Here’s What Is REALLY Going On Between Reese Witherspoon & Her Rumored New Man!

We guess Reese Witherspoon’s single girl era is not over like we thought it was!

A year after settling her divorce with ex-husband Jim Toth, the actress sparked romance rumors with German private equity financier Oliver Haarmann after they were spotted on what appeared to be a date in New York City this week. The pair reportedly flew into the city on a helicopter over the weekend and then dined at L’Artusi in the West Village on Monday night. See pictures from the outing (below):

Though it seemed like a date, a source told People on Thursday that Reese and Oliver are “friends.”Are they just two pals hanging out for now but leaving the option of becoming something more on the table? Or are things really strictly platonic between them? Hmm. A helicopter ride and a one-on-one dinner doesn’t always scream just friends! It’s honestly giving some romance vibes to us! And another insider for the outlet did say The Morning Show star “is taking things slow when it comes to dating,” adding:

“She enjoys it but doesn’t want it to be a big focus. She’s busy with work and her son. These are her biggest priorities.”

Perhaps Reese is just “taking things slow” with Oliver and seeing if he is a right fit for her life — you know, in a more than friend capacity! What do YOU think, Perezcious readers? Let us know in the comments below!
