People and Entertainment Tonight reported that Dakota Johnson and Machine Gun Kelly have been spending time together, with sources describing a new, undefined relationship. An Entertainment Tonight source said Johnson made the first move; neither person has publicly confirmed the relationship.
Sources cited by Entertainment Tonight and People say Dakota Johnson and Machine Gun Kelly have been spending time together and are exploring a new connection, though they have not defined it as a relationship. An Entertainment Tonight source said Johnson made the first move; neither actor has publicly confirmed the reported romance.
An insider told Entertainment Tonight that Johnson and Kelly, who had known each other socially, connected at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s July 3 wedding. The source said they have since been having fun and seeing where things go. The same source described Kelly as shy around Johnson and said both like each other. These are accounts from an unnamed source, not statements from either person.
A source close to Kelly told People on September 16 that the pair had been hanging out discreetly for months. The source said they began as friends, texted often and had recently started spending more time together. People also cited another source describing the connection as casual. The sources said the pair had not put a label on it.
The reports followed sightings of Johnson and Kelly together in New York City earlier in September and at the same Milan Fashion Week event on September 22. Their presence at the same events is observable; the nature and status of their relationship remain based on unnamed-source reporting.
A Public Story Without Confirmation
The accounts add detail to speculation prompted by the pair’s public appearances, including a source’s claim about who initiated their connection. But the lack of public confirmation means readers should distinguish reported private details from established facts. The central point in both outlets’ accounts is that the connection is new and undefined.
Johnson has generally kept her personal life out of public view. That makes the contrast between the growing attention around the pair and her limited public comment relevant: the reporting so far comes from sources, rather than an announcement by Johnson or Kelly.
Earlier Sightings and Relationships
Johnson and Kelly were first linked romantically in reports earlier in September after they were seen together in New York. Their appearance at the same Milan Fashion Week event on September 22 drew further attention. The sources cited by People place their private hangouts earlier, saying they had been seeing each other for months.
Johnson was previously engaged to Coldplay frontman Chris Martin. News of her reported breakup with musician Role Model emerged on August 19. In a recent Vogue interview, Johnson declined to discuss her current relationship status, while joking about her history of dating musicians. That interview did not confirm anything about Kelly.
““I don’t want to say anything about that.””

What the Pair Have Not Said
Johnson and Kelly have not publicly confirmed that they are dating, and there is no reported label or stated commitment. The accounts about when they connected, who made the first move and how often they meet come from unnamed sources. It is not clear whether either person will comment, or how the connection may develop.
Further Comment or More Sightings
No public announcement or next relationship milestone has been reported. Any change in the story will depend on direct comments from Johnson or Kelly, or further attributable reporting. Until then, the reported status remains a new connection that sources say is still casual and undefined.
