Billie Eilish’s relationship status seems to have finally been clarified after she was seen sharing an intimate moment with a Hollywood actor in Venice.
For several months, speculation had been growing that the 23-year-old singer-songwriter was romantically involved with the 30-year-old actor. This speculation seems to have been confirmed through a public display of affection.
Photographs captured Eilish sharing a kiss with Nat Wolff, known for his role in The Consultant, on a balcony in the picturesque Italian city during the weekend.
The couple was also seen enjoying drinks and taking selfies from the balcony, indicating a shared moment of relaxation.
Nat Wolff, who gained fame composing for The Naked Brothers Band, has been touring alongside the nine-time Grammy winner since the previous year. He performs with his brother Alex in the duo Nat & Alex Wolff.
In an Instagram post from November last year, the brothers expressed their joy by stating, “being on this tour with our favorite person and artist @billieeilish has been impossible to put into words and to have her dedicated fans giving us so much love every night is even more difficult to describe.” They further remarked, “Beyond thrilled and honored.”
It is reported that Wolff and Eilish initially crossed paths at an Oscar after-party, where they found common ground over his Tourette’s syndrome. The actor has referred to the ‘Happier Than Ever’ artist as his ‘twin’ in past comments.
Beyond his musical endeavors and theater involvement, Wolff has a notable career in film and television. His credits include roles in Netflix’s Death Note, Behaving Badly, The Fault in Our Stars, Paper Towns, Mortal, and many others.
The story was first reported by Deux Moi, which noted, “The couple were locked in a passionate kiss on a balcony, a scene straight out of a romance novel. Adding to the dreamy atmosphere, they were seen sipping champagne and soaking up the Italian sun, clearly enjoying a romantic European getaway.”
This confirmation of their relationship coincides with almost a year since Eilish released the music video for her song ‘Chihiro,’ which featured Wolff as her on-screen love interest. Eilish directed the video and described the characters’ bond as having an ‘inescapable connection.’
She envisioned a “dream-like narrative” for the video, where the characters are depicted fleeing a building and embracing in a field. The concept, as explained to the Daily Mail, revolves around the “external expression of an internal push and pull, as our deepest feelings of fear, love, or desire inevitably catch up to us, no matter how hard we try to run away.”
Observant fans also noticed the pair together in New York City in March, and they appeared to depart from the iHeartRadio Music Awards together. At that point, a source indicated to a news outlet that the duo were “just friends,” saying, “They’re more like siblings than anything else and there is no romance between them. Billie is much more interested in women right now,” the insider concluded.
