Everything Is A-Ok With Shea Gallante and Charles Masson. There's a Pic to Prove It

When restaurant legend Charles Masson announced he was leaving Shea Gallante's Chevalier just a month in, rumors started to circulate. Page Six reported that an insider said Masson seemed "miserable." A claim that Gael Greene seemed to back up, but the restaurant insisted the breakup was amicable — think Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin's conscious uncoupling. Just to prove everything's a-ok, Gallante just posted this to Instagram:

Hardly what I consider a 'falling out'.... Such a great guy and inspiration! #charlesmasson #flowerguy #chuck

Since those are peonies in hand (and they just came into season) that picture is probably pretty fresh.
