Kaitlyn Dever, best known for her roles in Booksmart and The Last of Us, is giving fans a peek into her new romance with fellow actor and director Ethan Dawes.
The couple, who sparked dating rumors in December 2024, seemingly confirmed their relationship during the 2025 Vanity Fair Oscars Party, where they were photographed sharing affectionate moments.
At the event on March 2, 2025, the two were seen enjoying their night at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts.
Dawes planted a kiss on Dever’s cheek while they were at their table, and they also posed for a playful photo at the bar.
Despite their public displays of affection, Dever chose to walk the red carpet solo and kept her Instagram posts focused on solo shots from the evening.
This confirmed relationship comes just two months after they were first spotted attending the Brunello Cucinelli dinner together at the Chateau Marmont, leaving the event hand-in-hand.
Dawes, a director and actor, is no stranger to the entertainment industry. He has directed web series such as Chicken Girls and #Cybriety, and has worked on various film and television projects, including The Matrix Resurrections and Mayfair Witches.
He is also a musician, having been part of the electronic group Super Mash Bros during his college years at Emerson College in Boston.
While Dever has remained tight-lipped about her personal life, her relationship with Dawes is becoming more public as they continue to attend events together.
