After almost two months of persistent rumors about a budding relationship between them, the time has finally come to accept that Pete Davidson and Kate Beckinsale are an actual, bona fide couple. This development comes on the heels of yet another reported dinner date, this time at the Waverly Inn in New York City.
According to the reports, Davidson and Beckinsale were saw dining at the restaurant on Thursday evening. For the occasion, Beckinsale was wearing a “very good” ponytail and Davidson looked “goofy,” but despite this seeming disparity, the duo nonetheless came across as “very cute,” per the eyewitness.
This date marks at least the third public outing for the pair—not to mention their private hangouts, nor the multiple allusions they’ve made to one another throughout this time—which seems like a consistent enough stream of rendezvous to officially push Davidson and Beckinsale into full-blown celebrity couple territory.
Reports of their relationship first surfaced in early January, when they were seen spending a considerable amount of time together at Netflix’s Golden Globes afterparty. “They were being very flirty together, they were sitting very close on the outside patio seating,” the source said. “Kate had her hand on his knee, and she kept laughing at all his jokes.”
People had its own source basically make the same point: This is not going to lead to wedding bells right now or even an official boyfriend title for Davidson. “Kate’s not looking to get serious with someone,” the outlet’s source said. “She wants to have fun with guys and date around.”
