As stars soak up the sun this summer, it appears a few have taken a shining to someone new.
Take Tom Cruise and Ana deArmas, for instance. While the Knives Out alum has emphasized her working relationship with the Mission: Impossible star since they sparked romance rumors in February, fans have made it their mission to learn more about the duo after photos spread of them walking hand in hand in Vermont.
Jessica Alba and Danny Ramirez drew attention with their recent trip too. Six months after announcing the end of her marriage to CashWarren, the Fantastic Four actress and the Captain America: Brave New World actor were seen boarding a plane in Cancún that was headed for Los Angeles on July 13, per a video shared by TMZ. Almost two weeks later, the outlet published photos of the pair kissing.
However, they aren’t the only ones who may have a summer crush. Reports have also spread that Jennifer Aniston is dating Jim Curtis. And while it’s far too early to tell if he’s her lobster, the Friends star and the hypnotist were recently photographed vacationing in Mallorca with their celebrity pals.
Although, Jen’s costar from The Morning ShowReese Witherspoon was already on a trip of her own—taking in Saint-Tropez with Oliver Haarmann. And while there may have been questions about where the Legally Blonde alum and the financier stood when they were first linked last fall, it now seems pretty clear how they feel about each other (What? Like it’s hard? Just look at the PDA-packed photos from their getaway).
For now, it appears these stars prefer to keep their relationship statuses private rather than give them a place in the sun (E! News has reached out to their reps for comment but has yet to hear back). Others, however, are open to giving fans glimpses into their sizzling romances—like how Megan Thee Stallion and KlayThompson recently made their red carpet debut as a couple or how Love Island USA’s ConnorNewsum and Carmen Kocourek confirmed they’re Instagram official.
If your heart is longing to learn more about the romance rumors and hard launches that have already entered this season, keep reading.
Tom Cruise & Ana de Armas
Fans are looking to solve the mystery of where Ana de Armas and Tom Cruise stand.
While the Knives Out actress has spoken only about her working relationship with the Top Gun alum since they first sparked dating rumors in February, the pair’s subsequent outings—including a hand-in-hand stroll through Vermont in July—raised questions of whether a new romance was taking flight.
E! News has reached out to their reps for comment but has yet to hear back.
Jessica Alba & Danny Ramirez
While fans know Jessica Alba played Sue Storm, they might not be as caught up on the romance rumors that have been brewing.
Six months after her split from husband Cash Warren, the Fantastic Four actress was spotted hanging out with Top Gun: Maverick’s Danny Ramirez. In fact, they were seen boarding a flight from Cancun to Los Angeles on July 13, per a video shared by TMZ. Neither Jessica nor Danny has commented on the dating speculation. But on July 26, the outlet published photos of the two sharing a kiss.
Jennifer Aniston & Jim Curtis
The one where Jennifer Aniston sparked romance rumors with Jim Curtis.
Reports spread that the Friends star and the hypnotist are dating after they were photographed vacationing together in Mallorca in early July. And while they’ve yet to comment on if they’re more than friends, Jennifer has dabbled in Jim’s area of expertise to help with her fear of flying.
“I have been doing some hypnosis lately,” she told Travel + Leisure in April, “and one of the requirements is to remove all of those superstitions.”
Megan Thee Stallion & Klay Thompson
Megan Thee Stallion is having a Hot Girl Summer with someone special by her side: Klay Thompson.
Days after the Grammy winner and the basketball player made their romance Instagram official, they made their red carpet debut as a couple at her Inaugural Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala in New York. But even though they’ve gone public, they still want to keep some details of their love story private—including how they first huddled up.
“We met and it was such a meet-cute,” Megan told People at the July 16 event. “It was like a f–king movie. I won’t tell you how and I won’t tell you when, but it was a movie.”
And when it comes to Klay, she added “that he’s the nicest person I’ve ever met in my life.”
Reese Witherspoon & Oliver Haarmann
Reese Witherspoon isn’t objecting to a romantic getaway with Oliver Haarmann.
While the jury was out on whether the Legally Blonde actress and the financier were dating after they were first spotted together last fall, the verdict came in after People published photos of the duo kissing on a yacht off the coast of Saint-Tropez, France, July 13.
Anna Kendrick & Alex Edelman
Could this be an aca-awesome romance?

At first, JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes seemed to be dancing around their connection.
After growing close on Celebrity Big Brother andinsisting for weeks that they were just friends, the Dance Moms alum and the Love Island star finally confirmed their relationship had evolved to something more.
“It’s not platonic any more,” JoJo admitted to The Guardian in an interview shared June 2, “and it’s been a beautiful development, a beautiful connection, and I’m absolutely head over heels for him and he’s the same way.”
In fact, Chris says they’ve already thought about next steps.
“I’d love to marry her,” he told The Sun‘s Fabulous. “I’d be lying if I didn’t tell you I run through scenarios of our wedding day. We’d have a proper English wedding and I can imagine her in a full wedding dress. We both want kids. We come from loving families. My mum loves her. She’s my best friend. I love that she’s the person I have to do nothing with and still have the best time. That’s everything to me.”
Katurah Topps & Sabiyah Broderick
Katurah Topps and Sabiyah Broderick have found a love that will outlast their run on season 45 of Survivor.
“On Survivor, we both struggled with fire,” Katurah wrote in a June 22 Instagram post. “I couldn’t make it and she went a week without it. But what we’ve built together? That’s a fire that finally lit itself!”
And they’ll never feel like they’re alone on an island as long as they have each other.
