When you find out two of your favorite celebs might have made out, where do you go? Twitter, obvi. And these tweets about KJ Apa and Britt Robertson reportedly kissing at a Comic-Con party have fans really pulling out all the stops, because, hello! This is major.
For those of you who might have missed the memo, Us Weekly reported that the Riverdale actor and the Tomorrowland actress got hot and steamy at the Entertainment Weekly Comic-Con party in San Diego on Saturday, July 21. What, exactly, constitutes as getting "hot and steamy," you ask? Allow me to explain. According to Us Weekly, Robertson, 29, and Apa, 22, were reportedly spotted "hugging," holding hands, and even "leaning in and kissing each other." As if that wasn't adorable enough, the two were also reportedly spotted hanging with Apa's Riverdale co-stars, Camila Mendes, Lili Reinhart, Madelaine Petsch, and Cole Sprouse. Elite Daily reached out to reps for both Robertson and Apa, but did not hear back in time for publication.
The match isn't totally random, if that's what you were thinking. The two actually met back in 2017 when they were filming A Dog's Purpose. Then, in May 2019, they announced they'd be working together again, this time in a movie called I Still Believe with Shania Twain. Us Weekly also notes that the two have reportedly "been active in liking each other’s Instagram photos since April."
Fans are jazzed about the possibility that they might be an item, but also, a little confused. This is the first time Apa and Robertson spark dating rumors, and there hasn't been any buzz about a breakup between Robertson and actor Graham Rogers, who fans believed Robertson was dating up until, basically, now. There was no formal breakup announcement from either party. Needless to say, Twitter has had a mixed reaction. See for yourself, below.
Clearly, folks are confused. According to Us Weekly, Rogers and Robertson were actively posting about each other on Instagram, until Rogers reportedly deleted all the photos of Robertson off his profile. Robertson, on the other hand, did not delete her pictures with Rogers, but hasn't posted anything with him since December 2018. So, yeah, I'm going to say it's safe to assume they might have headed to Splitsville.
As for that "Dylan" guy one fan was referring to, Us Weekly reports it was probably Teen Wolf star Dylan O'Brien, who Robertson dated from 2012 until late 2018.
Apa, on the other hand, hasn't had a ton going on in his love life as far as we know. According to his co-star Mark Consuelos, the actor prefers to keep things low-key. “His parents did a really good job raising him,” Consuelos told GQ in March 2019. “He’s doing a great job, he does great work. He focuses on what’s important. I’m speaking for him, but he’s really not interested, I think, in all the trappings of celebrity. He’d probably be really, really happy just playing his guitar, to be honest with you.”
But don't be fooled. Apa himself has been pretty upfront about his success with the ladies in the United States. (ICYMI Apa is from New Zealand.) “Guys in the States are a lot more confident than guys in New Zealand. There, if you go out with your mates, you all hang with one another because you’re too scared to talk to the girls," Apa told Cosmopolitan in May 2019. "Being in the U.S. has made me way more confident. Also, having a New Zealand accent increases your chances by like 50 percent.”
So, yeah, sounds like Apa is doing quite well for himself. A possible relationship with his co-star doesn't seem like an impossibility if you ask me, but until we know for sure, we can only hope!
