Amelia Dimoldenberg is shedding light on her relationship with Andrew Garfield.
“We’re friends. I saw him at the Oscars and he’s a great guy, a great person,” Dimoldenberg, 31, told The Sunday Times in an interview published on Sunday, April 20. “We’ve got such a great dynamic.”
Garfield, 41, and Dimoldenberg made headlines in October 2024 when he appeared on her viral Chicken Shop Date interview series and discussed where they stand after fans had been shipping them for years.
“I think that there’s something going on,” she told Garfield, who replied, “Do you actually think that, or is this for the [cameras]? If this wasn’t here, do you think we’d actually go on a date? Do you think this is f***ed up, the fact that we could have actually gone on a date at some point? Maybe. Take out all the practicalities and the logic. I actually believe, maybe, we could have without all of this.”
Andrew Garfield has some thoughts on dating in Hollywood after years of high-profile relationships. The actor, 41, appeared on Amelia Dimoldenberg’s viral Chicken Shop Date interview series on Friday, October 18, during which he questioned the host whether she thinks she could actually find “the one” for her on the show. “Yeah. Do you not?” […]
Garfield confessed he thought the two of them would “have a really nice time” hanging out together, adding, “I think we’d just enjoy each other’s company.”
Dimoldenberg, however, told him, “I think we should be friends,” before expressing regret for friend-zoning Garfield and admitting that she wasn’t sure what she was looking for in a relationship. Garfield, for his part, went on to propose an idea to Dimoldenberg.
“I feel like this is, like, should be a practice round,” he said. “I feel we should do it again, actually, and better. This should just be, like, a rehearsal.”
The interview came less than one week after Dr. Kate Tomas, who had been romantically linked to Garfield since early 2024, confirmed via Instagram that the pair had split “months ago.” News broke in February that Garfield had started seeing Monica Barbaro. (Us Weekly reached out to Garfield and Barbaro’s reps at the time.)
Andrew Garfield and Monica Barbaro stepped together amid recent dating reports. Garfield, 41, and Barbaro, 41, were spotted outside a grocery store in Malibu, California, according to photos published on Sunday, March 16, by Instagram gossip account DeuxMoi. Garfield went incognito, sporting a red baseball cap with a pair of sunglasses as he held onto […]
Dimoldenberg, for her part, is single. “I’ve got my whole life to be settling down with someone. My life is very fast-paced,” she explained to The Sunday Times. “I’m going travelling, I’m working away, I’m doing all these different things. I feel like I’m really glad to be single at this moment.”
When the time comes, Dimoldenberg shared she hopes her man is “kind, thoughtful” and “intelligent.” As for whether the Chicken Shop Date hinders her romantic life, Dimoldenberg replied, “I feel like it depends. Obviously, the guys who I’m dating need to be confident in themselves for many different reasons. I also just feel like maybe my working gets in the way of dating more broadly. I definitely want to create space in my life to meet someone but, at the same time, I don’t want it to be the focus of everything.”
