If you’re still reeling from the news that Kaia Gerber and Austin Butler have called it quits, you may want to take a seat.

The supermodel is no stranger to high-profile relationships, and her latest romantic link is no stranger to the spotlight. As of the past few months, the (arguably, most-palatable) nepo-baby has reportedly returned to the dating scene, and her alleged new man is a silver-screen star who you probably recognise from the latest Top Gun reboot. But who is this Hollywood hunk of so we speak?  Read on for more.

Is Kaia Gerber Dating Someone New?

The model-turned-actress is reportedly in a new relationship with the 32-year-old actor, Lewis Pullman, and it seems the pair hard-launched at Lewis’ birthday dinner at Salazar. According to images released by Daily Mail from the dinner, the pair looked pretty smitten with one another. Ah, the honeymoon phase. Lewis’ father (actor Bill Pullman) was present at the festivities too, and we can only assume Kaia made an excellent impression with some book recommendations to break the ice.

For a relatively fresh relationship, there’s been no shortage of curiosity surrounding the couple. An unnamed source told E! News that the pair were “holding hands and [were] very affectionate” throughout the evening, while People published that “They’ve been spending time together the last few weeks,” and, “They’re a cute couple and very low-key.”

When Did Kaia Gerber and Lewis Pullman Start Dating?

US Weekly was one of the first to report that Kaia was seen out with Lewis back in December 2024. An anonymous source divulged: “In early December, Kaia and Lewis started seriously hanging out and were seen all around L.A., but mostly on the east side. Kaia would make sure to be in a hat to try and be unnoticed, but they would be at their favourite restaurants, bars and clubs, holding hands and showing PDA. They were just frequenting crowds that didn’t really know them.”

Who Is Lewis Pullman?

Lewis James Pullman is a Los Angeles-born actor best known for his stellar roles in the cult-classic reboot, Top Gun: Maverick, Marvel Studios’ Thunderbolts*, Lessons in Chemistry, and the star-studded mystery thriller, Bad Times at the El Royale

Over the years he has received numerous accolades for his on-screen work, including a Critics’ Choice Award, Independent Spirit Award and Primetime Emmy Award in 2024 for his role in Lessons in Chemistry. As he tends to remain a private guy, not much is known about his personal interests and ventures outside of his high-profile profession.
