Harry Styles and Olivia Wilde spotted ‘looking completely smitten on alfresco London pub date’
Harry Styles and rumoured love interest Olivia Wilde were reportedly spotted enjoying a ‘cosy’ pub date in West London.
Enjoying the easing of lockdown restrictions in the UK, the pair were seen enjoying dinner and drinks alfresco on Wednesday night, looking ‘completely smitten’ according to an onlooker.
They told The Mirror: ‘They looked very cosy on an intimate table for two away from other diners. They were grinning like Cheshire cats at each other all night.’
The pair apparently didn’t shy away from being affectionate, with the director ‘gently nudging’ against him during the evening.
‘They looked completely smitten’ the eyewitness added.
‘They were very polite and waved to the team before heading out the door.’
The sighting comes two months after rumours Harry and Olivia would be jetting from America to the UK after filming wrapped on her new film Don’t Worry Darling, which stars the Golden singer.
Olivia is directing and starring in the upcoming movie, while Harry plays the film’s male lead Jack, alongside Florence Pugh, who stars as Alice.
The Booksmart director praised the former One Direction star for allowing Florence to ‘hold the spotlight’.
She wrote on Instagram: ‘Little known fact: most male actors don’t want to play supporting roles in female-led films.
‘The industry has raised them to believe it lessens their power (i.e financial value) to accept these roles, which is one of the reasons it’s so hard to get financing for movies focusing on female stories.’
Olivia continued: ‘No joke, it is harrrrrd to find actors who recognize why it might be worth it to allow for a woman to hold the spotlight.
‘Enter: @harrystyles, our “Jack” Not only did he relish the opportunity to allow for the brilliant @florencepugh to hold center stage as our ‘Alice’, but he infused every scene with a nuanced sense of humanity.’
‘He didn’t have to join our circus, but he jumped on board with humility and grace, and blew us away every day with his talent, warmth, and ability to drive backwards. 👊 #dontworrydarling,’ she concluded.
Neither Olivia or Harry have commented on the dating rumours.
