Ty Pennington

Ty Pennington and his angry girlfriend made a dramatic last minute entrance onto a flight from Chicago to LAX a week ago. Just before the doors were locked, they nabbed the last two seats on the plane and Ty’s pretty blonde girlfriend/manager Drea Bock was annoyed because it was coach and not first class. “We should’ve waited for the next flight!” she grumbled. Drea was NOT happy to be rushed and struggling to find space for their carry on luggage. The male flight attendant cheered them up by offering snacks, headphones, water – everything free. Peacemaker Ty eventually managed to calm Drea. We were surprised to hear that Ty gets a bit nervous at take-off. An observer told us that Ty has a little ritual – when the plane took off he crossed the fingers on his right hand and sat very still with his hand on his leg until it was over. He did the same thing when the plane landed. Apparently Drea is used to it (they’ve been together eight years) – she paid no attention.
