I'm ready to be a Stepford Wife! Millionaire Matchmaker Patti Stanger on finding domestic bliss with new boyfriend
Tough talking Millionaire Matchmaker Patti Stanger has made a name for herself as being self-sufficient, independent and tirelessly driven.
But the 51-year-old now seems ready to play the Stepford Wife.
The TV star has posed up in a playful photo-shoot with her boyfriend David Krausse, recreating an image of 1950s domestic bliss.
In one frame, she carries a tray to her man who is tucked up in bed while in another, she vacumes the house with rollers in her hair.
Stepford Wife: Patti Stanger, 51, posed up for a playful shoot with her new boyfriend, David Krausse
In an interview with In Touch magazine released Wednesday, the Bravo star opened up about the dynamic of her current relationship.
‘He’s the man in the relationship,’ Patti told the publication.
‘I’ve never had that before. I need that. I call the shots all day at work and I’m exhausted.’
This is quite a change from the take-charge persona she portrays on her hit Bravo television show, but it’s a change she is learning is right for her.
Ready for the domestic life: 'He's the man in the relationship,' Patti said of her boyfriend
‘I like bad boys,’ the reality star said, admitting that she’s made bad choices when it came to men in the past.
With David, however, the health of her relationship with men is turning around.
We met last April on plentyoffish.com and moved in together in September. I’ve never lived with anyone before!’ Patti told In Touch.

Revealing further more, she said: 'Fans would be shocked to see how domestic I really am!'
Even though she admitted some old fashion traits she had previously hidden from cameras and the partners she had dated, there is one topic that Patti is always frank about.
When it came to talking about between-the-sheets action with her beau, she said: ‘We’re different. But we have big chemistry and great sex – and that’s important!’
Though she isn’t engaged yet, she does don a David Yurman promise ring that was given to her by her sweetie on Christmas.
That doesn’t mean she hasn’t thought out what her wedding would be like, though.
‘I’d have a hundred of my closest friends and family,’ Patti told In Touch.
‘Reem Acra would be my dress designer. We’d have a great band – I’d love some Motown. And I’d be all about the food!’
