Age can’t stop love!
Prominent hedge funder Larry Leeds, who was the chairman of Buckingham Capital Management until 2019, proves just that as he is planning to marry philanthropist and socialite Ginger Feuer.
The 93-year old Leeds says he is still spry and won’t let age stop him from being together with 75-year old Feuer.
Leeds was previously married to Dalia Leeds for 60 years and Feuer was married to Myron Feuer for 45 years, but both their partners have passed away.
The four were noted to be close friends and spent vacations together.
Leeds and Feuer, who have known each other for 40 years, reconnected at a dinner party as widows in Palm Beach, Fla., and had their first date at Sistina on New York’s Upper East Side.
It seems widowhood brought these two together as they shared similar pains and helped heal each other.
Feuer said, “Leeds has been the most perfect gentleman. He walks me to my accommodations and kisses me goodnight. There was an unexpected spark between us.”
They have been together for a year and a half. Leeds proposed last October with the words, “I want to spend the rest of my life with you.”
He said he loves Feuer’s red hair, vivacious character, and sensuality.
Feuer, meanwhile, says she admires Leeds for his handsome looks and intelligence.
The couple will tie the knot in front of Rabbi Joshua Davidson from Temple Emanu-El at the home of Feuer’s son and daughter-in-law, Matthew Feuer and Liz Toll Feuer, we hear.
Forty guests are expected including Apax Partners’ Alan Patricof, JP Morgan’s John Rosenwald, art collectors Robbi and Bruce Toll and Leeds’ daughters Ashley and Tracy.
Freuer has worked with Alzheimer’s Drug Discovery Foundation, American Cancer Society and City Meals on Wheels.
Leeds, the former CEO of Manhattan Industries, which launched fashion brand Perry Ellis, is also involved in charity and running a family foundation. He is now focused on the Cary Leeds Center for Tennis and Learning in the Bronx, which he founded in honor of his late son.
The couple are also active on the Palm Beach and NYC social circuit.
