Which actor is the brother of Kate Spade's husband?

David Spade is the brother of Kate Spade’s husband, Andy Spade.

Kate Spade, born Katherine Noel Brosnahan, married businessman Andy Spade in 1994. Andy was also her business partner and co-founded Kate Spade New York with her, Elyce Arons, and Pamela Bell in 1993.

Andy’s younger brother, David Spade, became known as an actor, comedian, and television performer. He was a cast member and writer on Saturday Night Live from 1990 to 1996 and later starred in sitcoms including Just Shoot Me! and Rules of Engagement. Kate Spade appeared alongside him in a 2002 episode of Just Shoot Me!, making the family connection especially memorable.

A common mix-up is assuming David Spade was Kate Spade’s biological brother because they shared a surname. He was her brother-in-law through her marriage to Andy. The Spade brothers also included Bryan Spade, who worked in business and later became involved with the Kate Spade company.
