Sandie Loyally: Husband Paramount To Her Success
All the feats she was able to achieve, Sandie couldn’t have done so had it not been for her supportive husband, Michael Rinaldo. On her every stumble, he was there to balance her, and on her every sprint, he was there cheering her from the sideline.
Due to the tragic nature of life, her husband died in 2005 after a long struggle against cancer. However, she remains loyal to him even today which is evidenced her frequent statements on how important he was to her success.
The best advice I can give any woman or person who wants to have a family and have a career is, choose your partner wisely.

What is even more significant evidence of her loyalty is that after about 13 years after the death of her husband, Sandie is still single and not willing to commit with anyone else.

Plastic Surgery Rumors, Did Sandie Get One?
The fact that at the age of 68 Sandie still looks quite fresh- like a young woman at the peak of her womanhood- gave rise to the rumors that she might have gone through plastic surgery.
While plastic surgery has become very common, especially for the people on television, there is no concrete evidence that Sandie might have gotten one.
To be honest, one can't think of Sandie going through a plastic surgery since she is already an established journalist and not actually looking for a husband. However, if she did get plastic surgery, it was probably to boost her morale, which must be a little down since her husband passed away.
