Molly Gordon and Jeremy Allen White Are Kissing

Life comes at you fast, and this week it hit me squarely in the jaw when it presented me with photos of Jeremy Allen White kissing his Bear co-star Molly Gordon. White and Gordon were seen in L.A. on Wednesday bidding each other adieu with what TMZ described as a “big chef’s kiss” and an intimate hug, before White held Gordon’s car door open for her and they parted ways. Throughout the entire interaction, White was cradling not one but two packs of American Spirits in his hand — perhaps an indicator of his mental state?

Gordon plays White’s love interest on The Bear, but per TMZ, there were no cameras around, so it appears this moment was, shall we say, unscripted. Until now, White was believed to be dating Rosalía, after they were seen on several romantic flower-shopping trips and cigarette breaks. It appears those two are no more — White did not show up to Rosalía’s birthday party in Paris Wednesday night (I guess even her platter of loose cigs couldn’t tempt him). Instead, he was with Gordon and her chore coat, “rehearsing” (wink, wink). What will Ayo think of all this?

Anyway, if you’re heading to L.A. anytime soon, be careful — this man and his Calvins are really making their way around town.
