Jeremy Allen White & Molly Gordon: Are We Still Pretending They’re Not Dating?
The Bear co-stars are keeping it quiet but not exactly low-key—hand-holding at premieres and family hangs are doing the talking.
New York, July 24 EST: If you’ve been even half awake to the rhythm of celebrity romance chatter, you already know this one’s been simmering for a while. Jeremy Allen White and Molly Gordon, co-stars turned maybe-more-than-co-stars on The Bear, are back in the headlines hand-in-hand and unbothered after a fresh sighting in New York that has fans deep in their feelings.
The pair showed up together at the July 22 NYC premiere of Oh, Hi!, Gordon’s directorial debut, and yes, they looked very much like a couple. Not just posing for group shots, but holding hands, sharing whispers, and, according to Elite Daily, even mingling with her parents at the after-party like it’s not a big deal. (Spoiler: it is.)
So, are they officially a thing? Still no confirmation. But let’s not kid ourselves.
The Bear’s Off-Screen Couple Energy
It all started in September 2024, when White and Gordon were caught kissing not on a red carpet, not on set, but casually, like two people who weren’t trying to hide anything. TMZ had the exclusive, People confirmed it, and social media ran with it.
Over the next few months, the pair popped up in both Los Angeles and New York, usually keeping things low-key but never exactly undercover. Think dinners in the West Village, walks in Soho, and, at one point, apartment hunting the unofficial sign of millennial coupledom.
By November, they’d vanished from public view, sparking breakup rumors. But those whispers didn’t last long. Fast-forward to July 2025, and Jeremy is showing up for Molly’s big night with the kind of presence that says, “I’m not just here for the hors d’oeuvres.”
No Labels, No Problem
To date, neither actor has said a word about what’s going on. No Instagram hints, no quotes buried in press junkets. Just vibes. And maybe that’s by design. Both are notoriously private, and in a media moment when celebs are oversharing every breakup and brunch, keeping things quiet almost feels like the new flex.
Still, it’s not lost on anyone that their most recent public outing looks a lot like a soft launch 2.0.
Art Imitating Life?
The overlap with The Bear hasn’t helped cool the speculation. On the show, Gordon plays Claire, a love interest for White’s Carmy, and their chemistry was instantly noticeable when she joined the cast in Season 2. Gordon called their dynamic “opposites attract” in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar, adding that their scenes had a lived-in feel.
Fans took that and ran with it—and now, they’ve got months of candid photos and red carpet closeness to back it up.
A Timeline Worth Knowing
If you’re keeping track:
- Sept 25, 2024: Kissing in LA. TMZ, People, the works.
- Fall 2024: Seen all over NYC dinners, errands, looking at apartments.
- Nov 2024: Last public sighting… until now.
- July 22, 2025: Reunited at the Oh, Hi! premiere. Holding hands. With family. You get it.
So while there’s still no label to pin to this maybe-romance, the pattern is hard to ignore.
Fans Aren’t Waiting for a Press Release
Whether it’s friends with feelings, slow-burn lovers, or something they just don’t want to define, White and Gordon have captured attention because they feel like the real thing. Not curated, not sponsored by a streaming service just genuinely, confusingly, charmingly real.
