Cole Sprouse Just Broke His Silence on Those Lili Reinhart Dating Rumors
The second season of Riverdale premieres in just a few weeks, and fans are buzzing with excitement. Specifically, there are three things they need to know ASAP: 1) Who killed Archie’s father? 2) What is going on with Cheryl’s mother? and 3) For the love of God, are Cole Sprouse (Jughead) and Lili Reinhart (Betty) dating?
Rumors that Sprouse and Reinhart are in a relationship started circulating over the summer, but nothing’s been confirmed yet. There have been hints, though: Reinhart’s Instagram post about Sprouse for his birthday was very lovey-dovey, and, oh yeah, they secretly held hands during a Comic-Con interview. The signs are totally there, but neither of them have said anything, officially, about it.
Well, until now. In a new interview with Entertainment Weekly, Sprouse broke his silence on whether or not he and Reinhart are an item off-screen, too. (Their characters are in a relationship on the show.)
“Since the show began, people have wanted Lili and I to be together. People have wanted Lili and Camila to be together. People have wanted KJ and I to be together. People have wanted every actor on this show to be in a union that they could make real,” he said, according to Just Jared. “But truthfully, it’s very pleasing that people talk about Lili and I in that way because it means that we’re resonating so strongly that people really want that to be true.”
These quotes are vague, but Sprouse isn’t denying anything. If the rumors were complete rubbish, you’d think he would just set the record straight, but instead he’s adding fuel to the fire.
Granted, Sprouse and Reinhart don’t have to talk about their relationship at all; their personal lives, truthfully, are none of our business. However, if they never confirm their relationship, we have one request for the Riverdale writers: Let Bughead live, please. We need something!
