Austin Butler and Emily Ratajkowski Spotted on Cozy Dinner Date

Actors Austin Butler and Emily Ratajkowski were seen sharing an intimate dinner in the West Village, fueling romance speculation. The pair was photographed getting close at the Waverly Inn last Friday evening, with witnesses describing them as “very giggly and cute.” According to reports, Ratajkowski enjoyed a martini, while Butler sipped an Old Fashioned.

Sources say the starlets talked for two hours, with Ratajkowski leaning into Butler multiple times and him resting his arm on her shoulder. Despite minimal public displays of affection, their close interaction hints at a budding connection. Representatives for both actors have yet to comment.
