No, Harry Styles didn’t spit on Chris Pine at the Don’t Worry Darling premiere so we can all calm down-Rishma Dosani-Entertainment – Metro

Don’t worry darling, Harry Styles officially did not spit on Chris Pine at Venice Film Festival premiere.

Social media has been ablaze after that wild press conference and star-studded screening on Monday, with video footage allegedly showing the Watermelon Sugar singer ‘spitting’ on his co-star as they took their seats for a screening.

Fans on Twitter have been divided for hours, scouring every millimeter of footage of proof of saliva leaving the 28-year-old’s mouth.

However, a rep for Chris, 42, quashed all the drama, branding reports of a feud ‘ridiculous’.

‘This is a ridiculous story — a complete fabrication and the result of an odd online illusion that is clearly deceiving and allows for foolish speculation,’ they said.

‘Just to be clear, Harry Styles did not spit on Chris Pine.’

‘There is nothing but respect between these two men and any suggestion otherwise is a blatant attempt to create drama that simply does not exist,’ they added to People Magazine.

A spokesperson for Harry, who stars as Jack in the psychological thriller alongside Florence Pugh, also denied the incident to the Guardian.

So, that’s that then.

Although the musician didn’t spit on Chris, he did exchange some saliva with one of his co-stars at the ceremony, planting a kiss on Nick Kroll.

Clearly overcome with emotion after Don’t Worry Darling received a standing ovation from the crowd, a delighted Harry made a beeline for his castmate, grabbing his face and kissing him.

They also shared a hug as those around them cheered.

This marks the former One Direction star’s third appearance on the big screen, following a stint in Dunkirk and a hugely celebrated cameo in the end credits scene of the Eternals.

‘It’s fun to play in worlds that aren’t necessary your own,’ he said of the role during the press conference.

‘This world [of Don’t Worry Darling] is supposedly so perfect; it was fun to play pretend in it. It’s like driving fun cars, a lot of fun stuff as well.

‘We were lucky to have that world built so well around us, so we could play in reality instead of pretending everything was nice.’

Don’t Worry Darling is released in cinemas on September 23.
