Christopher Abbott And Aubrey Plaza Spark Dating Rumors After NYC Sighting...

Actor Christopher Abbott and comedian Aubrey Plaza are fueling dating speculation after being spotted together in New York City this week. Photos obtained by TMZ on Tuesday show the pair leaving a West Village restaurant, walking closely and laughing. The sighting has gone viral, with fans dissecting their body language for clues.

Abbott, 40, known for his roles in Catch-22 and The Sinner, and Plaza, 41, famous for Parks and Recreation and The White Lotus, have never publicly confirmed a relationship. Both recently became single—Abbott split from actress Margaret Qualley in 2025, while Plaza divorced filmmaker Jeff Baena in late 2024 after seven years of marriage.

The timing of their NYC outing coincides with Abbott’s upcoming Broadway debut in Betrayal and Plaza’s recent Emmy nomination for Agatha: Darkhold Diaries. Social media reactions have been mixed, with some fans thrilled about the potential pairing while others remain skeptical. Neither star has commented on the rumors as of Wednesday afternoon.

This isn’t the first time Plaza’s personal life has trended—her unconventional humor and candid interviews often make headlines. Abbott, meanwhile, maintains a lower profile despite critical acclaim. The duo previously worked together on the 2023 indie film Spin Me Round, though they shared no scenes.

Entertainment outlets are watching for further sightings or official confirmation. For now, the speculation continues to dominate pop culture chatter, with Twitter threads and TikTok edits dissecting every detail of their interaction. The pair’s reps have not responded to requests for comment.
