Chris Evans went out on a date in London with actress Lily James…?!?

Chris Evans attends The premiere of "Knives Out" in Los Angeles

Chris Evans has been “officially” single for a while now, ever since his thing with Jenny Slate fizzled out a few years ago. They were actually on-and-off, but then finally it was off and done and dusted. I have no doubt that Evans dated widely after Slate, even though his brand seems to be “looking for a nice girl who wants to move to Boston and take care of our dogs.” I genuinely think that’s his pick-up line! Anyway, Chris was in London for some reason over the weekend and he was seen with Lily James. Lily James is best known to me for her role in Downton Abbey and playing the lead in the live-action Cinderella movie. She also dated Matt Smith for years, before they broke up late last year (when Smith maybe homewrecked Claire Foy’s marriage!). Those British actors, you never know. And now our all-American Boston Bruh is hooking up with an English rose? Shocking!

New A-list couple alert? Chris Evans and Lily James were spotted enjoying each other’s company together late in London on Saturday. The two visited the Mark’s Club in Mayfair and shared a taxi together, according to photos published by The Daily Mail.

James, 31, wore a red dress with brown heels under a navy trench coat for the evening while Evans, 39, wore an all-black suit with grey boots. While the Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again actress lives in North London, the Knives Out star had been isolating stateside before heading to London, where several film and television projects have resumed production.

Reps for both actors could not immediately be reached for comment. James was last linked to actor The Crown actor Matt Smith, 37, who she reportedly split from in December. They first started dating in 2014.

[From People]

I’ve covered some of Lily James’ interviews over the years and I’m convinced that she’s a very sweet young woman who is also deep as a puddle. No disrespect! She seems perfectly nice but just… uncomplicated, let’s say. Which I actually think is Chris’s type? I actually think Chris and Lily make perfect sense together. But who knows, maybe they’re just friends or maybe it was just a hookup or something.

    So I guess it is true that rich people can just buy their way into the UK during a global pandemic. What a couple of f*cking idiots to risk their health to go clubbing and have a booty call.

    • Darla says:

      Americans can get into the UK tho, they just have to quarantine for 14 days, which we have no evidence he didn’t do. No defense on the lack of a mask tho. Not good.

      • lola says:

        I think they don’t have to when they have to work. Like Tom Cruise doesn’t have to because of MI. Maybe he was/ is there for “work”

      • Silver Charm says:

        Based on his Emmy campaign interviews, he was stateside as of last week. He could be exempt from the 14-day quarantine if he’s working but I can’t find anything of his that is in production in the UK. The British Film Council has only approved a few films to start production and it seems like most of them are movie that were already filming when everything shut down (MI:7, Avatar, etc). He does not seem to be connected to any of these films.

        Even if he is there to film, one of the conditions is that the cast/crew be isolated from the general population. He could be isolating with Lily James, but he’s not following protocol if he’s out clubbing.

        Masks may not be mandatory on the streets of London but he doesn’t seem to have been properly quarantining and he’s coming from a COVID hotspot, the US. It’s frustrating to see people continue to flout the rules while the rest of us have been going to great lengths to protect ourselves and those around us.

        If anyone can find that he is indeed there for work, by all means let me know. I could only find his Emmy campaign and A Starting Point, which is a US-focused project. He seems to have been exempt from the rules but I can’t find why.

      • Humbugged says:

        Or they can get tested before flying in apparently

    • Sarah says:

      Yep, I have now hugged my own mother twice in the last four months because after a lot of consideration we decided to form a ‘support bubble with her when the government announced those for people living by themselves. But sure, fly across the atlantic and go on a date you inconsiderate fools.

      • Queen Meghan's Hand says:

        Right? I haven’t seen friends in months because I am quarantining with an immunocompromised person. But Chris Evans, go on and get on a PLANE for a booty call.
        I hope she gets pregnant.

    • Bavarian says:

      they have to quarantine. Keanu Reeves did the same to be able to get to Berlin to film The Matrix 4.

    • thea says:

      americans can still go to the uk, but they have to quaratine for 14 days. however,they are exempting some actors and crew from the mandatory quarantine in order to bolster up the uk film industry. tom cruise and mission impossible crew didn’t have to quarantine. so who knows if chris is there for work and got exempt or if he did quarantine for 14 days (since we don’t know when he arrived in the uk) or if he didn’t quarantine at all. but yeah the no mask thing and partying at a private club is a bad look. but it seems like brits aren’t as vigilant about mask wearing. (sidenote, hailey beiber was able to go to italy to do a commerical without having to quaratntine.)

      i constantly feel like I’m the only one taking quarantine seriously. i only go out for groceries or for my daily run. my little sister is hanging out with friends, sleeping over at her bf. friends of friends are hanging out, throwing parties, taking trips, going on vacation, etc.

      • Ashley says:

        Are you serious? She got into Italy? While the rest of the world is shunning everyone with a blue passport. I knew celebs would be exempt. Europe is such a load of crap.

        There was a story that a bunch of Americans were turned away at an Italian border and the Mayor of Capri or somewhere was angry because they turned away rich Americans. I blame Donald Trump for ruining our rep on the world stage but a part of me is also angry that we’ve basically been shunned. 16m Americans go to Europe between May and September. I just wonder if they will bring the same snide energy when they lose all of that tourism revenue.

        But it’s nice to know the Chris Evans and the Hailey Baldwin’s of the world can freely travel while the rest of us can’t see our loved ones because borders are still closed for us normal plebs.

        And no you’re not the only one taking it seriously. The world is still mask filled and not normal where I’m at (TX). It feels like normal will never happen again. I will happily wear my mask, but I just want to be able to see my loved ones again. Trump refuses to end the travel ban here and there are a lot of us who are not Chris Evans rolling up to Europe to go on a date. Most of us are separated from loved ones because of the border closures and our bigot orange dictator refusing to allow families to reunite.

    • lucy2 says:

      Seriously, this makes me mad. Even if he traveled for work, he should have arranged time to quarantine the 14 days.
      They should both be wearing masks.
      They should both be social distancing.
      They should NOT be going to an indoor bar.
      How stupid and reckless, and what poor examples to set.

      • Humbugged says:

        lucy2

        Bars in England opened at the weekend for indoor customers

      • Silver Charm says:

        @humbugged If Evans is there for work he is supposed to be isolating from the general public (different from the 14-day quarantine). That’s one of the requirements to get filming approval from the UK. He’s out clubbing and putting the health of the cast and crew at risk and the whole production on the line.

        If he’s not there for work he seems to have ignored the 14-quarantine as he was doing Emmy campaign interviews stateside as recently as last week.

      • Humbugged says:

        Silver Charm

        You can also get in in you get tested and pass 72 hours before flying in

        And there is no rules on wearing masks outside of public transport
        And as far as I can see the two of them being in a private bar where you are separated ,splitting a taxi and entering a place through different entrances does seem to be social distancing .

        Lily being hugged up with Dom Cooper ,Gemma and Billie last week as the were splitting a bottle of wine in the park probably not so much

      • Silver Charm says:

        Being at a club is the opposite of social distancing and isolating.

      • Laura says:

        Ditto. I love him and am a massive fan of how smart, charming and 10000% fratty he is buttttt this reeks of bad judgement and irresponsibility. He should be wearing a mask. He has been tweeting about it and I get the sense he is not all about performative action.

        On the Lily James note, I read this as Lily Collins when the news first broke. Didn’t they have a thing for like 2 minutes? He has the weirdest taste in women. I don’t get the Jenny Slate hype at all. She seemed insanely obsessed with him in the BEST celebrity profile via Vulture. And then when she was asked about oversharing weeks later, she was super defensive. Sweetie, you said you wanted to talk about it!! Like, I’m pretty sure she used that exact line. Anyway, he has dated super B/C-list actresses for being a bonafide A-lister with more money than what he knows what to do with. Minka Kelly? Wut. My secret hope was that HE would date Ana from Knives Out (pre-Batfleck). I also, at a point, was shipping him and Rachel McAdams even though they both worked in the Marvel universe but I don’t think ever met?

        If this is for work, I wonder if Lily was cast in Little Shop of Horrors? I saw on Twitter that she was replacing Scarlett? Lol.

      • lucy2 says:

        I’m aware they opened this past weekend, but indoor bars are listed as the #1 most dangerous place to go.

    • Alyse says:

      They have reopened UK borders to international talent (cast & crew) required for film/tv projects to get the industry going again.
      I don’t know if he’s quarantined or not, but being allowed in the country for film work is def a thing.

  2. lola says:

    Looks like the pandemic is over! Yay! We can finally cross the pond again to bone someone, leave clubs without masks, enter hotels without masks on, and take a not listed plus one to our hotel rooms! Thanks Cap!

    And also what’s up with leaving a club together, sharing a cab, but then not going into the hotel together?! LOL

    Wasn’t Lily the one who was last week papped not social distancing in a park? And sitting on someone’s lap in a driving car? And wasn’t the latest news on her that she was quarantining with her ex?!

    And also a plus timing with the launch of Chris’s political side that no one cares about! I’m sure the others involved in that project love that additional PR…

    • Humbugged says:

      Her and Matt own a house that they shared and were still sharing the space . I don’t think Matt would want to be holed up in Lancashire with Claire and her mother

    • Silver Charm says:

      Those park pics were really bad. It’s all such a bad example especially for CE who is fashioning himself as some sort of moral political compass or whatever that website is supposed to be doing.

    • Terry says:

      Disagree on The Starting Point. I think it’s pretty cool and as someone who works on the Hill, it’s gotten a good amount of buzz and press for not even having a website. When I saw it, it was a literal splash page. I’ll commend anyone for taking the time to invest their resources into educating the general public on civic engagement and empowerment. It’s incredibly hard and requires money, time and resources – all of which Chris has and I’m glad he’s using it for good.

      • Silver Charm says:

        I’m aware of buzz on the Hill but the website isn’t for the people on the Hill. All this makes him look deeply out of touch with the audience he’s trying to reach. This is a bad look and example as they get into the launch.

    • kc says:

      The website is literally for anyone who is eligible to vote in the US. Having elected officials featured in the videos/social/whatever it ends up as is crucial and I think his/her point was saying that people who work for elected officials and/or the elected officials themselves were impressed with the concept. Word of mouth both offline and online is crucial for GOTV efforts so I’m not sure what your “it isn’t for people on the Hill” comment is suppose to mean.

  3. Abby says:

    Aww I like the thought of these two beautiful people together. They both seem nice and easygoing. And the kind to like dogs.

  4. Darla says:

    Ugh, I looked at the pictures, he isn’t wearing a mask, and so much worse, he isn’t wearing one when a hotel worker, who is masked, is forced to open the door for him. And just last week I said Evans can’t be unseated as the best Chris, he can only unseat himself. I was really surprised, I would have thought he would treat people better than he treats this hotel employee. SMH

    • Humbugged says:

      There is no rules on wearing masks . The hairdressers opened at the weekend and people serving are wearing them .

      • lucy2 says:

        Rules are one thing, but common sense and decency to those around you are another. Wear a mask.

      • Darla says:

        Zip it. Don’t act like we don’t all know that the UK is in the top 3 of the WORST countries on Covid. You’re saved because of Trump, but Boris is a hot mess. I don’t give one crap what those idiots made the “law”. Science tells us mask it. Period. And this guy is an American. He knows full well how important it is, and also how political it is thanks to Trump. Which is causing thousands of death. If you’re his PR get a better line. If you’re a fan, move on.

  5. SJR says:

    They say the rich are different from us.
    True enough, they certainly do not seem to follow rules as the majority of informed folks do.
    Must be nice. While we mere mortals follow stay.at.home. and fear for our loved ones.

    Tools!
    Masks are so easy, why are people not wearing them?
    I am tired of all of 2020.

  6. petite hirondelle says:

    I don’t know her but strangely she seems beautiful and boring in the same time, i can forget her quick. It is not a perfect timing for the PR with pandemic, travel, politic and so. He can travel from the US without 14 days quarantine?

    • Ainsley7 says:

      We don’t know that he didn’t quarantine. We have no idea when he traveled to London.

      • lola says:

        Maybe I’m a pessimistic a hole, but I feel like someone who doesn’t wear a mask to protect others doesn’t seem like he wants to quarantine for 14 days.

    • Esmom says:

      I know her from Downton Abbey and while she’s lovely I was always distracted by her mouth, which is perfectly shaped like a Wallace and Grommit character’s.

      I am dismayed by their behavior, pandemic-wise. I also cannot for the life of me imagine wearing a dress and heels/suit at the moment, either.

      • petite hirondelle says:

        Maybe they are there for work (i am trying to find a good excuse but…)

      • Case says:

        This is so funny. I like Lily and think she’s very pretty, but her mouth really distracts me!

    • SKF says:

      She’s actually a good actress. She was one of the only good things about Mamma Mia! 2. Great energy.

      This looks irresponsible as all hell but; I guess if it was a private club there may have only been a few people there. I still wouldn’t do it! And case numbers in Australia are minuscule compared to the US or UK. There are no rules about wearing masks in public in London; but if you’re out and about and catching cabs etc, it would be the wise and respectful move.

      If you check the article on the Fail, it seems that they left the private after hours club and went to the hotel at about dawn. So at least there really wouldn’t have been anyone much out. That may be why they didn’t bother. He got out at the front and she pretended to carry on but looped around to a back entrance. He was spotted speaking to staff inside and she was texting and then after a while staff let her in. Seems like they were trying to hide it!

      I’ve seen people saying it was a set up but I doubt it with all the shenanigans they tried to play. The photos are super lo-fi too which means they were taken on a super long lens. They take thousands of frames and pick the ones where subjects seem to be looking at them.

      That’s why People said she wore brown shoes too when she’s actually wearing red and navy plaid Burberry heels – the Fail identified them. They look brown because the pics are Lo-Fi.

      So… a hook-up, a fling-for-a-while or a burgeoning relationship? They seem cute, let’s see. Hopefully their dumbass behaviour doesn’t get them or anyone else sick.

  7. minx says:

    I didn’t know she and Matt Smith broke up.

    • lola says:

      I think they even quarantined together. Because I remember reading that and seeing pics of them and I was like huh, I thought he was with Claire Foy.

      • SKF says:

        I read a piece earlier today that said that she and Matt broke up because they were both working so much that they hardly saw each other. Which is… totally believable. Both of their careers have blown up. Anyhoo, they kept the place they had together and shared it because neither of them was ever around much anyway and rarely at the same time. Then the pandemic hit and they had to lock down together. Then… speculation. Perhaps they rekindled it for a bit and then it flamed out (it’s a lot spending all day, every day with someone). Or maybe they just bore it out as friends and ex-partners until they sorted a different living situation out. Who knows? Clearly it’s over now though.

    • phaedra7 says:

      What happened to him and actress Jenny Slade? I thought that they were still together.

      • petite hirondelle says:

        she has moved on and she is already happily married to another one (check her instagram)

      • Courtney B says:

        They broke up for good two years ago. He hasn’t even been papped or rumored (by name) with anyone so it may have slipped under the radar.

  8. Rae says:

    Has he been in quarantine for two weeks? Genuinely intrigued to know when he came.

    As for him and Lilly: wish them well, but please…masks people, masks!

  9. Oc says:

    For me this another pap walk of two irresponsible and selfish celebrities in the middle of a pandemic. I don’t care how cute they look together. This is tone deaf and it doesn’t matter if UK is reopening. Because they can doesn’t mean they should do what they did. For someone who pose as “woke”, Evans looks pretty stupid doing this. If he was there for work he should have stick with working. And she was pictured many times without a mask during the pandemic, so no surprise. But I think that wearing masks for a pap walk would not look good and it would make difficult to recognize them?

    • lola says:

      Don’t forget that he has the launch of his side (that he made because Wikipedia is too long) next week and he (and others) put a lot of money and time in it. Dude doesn’t seem as smart as he pretends to be,

    • Darla says:

      He’s not on a pap walk, (she might be, I don’t know) he’s trying to hide that he’s with her from the paps. He just isn’t wearing a mask, it’s not an Ana thing. It doesn’t make him look fame-ho-ey, it makes him look very dumb. I mean, really stupid. I thought he was smarter than this. He blew that image, which I think was a big part of his appeal, so, oops. Nothing more boring than a dumb piece of ass.

      • bluerun1 says:

        This this this! I’m baffled. As a celebrity who gets recognized, wouldn’t it make sense to wear a mask? Like, it’s now socially acceptable (even encouraged!) to hide half of your face! I realize you can still be recognized, but at least you’re recognized doing something responsible.

    • Jack says:

      They have pictures of them leaving the club and pictures of them arriving at the hotel. Looks like PR setup to me. They are pushing for an Emmy nom for him for Defending Jacob. If he gets a nom, we’ll see more of this. If not, he’ll disappear again. He knows how to play the game

      • lola says:

        To me it looks like a hook up that caught by the paps. Her relationship with Matt Smith sounds messy af and is probably not done for good.

        If this is truly a PR thing than he needs to fire his people asap. This is truly the dumbest move during a pandemic. But then again flying to Europe for a bone fest during a pandemic is also dumb af. He’s gonna look even dumber when she gets papped with her ex again.

  10. Wilma says:

    ‘Partying at a private members club’: puke. I have always been able to make lots of excuses for Chris, who seems nice, but a bit dumb, but there is no excuse for anything he’s doing here in a time of a global pandemic other than that he’s a rich dude who feels himself to be above it all.

  11. Kat says:

    Definitely doesn’t seem as smart as he pretends to be. I don’t think he respects women as much as he likes people to think.

    I guess celebs are immune to covid…!

    Also, if this is a PR move.. what benefit would it be to him? He’s launching that ASP website soon, right? This does not look good.

    • Evie says:

      in her book, jenny slate called him mysoginist, so…. there is a chapter about him, he was toxic with her, so no surprise.

      • petite hirondelle says:

        She says that clearly about him in the book?

      • Evie says:

        In her book, she talked about an ex who says it’s time to man to listening. Chris did an interview saying it’s time to man to listen. The chapter is I died: listening. She talks about this guy who is saying it’s time to man to listen, but he talks talks talks is she who is listening. She said to him he still don’t understend, he gets furious, and says to her that she never listen him. It was enough to her. Lol it’s a good chapter

  12. Talita says:

    I think this is pure PR. She’s clearly looking at the camera. And he’s an idiot for flying during a pandemic and not wearing a mask. I’ve always found him kinda phony.

  13. B says:

    His stans are so butthurt about this 😂

  14. Léna says:

    As someone who saw two friends since the lockdown ended beginning of may in France, I’m not even shocked that most people are going out like usual. A lot of people in France have been partying like never before, going out in bars, celebrating the Festival of Music in June with hundreds of people… Sadly, I did not expect celebrities to be better

    • Darla says:

      I saw a news story from France where a bus driver was beaten to death because he asked passengers to wear a mask? WOW! I seriously couldn’t believe it wasn’t Florida. I had to check three times, I was like, they must mean Florida. Very disheartening to know this pig ignorance is everywhere.

      • petite hirondelle says:

        We have our part of dumb people in Europe too, don’t worry. have you seen the pics of pubs reopening in London? so… let s hope it doesn’t come back worse than the first weeks of march

      • Darla says:

        petite, I am very worried that’s what is going to happen, but I pray not.

      • Léna says:

        Yes, the people who assaulted him didn’t have tickets and didn’t have masks… poor man
        What a world we live in

      • petite hirondelle says:

        My mothe works in hospital and they are taking some time off now because they are sure that in september or october, it will be a nightmare with the come back of winter and flu… all doctors and nurses are saying this… so

      • Traveler says:

        Dear God what is happening to humanity!?
        It’s pigs that are noble creatures………….I’m losing all faith in humans.

    • petite hirondelle says:

      Same in Belgium… As it never happens

      • Léna says:

        Maybe it’s because I’m more of an introvert and I like my time alone… But, going to bars and partying with your friends is not that essential? I’ve been calling, skyping, zooming with my friends and it’s alright, it’s almost the same! I just don’t understand this “need” some people have to go to bars and restaurants

      • petite hirondelle says:

        In bars it is a no but i have been once in a restaurant that realy respect distance and it was outside in a garden. In bars i can’t…. I have seen people suffering around me so it is a no, it is a real thing but nobody wears masks anymore here when i go to the supermarket

      • Darla says:

        Lena, I miss restaurants very badly. At least once, usually twice a week, I would meet friends at restaurant bars, have a few drinks, and then be seated for dinner. Or I’d go out with whatever man I was seeing, and have long dinners. Even more than that, I miss live music so much! I do love it. But I have not been since NY shut down, even tho we are reopening now, I will not again this year. And very likely not next year either. I miss it, but as far as “sacrifices” go, it’s not a big one. So there’s no excuse. There just isn’t.

    • thea says:

      it’s the same in the uk. have you seen pics of people at the bars? it’s like corona never happened. and the mask culture in the uk is practically non-existent.

      my cousin lives in paris and she’s constantly posting pictures…and there’s never a mask in sight.

      sigh.

      i have friends and friends of friends here in california that are taking trips or going to/throwing parties. meanwhile, i been out drinking since feburary. haven’t dined out since march. haven’t seen friends in forever. haven’t taken a trip since january. haven’t worked out at a studio since march. and yeah it sucks, but there is a pandemic going on. i really don’t get the bar thing…i mean you can drink at home.

    • lucy2 says:

      Jesus. This thing is never going to get under control, and people are going to suffer and die needlessly, all because some people couldn’t bear to be inconvenienced for a bit or wear a mask.

  15. Nathalie says:

    I do think that the opening of clubs and generally large social gatherings are the most dangerous action to increase the distribution of the Coronavirus, so that is inexcusable.

    However, masks going into a hotel, masks outdoors in public when you’re not likely to stay close to someone (a walk on the pavement) isn’t mandatory and I find it strange that they are policed for that.

    The UK has now finally brought the cases down (except for few hotspots) and London looks ok for the moment. Again, partying is not acceptable, but they won’t infect anybody by walking on the streets at night. The evidence that masks actually help fight the pandemic when worn outdoors is weak, especially with people mishandling them constantly and using different types of fabric or protection gear. I agree to mandatory masks on public transport, maybe shops.

    Europe is currently trying to find the new normal, because we’ll have to live with it for years. It’s not comparable to the US or India or South America. Europe is not as crowded, has smaller countries and counties to keep in control and for most cases a fairly decend government.

    • lola says:

      Here in Germany you have to wear a mask when you’re inside a store, public building, hotel or cafe. You can only take off your mask once your at thetable. You also have to wear one in public transportation including cabs.

      The hotel employee wore a mask to protect the guests. Guests like chris should wear one too to protect the employees even if it’s mandatory. Alone out of respect.

      • Nathalie says:

        Ehm… I just checked few German Bundesländer and they did not all declare wearing masks mandatory for hotels. (Obviously, I checked for today’s date.) You also proved my argument: In Germany, mandatory masks and other rules are dependent on the Bundesland, making it easier to introduce necessary measures to contain hot spots. It also means measures differ within Germany – as they do in Switzerland and Austria, Spain and the UK.

        This also doesn’t make my point invalid, because they might have been wearing a mask INSIDE (probably not), but are being policed for not wearing one OUTSIDE.

        Again, we don’t know what is going on. Since he’s already been living there, they more than likely were able to go to his room without coming in close and long contact with other people. The contact with the staff unlocking the door is very unlikely to spread the disease one way or another. And since the staff is unlocking the door, the bar also probably won’t be open. So policing them for not wearing a mask outdoors and short, distanced interaction is unnecessary.

        I absolutely agree that clubs and pubs should have not opened with lack of control and too many cases still going. Not there, not anywhere. However, there will be parties. If you can’t do them legally and safely, they’ll be done illegally, hidden (which is especially dangerous) and unsafe. North Koreans have illegal parties with far worse consequences because dancing and socialising are part of being a human – and that comes from me who’s been to a club maybe once or twice.

        Look, I’ve been wearing a mask weeks before it got mandatory here. My sister is an epidemiologist, I work with MDs, researchers and people involved with the government to fight COVID-19. I am taking it very seriously, despite looking at the larger picture, and what’s going on in South America, the US, South Asia is worrying.

      Indoor bars are rated as the riskiest place/activity.

    This is not a good look. I mean, visiting a club? Like, if you were going on a date or just hanging out, why not do something at his hotel or her place? It just seems very careless and dismissive of the social practices we are all suppose to be following.

    I like Chris Evans although he seems a bit bro-y and I also really like Lily James who is very pretty and has a lot of charm on-screen. Neither of them seem that deep or particularly smart so this makes a ton of sense.

    I do wonder if her relationship with Matt Smith is truly over though. There were all those rumours that he stepped out on her with Claire Foy. If that is true, I hope she is rebounding with America’s ass.

  17. Elaine Venice says:

    She looks like a mean girl.

  18. Caitlin Bruce says:

    If they were dating why not just go back to her place? Especially during a global pandemic, instead of putting hotel employees at risk when you can’t even be bothered to put on a damn mask.

  19. Emma says:

    This is weird mainly only because Chris is in London. I didn’t think he had any roles lined up. He also launches his website this week, which seems like a disaster. This is the one where he interviews all politicians to discuss how there are two sides to an issue. He interviewed dan Crenshaw and ted Cruz, which seem like terrible ideas lol. I’m curious to see how this goes. But as for lily and Chris, odd pairing. They have been following each other on insta tho? This reminds me of the lily collins and Chris pairing a few years ago

  20. Andrew’s Nemesis says:

    That woman has far too many teeth and her inclusion on the Downton cast, with her endless breathless declarative form of ‘acting’, ruined it. In my opinion.
    That’s all I’ve got.

    • Mara says:

      She can definitely afford dental work so I guess she has the number of teeth that she wants?

  21. Emma says:

    Oh I forgot to add…chris was quarantining in Boston but went to la in late June to help his brother move. So I guess he did travel during that time

    • Evie says:

      Chris was in Boston at least June 29th because he did a interview in his Boston house.

  22. It’sjustblanche says:

    All I have is that of course he’s dating her: she was Cinderella in a Disney movie and he’s obsessed with Disney. My friend works there and they always look up his reservations to find out when he’s coming. He usually takes his mom and brother.

    I’m actually shocked that he’s not going to the opening of Walt Disney World next week considering that wearing a mask would give him a lot of anonymity.

  23. MellyMel says:

    I mean they’re both good looking, so that’s nice for them…but are we not in a global pandemic???

  24. Jaxonmeh says:

    You know, I was content with the fantasy and then I had to wake up to this. Thanks Chris.

    Lol. I wonder if she was texting the paps since he went out of his way to make her go in the back door. Woulda looked less bad if he just escorted her in. I can imagine Lily saying “Oh. You want me to go in the back door. Cool. No problem at all.” Girl gets both the publicity to stick it to Matt Smith and a night of fun With Chris Evans. Well played.

    And that’s without all the mask issues I have with these photos. Not cool at all, but at least it ain’t BenAna News again. Seriously that’s what someone coined it.

    • Mara says:

      Interesting theory, although there are also probably a lot of out of work paparrazi around. Do you think its also possible that He called the paps while she was the shy one sneaking out the back door?

  25. Emily says:

    They would make a cute couple but the pics of her doing drugs (from the daily mail) in a park with her friends a few weeks ago are just gross. Also celeb gossip insta account called @deuxmoi did some zooming in to find that Chris was visibly holding a condom while going into the hotel lol

    • Yati says:

      He was pretty wild pre marvel days, he was not an a-lister so no one was looking but it was sure entertaining. The marvel machine really helped with his image along with his PR team but the facade is falling.
      At least he’s carrying condoms now and not prescription medicine, oh those were the days!!

    • Andrea says:

      Wow, I can’t believe how out in the open she was doing drugs (just went and looked at the pics).

      • Humbugged says:

        They were drinking and as far as I could see Billie was smoking a fag . Her and Billie became friends on Secret Diary of a Call Girl and the other 2 people there Dom Cooper and Gemma Chan

  26. Emma says:

    deauxmoi also reposted the pics of her doing drugs but I mean there are also reports that Chris does too

    • Kat says:

      Yeah I keep seeing rumours about Chris being a massive cokehead

      • Mara says:

        I’ve never heard of that but then I suppose there is a lot of PR/Marvel interest in keeping that out of the gossip blogs. Where did you hear the rumours?

  27. Case says:

    Unfortunately this IS a case of “celebrities, they’re just like us!” As in, these two are just like all of the nitwits not socially distancing and acting like everything is fine and dandy. How inconsiderate to not wear a mask when entering the hotel — what the heck?

    The thing with going clubbing — yes, it’s idiotic to go to a club during a pandemic. There’s no excuse. But just like everything else that is reopening, I don’t blame some people for trying to go to businesses that are open. I blame the businesses for opening, and the government for encouraging it instead of giving them the aid they require to stay closed until it is genuinely safe.

    Side note: I thought Lily James and Matt Smith were cute together, so that’s a bummer.

  28. Dizzy says:

    People can still travel if it’s work related. Sometimes they have to quarantine sometimes they don’t. … depends on local regulations. Think of flight attendants, pilots, sailors, truck drivers and railway employees. All working during the pandemic. (Lol, can you tell I work in transportation).
    Like some people have already said, he’s probably working and it’s helping the British film industry.

  29. Allergy says:

    Sorry but I find Chris Evans really unattractive.

  30. Boo says:

    I love this new couple and it’s nice to see some gossip on here about people I’ve actually heard of before.

  31. Caitlin Bruce says:

    deuxmoi on ig had an anon say they Have known lily since they were 6 and that her and Chris have been dating since before the lockdown 🤯

    • lola says:

      Well, I mean anyone can claim that. And that would make her quaranting with her ex even weirder

      • Humbugged says:

        They still shared a house that they did not use much so they used it t isolate

  32. Mabs A'Mabbin says:

    Aw, Captain America and Cinderella. Charming.

  33. Eugh says:

    Irresponsibility aside, I hope this is a Michelle Dockery hookup

    • Courtney B says:

      She’s finally dating someone. I always really liked her and her fiancé’s death was so tragic. When DJ came out, I’d looked it up and there was an article about her new guy. Don’t know how serious it is though.

      • Original Penguin says:

        I think Michelle Dockery is going out with Phoebe Waller Bridges brother . He seems low key.

  34. Amelie says:

    I’m guessing he’s in London due to work? I don’t think Chris would be so irresponsible as to travel all the way to London to have a fling with Lily James. I went onto his Wikipedia page to try to figure out if he’s there for a filming project but I couldn’t find anything and none of the articles I found have explained why he’s in London. My guess is he and Lily are probably in some movie together, I think that’s how Chris met Jenny Slate right? They did Gifted together. Otherwise I can’t see how these two would ever cross paths given that Chris is such a Boston/Massachusetts bro. I don’t hate them together though I don’t think it’s something that would last for long. Lily is having fun after dating Matt Smith. I didn’t even realize those two were together until after they’d broken up. But yeah, the no wearing mask thing is annoying. Unfortunately in the UK, masks aren’t required unless on public transportation I think? We all saw Kate and William at some event recently INDOORS and they weren’t wearing masks either.

    Keanu is in Berlin for Matrix 4, he was spotted with his girlfriend all dressed up going into some restaurant or something. Also Timothee Chalamet was somehow in Mexico on vacation for some reason. Not really sure I understand celebrities and their weird logic of traveling during a pandemic. I can understand if it’s for work and if the crew and actors are quarantining/isolating and taking precautions. But if they are out and about in the late morning hours having a fling with their co-star, it’s not a good look.

    • Humbugged says:

      She has worked and is friends with both Dom Cooper (who is dating Gemma Chan) and Hayley Atwell so I would take that as a clue to how they met .

      Her and Matt were together for 5 years

  35. Sharbean says:

    There is no obligation to wear masks indoors in the UK unless taking public transport.

    Pubs and restaurants have been allowed open since July 4th and this includes indoors drinking and dining. It is not fair to use the regulations in one country as the basis of judging those in others.

    That being said if travelling abroad, he should have (may have?) quarantined for 14 days.

    • Mara says:

      Movie stars get a special exception from quarantining after arriving in the UK. What the reasoning behind this is beyond me.

  36. Courtney B says:

    I think he may have been there more than a few days already. The recent interviews regarding Defending Jacob were done via zoom and the phone and some were also done weeks ago apparently. I follow him on twitter and his house is pretty distinctive (old farmhouse) and some interviews were definitely not there.

    • lola says:

      He was also in LA, helping his brother move and was spotted at a BLM march. He did a few interviews from there.

  37. The Recluse says:

    Oh, well…no mask. Covid-19 is still out there. Evans and his new girlfriend had better be more careful, if it isn’t too late already. His Mom is in her 60s now. That puts her in a high risk category. And now they’re finding organ damage in younger people even if they didn’t get chronically ill with the virus. Evans ain’t no spring chicken either. Look at that poor Broadway actor who suffered terribly and died of it.
    Keep wearing those masks, people.
