AceShowbiz - It's official! Chace Crawford and Victoria's Secret model Kelsey Merritt are a couple. The actor, known for his role as Nate Archibald on "Gossip Girl" and currently starring as The Deep in Amazon Prime's "The Boys," was spotted flaunting PDA with his new girlfriend in the city.
The 39-year-old actor and the 28-year-old model, seen enjoying a shopping trip and sharing affectionate moments, have seemingly confirmed their relationship as they stepped out in New York City.
They looked cozy and content together. Crawford sported a casual grey sweater, jeans, white sneakers, and a black Nike baseball hat wile Merritt opted for a classic white T-shirt and jeans under a beige bomber jacket with a brown leather collar.
Earlier in January, the pair sparked dating rumors when they were seen together in Los Angeles. The outing came just a month after Crawford revealed his single status on Alex Cooper's popular "Call Her Daddy" podcast.
It's unclear how Crawford met Merritt, but the actor told Cooper that he joined exclusive dating app, Raya, but admitted to having little success with the platform, describing the online dating scene as a "dumpster fire."
He jokingly mentioned his dating dealbreakers, citing "punctuality" and "bad tats," humorously adding, "Maybe a neck-tat is probably a dealbreaker for me. It's actually never happened!"
As fans eagerly await more updates on this budding romance, it's clear that Chace Crawford and Kelsey Merritt are enjoying their time together, one chic outing at a time.
