Lily-Rose Depp and Austin Butler Seen Kissing After Date in London

Lily-Rose Depp, 22, and Austin Butler, 29, have found themselves in the center of the rumor mill with suggestions that the two actors could be a new couple. 

On August 9, the Mail Online published a series of photos that show the pair packing on the PDA in the streets of London after reportedly enjoying dinner together. The pictures show Depp and Butler hugging and kissing on the sidewalk, which has led many to believe the two are a new romantic item.

As you might know, Depp was previously romantically linked to British model Ash Stymest; the pair dated for a few years before parting ways. It was reported that she later dated fellow actor Timothée Chalamet in 2018. The pair are believed to have met while filming The King and called it quits sometime in 2020—though neither officially addressed the relationship during the period they were together. Earlier this year, rumors started circulating about the pair potentially rekindling their relationship.

Butler, on the other hand, dated High School Musical actor Vanessa Hudgens from 2011 until 2019. In January 2020 it was reported that the pair had split.

Both Austin Butler and Lily-Rose Depp have a busy schedule ahead. Butler is currently filming his starring role in Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis Presley biopic, as well as a TV mini series called Masters of the Air. Depp, meanwhile, has two movies set for release this year—Silent Night (starring Keira Knightley) and the drama Wolf.

While both Depp and Butler have active social media accounts, the pair are quite reserved when it comes to their personal lives. They are also yet to publicly address the nature of their relationship, so until they do, it’s best to take everything with a grain of salt.
