I’m pretty sure she’s fine, I wonder where she’ll land at next. The timing is a bit ironic with all the rumors of the Tiffany partnership ending.

That's what I'm thinking... But I guess we will wait and see how Patek responds to this. I'm sure they have been thinking and evaluating their options for a while now.

If Patek does respond, it will be due to the LVMH merger and not due to Kelly leaving Tiffany. Her departure has no bearing on the current Patek/Tiffany relationship. Will have to see what happens when the merger closes early 2021...

I don’t think PP liked all the publicity around Kelly. The star is the brand, not the salesperson. Might be the reason she is gone...

Why is this even a BREAKING NEWS topic? (forgive me, OP, this isn't a jab against you)

No it's not.

In fact, FYI, the NYC Salon Management had more pull than she did with respect to allocation of pieces. They just choose not to because she had it covered, and she had all the relationships.

The ties between Patek and Tiffany run deep through the top of Tiffany executive management. That's the whole point, and the whole reason why they are even able to do the stamps.

I met her a few times and found her to be terrific even though I never bought any pieces from her. Hopefully she goes someplace else local in the city or nearby

Maybe Patek is opening their own boutique in Manhattan???

Christie's or Sotheby's pulling in her ex-customers' Tiffany stamped Pateks for auction.

Just looked her up on LinkedIn - she needs to change her employment status. Good luck to her in finding a new job.
