Kate and Andy Spade

Late fashion designer Kate Spade met her husband, Andy Spade, when she was working in sales at Carter’s Men Shop while still in college. Kate married Andy Spade, brother of actor-comedian David Spade, back in 1994. The lovebirds had one child, Frances Beatrix Spade, born in 2005.

The Spades, who founded her bright and bold namesake band together in the early 1990s, were married for 24 years. While the Spades had been living separated and were moving toward separation when Kate passed away in 2018, the two reportedly had remained close friends. Sadly, the 55-year-old designer was found dead in 2018. Her death was ruled a suicide.
