Los Angeles/IBNS: Hollywood star Dakota Johnson’s relationship with American musician Role Model appears to have moved beyond speculation after the two were seen sharing a PDA moment.

What happened?

In a viral video, the duo were spotted embracing each other and sharing a kiss in a parking lot, leaving little doubt about their relationship status.

According to a report by TMZ, the couple were seen at a Los Feliz parking lot sharing intimate moments. Role Model—whose real name is Tucker Pillsbury—was seen holding Johnson close and kissing her before the two parted with smiles.

They were also seen holding hands while heading to a nearby eatery with friends.

When did the romance begin?

Rumours of their relationship first surfaced in November last year when Johnson was spotted dining with Role Model and friends at a restaurant.

In a viral photo, Johnson was seen sipping a drink while her partner listened to others across the table. 

Reports suggest the two began dating after Johnson ended her eight-year relationship with Coldplay lead singer Chris Martin.

Dakota Johnson’s current projects

On the work front, Johnson appeared in two films last year—Splitsville and Materialists.

She will next be seen in Verity, where she also serves as an executive producer. The actor is also set to make her directorial debut with A Tree Is Blue, an unconventional drama centred on the life of an autistic woman.
