Lupita has always kept her dating life private. The duo denied dating rumours after they sparked in 2019, after they staged a make out scene in a photo booth at the InStyle & Warner Bros. Golden Globes afterparty in 2019. Lupita explained to Entertainment Tonight at the time. “I think it’s such a rare thing to find people you have good chemistry with and too for us to find each other as actors and get to work together, it makes the work richer that we truly enjoy each other’s company on and off screen.”
