On October 18, Andrew Garfield finally made his highly anticipated appearance on Amelia Dimoldenberg’s popular YouTube show, Chicken Shop Date. This encounter comes after months of speculation about their relationship, fueled by their flirty interactions on the red carpet. Most notably at the 2023 Golden Globes. But despite the chemistry that fans have picked up on, the question remains: are Amelia Dimoldenberg and Andrew Garfield really dating?
The episode begins with a playful back-and-forth, setting the tone for the rest of the conversation. Dimoldenberg teases Garfield, pointing out how they haven’t seen each other in a while and joking that he’s been ‘avoiding’ her. Garfield, ever charming, responds that he too is surprised to be there, giving fans even more reason to question what’s going on between the two.
The real spark between them, however, lies in the way they talk about their past interactions. Referring to their brief yet viral moments at the 2022 GQ Men of the Year party and the Golden Globes, Garfield acknowledges that they had ‘a couple of lovely interactions.’ Dimoldenberg calls it fate, while Garfield calls them ‘meet-cutes,’ alluding to the classic rom-com trope.

As they continue talking, the playful flirting turns into a more introspective conversation about dating and relationships. When Garfield asks if Dimoldenberg believes one of her guests could walk away thinking, “This is it,” she responds confidently, hinting at the genuine connections she’s made through the show. This leads to a more serious exchange, where Garfield openly flirts, calling her confidence ‘sexy’ and ‘hot.’
At this point, things take a curious turn. Dimoldenberg admits she believes there’s ‘something going on’ between them, prompting Garfield to ask if she thinks they could have ever gone on a real date, outside of the show. Garfield even suggests that without the cameras and the pressure of the show’s format, they might have been able to explore something real. The chemistry between the two is undeniable.
However, in a surprising twist, Dimoldenberg jokingly ‘friend-zones’ Garfield, saying they should just be friends—before quickly second-guessing herself, realizing that it might not have been the right move. Garfield remains open, calmly responding with, “Unless that’s what you want,” leaving the door wide open for further possibilities.
The episode wraps up on a hopeful note, with Garfield suggesting that their Chicken Shop Date should be viewed as a ‘practice round’ for a real one. Dimoldenberg, who has previously hinted that she could genuinely meet someone through the show, seems intrigued by the idea.
While the flirty banter and chemistry suggest that there’s definitely a spark, it seems the answer is still up in the air. Whether they’re on the verge of something more or simply enjoying the playful dynamic between them, one thing is certain: this episode has left fans craving another interaction—and possibly, a real date.
