Goodnight Palm Beach: Odd couple Billy Joel and shock jock Howard Stern take their wives for low-key dinner in Florida at restaurant just 10 minutes from Trump's resort
- Pair dined with their wives at an Italian restaurant in Palm Beach, Florida
- They enjoyed a $44 dish of Chilean seabass with little neck clams
- They were joined by their wives: Alexis Roderick, 33, who is Joel’s fourth spouse and married him in 2015, and Beth Ostrosky Stern, 44
- Fellow diners said the group spent most of the evening deep in conversation
- They were seated at a quiet table at the back of the room, where both men enjoyed glasses of red Chianti wine
- Stern has said he is a 'good friend' of Donald Trump, while Joel has taken part in fundraisers for Hillary Clinton
One is a singer who once took part in a campaign fundraiser for President Obama and said he would be voting for Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election.
The other is a ‘shock jock’ DJ who once vowed ‘never to vote Democrat again’ and exchanged crude banter about Eva Longoria and Princess Diana with President Trump on his radio show.
But that wasn’t enough to prevent Billy Joel and Howard Stern from enjoying a quiet dinner together in Palm Beach, Florida, on Friday night.
The unlikely pair were seen dining at upmarket Italian restaurant Trevini where they enjoyed a $44 dish of Chilean seabass with little neck clams, shrimps and calamari and a $32 shrimp supper served with ultra-thin Capellini pasta.

According to fellow diners, the group spent most of the evening deep in conversation and were seated at a quiet table at the back of the room, where both men enjoyed glasses of red Chianti wine.
Joel, 67, and Stern, 63, are both native New Yorkers and both own homes in Palm Beach, although the singer put his up for sale for $29m in November 2015 and relisted it with $2m shaved off the price last April.
The Piano Man hitmaker has crossed paths with Stern in the past and in April 2014, took part in a SiriusXM Town Hall with the former America’s Got Talent judge in New York.

Along with performances from Pink and Tony Bennett, the event saw the notoriously media-shy Joel interviewed by Stern and take questions from celebrity guests such as NBC host Matt Lauer.
But their Friday night dinner was a far less glitzy affair, with the pair opting for a simple meal of pasta in a restaurant that bills itself as the ‘elegant’ place to ‘enjoy the best Italian food and wine in Palm Beach’.
Trevini is also a short 10-minute drive from Mar-a-Lago where Stern’s long-time friend President Trump is spending the weekend with his wife Melania.
Trump also has a long-standing relationship with Joel, who in January 2005, attended the President’s Palm Beach wedding to the First Lady.
Stern and Trump have not always seen eye to eye however, with the President left embarrassed after vintage recordings of him boasting about his sex life and rating women on Stern’s show emerged in October last year.
The DJ has also voiced concerns about Trump’s presidency, albeit out of concern that high office could prove ‘detrimental’ to the President’s health.
Speaking on February 2, he said: ‘I personally wish that he had never run - I told him that, because I actually think this is something that is going to be detrimental to his mental health.
‘Because, he wants to be liked, he wants to be loved. He wants people to cheer for him. I don't think it's going to be a healthy experience.
He added: ‘And by the way, he's now on this anti-Hollywood kick. He loves Hollywood. First of all, he loves the press.
‘He lives for it. He loves people in Hollywood. He only wants hobnob with them. All of this hatred and stuff directed towards him.
‘It's not good for him. It's not good. There's a reason every president who leaves the office has grey hair.’
Joel’s ties to the President include attending his 2005 wedding and his dedication of the song The Entertainer to Trump during his 2016 tour.
Last May, the singer told WGBH radio last May that Trump’s campaign had been ‘very entertaining’.
Joel added: ‘I am an entertainer, and I'm in the entertainment business, and in my opinion, Donald Trump's political campaign has been very entertaining.
‘Look at all the media coverage the guy is getting! Politically, do I think it holds water? But to a lot of people, I guess it does.’

In the end, Joel voted for Clinton – but told The New York Daily News that his views shouldn’t influence his fans.
‘I have no desire to influence anyone to think as I do,’ he said. ‘My personal opinion shouldn't matter to anyone with their own free will.’
The duo’s dinner came as President Trump began his third weekend in a row at Mar-a-Lago, which he has dubbed ‘the Winter White House’.
Earlier today, Trump was seen holding the hands of his granddaughter Arabella and grandson Joseph as they crossed the White House lawn to board Marine One.
The journey to Florida involved a stop at a Boeing factory in Charleston, South Carolina, while tomorrow the presidential itinerary includes a rally in Melbourne – 115 miles up the coast.
Trump’s embrace of Republican voting Florida hasn’t pleased everyone, however, with members of his Mar-a-Lago club complaining about restricted access when the President is there.

Despite paying $100,000 to join and shelling out $15,000 per year in dues, members have been left furious after being informed that they cannot even use the bar this weekend.
Speaking exclusively to DailyMail.com, one fumed: 'We are pi**ed off to no end. I personally paid $100,000 years ago (the initiation fee was upped to $200,000 last month) to join and I go to dinner at Mar-a-Lago every Saturday.
'This is the first time I'm told I can't go in. Not even for a drink at the bar! This has never happened before.
‘Friends of mine have been calling the club to tell them they want credit for not being able to go in. This president thing is getting old quickly. Donald's going to lose members.'
Neither Joel nor Stern are thought to be Mar-a-Lago members.
