A source told TMZ that Dakota and Tucker were “cuddled up and grew very close” as the evening went on, which added fuel to speculation about a possible romance. Neither Dakota nor Tucker has publicly confirmed anything about their relationship, but fans have already noticed their chemistry.

The sightings come months after Dakota ended her long-term relationship with Coldplay frontman Chris Martin.

The couple had been together since 2017, were engaged at one point, and split earlier this year. Dakota reportedly began dating again in November, signaling a fresh start. Tucker, meanwhile, has been single since his breakup with influencer Emma Chamberlain in 2023, a split that inspired his album Kansas Anymore.

Professionally, Dakota has kept busy. In 2025, she appeared in Materialists and Splitsville, and she is now preparing for a major role in the film adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s novel Verity, starring alongside Josh Hartnett and Anne Hathaway. While rumors about her personal life swirl, Dakota continues to focus on her career and upcoming projects.
