Alix Earle and Benson Boone sparked romance rumors after being spotted out to dinner in Los Angeles — and leaving together in his car.
The twosome were photographed on Thursday, June 18, leaving celebrity hotspot Craig’s after seemingly enjoying a meal together.
Earle, 25, was all smiles in a picture published by Extra, wearing oversized jeans and a black sheer lacy tank top. The influencer’s hair was down with light wavy curls and her skin was sunkissed.
The “Beautiful Things” singer, 23, wore a similarly casual ensemble for the date, rocking black jeans, black boots and a black shirt that showed off a little bit of his chest around the neckline. Boone topped off his look with tinted sunglasses and carried a distressed leather jacket.
As the pair left the restaurant, Boone was seen opening Earle’s passenger side door before walking around and getting into the driver’s seat, according to a video posted by TMZ.
When asked, “Are you two dating?” Boone told the outlet, “Uh, no.” The musician then clarified that he and Earle were “just hanging out.”
While Boone denied that he and Earle are a couple, it’s not the first time the duo have spent time together this month, causing some fans to speculate that their relationship isn’t strictly platonic.
Their L.A. outing comes just days after Earle was featured in Boone’s Tuesday, June 16, TikTok video teasing his upcoming music video for “The Time of My Life,” which comes out on June 26.
In the video, Boone and Earle both wore medieval costumes as they lip-synced to the lyrics of the Grammy nominee’s unreleased track.
“The queen fr,” Boone captioned the cheeky clip, tagging Earle.
Boone wore leather pants, a leather vest, white shirt and leather gloves in the video as he held a giant sword in his lap, using it as a microphone. Earle, for her part, donned a flowy shirt, white blouse and corset that showed off her toned stomach.
The pair previously hinted at their playful relationship via TikTok on June 10 when Boone recreated a post made by Earle earlier in the month.
In the video, Boone wore a black lace minidress — like the one Earle wore in her own upload — while sitting on a leather couch. He proceeded to get up and twirl around on a balcony, skipping as he sang along to his upcoming song, “The Time of My Life.”
“This song is going to wreck me,” he wrote over the clip, tagging Earle in the caption.
Boone’s wardrobe and dancing in the video was a nod to Earle’s previous clip in which she wore a lace dress and frolicked on a yacht while lip-synching to the same song. “Release it now plz,” she captioned her video.
Earle and Boone’s flirtatious banter and dinner date comes after recent splits for both of them.
The “Slow It Down” singer broke up with Maggie Thurmon in September 2025 after dating for nearly two years.
Us Weekly confirmed in December 2025 that Earle had split from NFL player Braxton Berrios after their two-year romance.
She was later linked to Tom Brady after the pair were spotted getting cozy at a party over New Year’s in St. Barts.
A source exclusively told Us in February that Earle and Brady, 48, were “hooking up,” but noted that “neither wants anything serious,” so “it’s casual.”
