Keke Palmer and Sean Evans spark romance rumors after NYC dinner

Keke Palmer further fueled dating rumors after being spotted on a date night with “Hot Ones” host Sean Evans in New York City. TMZ said the duo was seen dining at Italian restaurant Lucali in Brooklyn on Friday night, and an eyewitness told the outlet they remained at the upscale establishment for over an hour and a half, “locked in” on each other.

Although the pair didn’t appear to engage in PDA, the source said Evans seemed “smitten.” Snapshots obtained by DeuxMoi and TMZ showed them deeply engaged in conversation over an intimate, candle-lit table. The duo intensified speculation in May when they flirted on Palmer’s “Baby, this is Keke Palmer” podcast.

Palmer introduced Evans as her “potential future suitor,” and exchanges included Evans saying his celebrity crush as a youth was Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes and Palmer replying, “I played Chili in the [‘CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story’] movie.
