Fredrick R. Koch, the billionaire Koch brother you don’t hear about, has been stepping out with wealthy socialite Margo Langenberg.

They were spotted at the School of American Ballet Winter Ball on Monday, chaired by his sister-in-law, Julia Koch, in the Lincoln Center theater named after his brother David H. Koch.

Fred attended Harvard and Yale and, unlike his more famous younger brothers David and Charles, is more interested in the arts than politics.

Worth an estimated $2 billion, he’s on the boards of the Metropolitan Opera and the Film Society of Lincoln Center and is one of the world’s most important collectors of rare books.

Koch and Langenberg’s friendship has blossomed over the last six years, and she has visited him at his grand homes around the world that include a Tudor mansion in Butler, Pa., his villa Torre Clementina in France, and his Schloss Bluhnbach near Salzburg, Austria.

Fred, 82, has never been married, previously denied he was gay, and remains on international eligible-bachelor lists. A source added, “They are very good friends.”
