Cuffing season is creeping up fast, and celeb world is responding by delivering us all the new hot couples. But could Austin Butler and Emily Ratajkowski be joining their ranks?
The internet is in meltdown after pictures of Emily and Austin cosying up over drinks emerged over the weekend. The duo were spotted grabbing cocktails together in a booth at the West Village nightspot, the Waverly Inn. In the image obtained by TMZ, the pair are in deep conversation with Austin's arm on the back of the booth behind her.
Of course, this comes just weeks after Austin was linked to Zoe Kravitz - but this is old news. Over the weekend, Zoe appeared to 'confirm' her romance with Harry Styles on an outing in New York City, where they even sported matching outfits. Aww.
Is Austin Butler dating Emily Ratajkowski?
Ok, nothing has been officially confirmed yet but for fans, the pictures that emerged over the weekend are pretty conniving. Users took to X to share their thoughts on the pairing. 'Wtf??? Harry with Zoe and Austin with Emily? Boyfriend/girlfriend swap?' one user wrote. Another quipped 'He definitely has a type, am I right?'
However, others pointed to the fact that they could just be friends. 'And just because these two are grabbing drinks at a restaurant does not necessarily mean they are a couple, but maybe just friends grabbing drinks together,' one user wrote.
This isn't the first time Austin and Emily have crossed paths recently. Last week, they both attended the afterparty for the Caught Stealing premiere, and were spotted together in a picture of the event shared by writer Matt Weinberger.
Was Austin Butler dating Zoe Kravitz?
Rumours about a potential romance between Zoë and Austin Butler have been circulating since October 2024 after they were pictured kissing on the set of their upcoming film. However, last month sources told TMZ that the actors are 'just friends' and 'not dating like some are implying'.
In fact, Zoë has now been linked to Harry Styles. In August, the pair were pictured walking around Rome together, and have since been spotted out and about in New York City. Neither Zoë nor Harry have publicly confirmed their romance, but speculation on the internet is rife. While previous sources have suggested that Harry and Zoë are just hooking up, another source speaking to Page Six this weekend said their romance is 'no mere fling.'
They told the outlet: 'I feel like they’ve gone from 0-60. It’s so hard to date as a celebrity - Harry wouldn’t have gone public with Zoë if it wasn’t anything. (But) it’s very new and fresh and they’re just having fun.'
