AUSTIN BUTLER ‘CAUGHT’ DATING

Although he has been single for a minute, Austin Butler is allegedly back on the dating scene!

As revealed within Deuxmoi’s January 5th newsletter, the brooding actor may be quietly seeing a certain someone. Further echoed on Deux/U’s January 8th podcast episode, Butler was seen on two Los Angeles-based outings with a dark-haired stunner over the weekend.

Keeping Deuxmoi ever on our toes, a tipster saw “Butler at RVR in Venice with [a] random girl on Friday night.” Located on Abbot Kinney Boulevard, the Japanese hotspot would definitely qualify as date-night territory, not just two friends hanging out. Confirming our suspicions, another source spotted Butler and his dinner companion there as well, describing him as “seemingly on a date with [a] mystery girl named Beau. She was fairly tall, [though] definitely shorter than him.” The source added his leading lady had “brown hair and bangs.”

But the sightings did not end there, as the actor and his mystery girl made a wholesome grocery store run together. A separate source eyed “Butler at Gelson’s in LA…with [a] ‘beautiful, brunette, not too tall’ [woman].”

Since his 2024 breakup with Kaia Gerber, Butler has kept his private life quite discreet–despite being connected with a bevy of A-list brunette beauties. Back in September, the Oscar-nominated actor was briefly linked to Emily Ratajkowski, after they shared an intimate West Village dinner together. Whether a fling, date, or somewhere in between, these rumors dissipated just as quickly as they began.

As award season heats up, Deuxmoi wonders if Butler’s unidentified love interest will make any appearances.
