It is a universal truth that when two single celebrities get dinner — regardless of how many other people might be joining them — that dating rumours will follow.
Such is the lot of Dakota Johnson and Role Model (aka Tucker Pillsbury), who were spotted by TMZ enjoying dinner together with friends.
The Madame Web star, 36, was photographed sharing a relaxed, intimate dinner with the 28-year-old pop artist and a few friends in Los Angeles, with sources telling TMZ that Dakota appeared “cuddled up” and close with Tucker throughout the evening.
Dakota is newly single after her split from Coldplay frontman Chris Martin earlier in 2025 following an eight-year relationship, while Role Model ended a three-year romance with influencer Emma Chamberlain in 2023.
The cosy nature of the dinner, photos show the pair lingering in conversation and comfortable proximity, has naturally fuelled dating speculation.
Some fans and gossip feeds have even suggested a budding connection, though neither Dakota nor Tucker has publicly confirmed any romantic relationship beyond the social outing.
In the weeks prior, sources told PEOPLE that Johnson had been “slowly dating again” and was feeling lighter and more open to new connections following her breakup with Chris.
