended the ceremony and reception on Saturday at the restaurant, which is a favorite of both Kass and Mrs Obama. The first lady hosted the spouses of world leaders there in 2010.
The first family spent about six hours at the wedding.
The union of Kass, 34, and Wagner, 36, also served to highlight what some contend is too much togetherness between the media and the people they report on. Naturally, the guest list was expected to include staff from both the White House and the liberal-leaning cable news outlet.
Kass began preparing meals for the Obamas when the family lived in Chicago and the Obamas persuaded him to join them at the White House. He is now among the Obamas’ longest-serving aides.
