The on-screen pair were spotted kissing on the streets of Los Angeles, and according to reports by Life & Style, the two of them are currently dating and seeing where their ‘relationship’ goes. The insider also added,

No one on the show is surprised to see them hooking up. People on the set would see them hanging out at lunchtime and during breaks. Now they’ve taken a step forward, and everyone’s happy for them.

The report also suggested that White and Gordon were crushing on each other for a long time but didn’t act upon it due to White’s romance with Rosalía, which apparently has fizzled out. The sources further added that the actor is looking for a steady girlfriend, and everyone‘s counting on Gordon to be that for him.

After his separation from his estranged wife Addison Timlin, White was spotted with Spanish singer Rosalía. The two of them were first spotted in October 2023 and several times after that in matching outfits, usually during their smoke breaks, and sometimes their outings were packed with PDA. The duo never addressed their relationship, but now with Gordon in the picture, it seemingly confirms that White and Rosalía have split.

Jeremy Allen White praises co-star Molly Gordon’s performance

During an interview with Variety in June, White praised his co-star Molly Gordon’s performance on the show, adding that she does an amazing job. The actor described the actress as disarming, funny, and charming, with further mentioning;

I think it didn’t allow Carmy to build up his regular walls. She knocked them down with ease and allowed Carmy to feel cared for, which must have just been so welcomed because I don’t know that last time Carmy would have allowed himself to be cared for.

Molly Gordon says White is such a generous, available person, noting that he told her, ‘I’m in this with you’, which immediately made the newcomer on the set feel that something good was there.

Molly Gordon mentioned that at the end of the day, she just wants Carmy to find peace and work through his incredibly dark family trauma. She feels really lucky to be on the show and share screen space with Jeremy Allen White.
