Joel, who was previously married twice, including to supermodel Christie Brinkley, has had more than two dozen Top 10 hits, including his signature song ``Piano Man,'' which was released in 1973 and became a hit the next year.
Last month, Joel's star was placed on Hollywood Boulevard in front of the Pantages Theatre, where the Tony Award-winning musical based on his songs, ``Movin' Out,'' is playing through Oct. 31. He is also a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Lee, a native of Huntington, W.Va., recently graduated from Ohio's Miami University and works as a restaurant correspondent for the PBS show ``George Hirsch: Living It Up!'' She and Joel began dating last year, according to Newsday.
For those that were wondering, his daughter is the girl in the black dress.
