The summer’s most talked-about coupling is, without a doubt, Gigi Hadid and Bachelorette star Tyler Cameron. But don’t confuse coupling with couple: The two aren’t officially anything yet, according to multiple reports—they’re just hanging out. “Although Gigi and Tyler are spending more and more time together, they are still casually dating,” a source told Entertainment Tonight. “The two are enjoying building a friendship first, going on dates and having fun. Nothing more than that right now.”
Hadid and Cameron’s origin story is quite interesting. If you’ll recall, Cameron was Hannah Brown’s first runner-up on this season of The Bachelorette, but after things went awry with the man she actually picked, fans were hoping for the two of them to get together. And they did—sort of—for one night in Los Angeles earlier this month. Days later, though, Cameron was spotted in New York City seemingly on a date with Hadid. A media frenzy quickly ensued.
Hadid and Cameron have gone out a few times since that initial date, and they’re showing no signs of slowing down. To help you keep up, we’re starting a running tab on all of their outings. Read it for yourself, below, and check back here often for new information.
August 4: A date at the Soho/Dumbo House. This is where it all began. Hadid and Cameron were first spotted together hanging out at this exclusive social club in Brooklyn. Fans, naturally, went wild.

August 5: Bowling in New York City. A more casual second date. For this outing, Hadid and Cameron were joined by friends. According to People, the group bowled for a few hours before leaving to do some karaoke.
News that Tyler Cameron went on a date with Gigi Hadid just days after he spent the night with Hannah Brown has been rocking Bachelor Nation all week. Neither Cameron nor Hadid has commented on their recent hang-outs (there have been two that we know of), and Brown’s been incredibly diplomatic with the press. “I have feelings, but I’m also single and he’s single, and I want to keep my options open and he can keep his options open,” she told Entertainment Tonight. Soon after, she told Us Weekly she’s more or less done answering questions about Cameron. “I’m not going to talk about Tyler or any of that stuff. Thank you, next,” she said.
It doesn’t look like Brown’s going to expand on those “feelings” she has any time soon. But if People magazine’s latest report is to be believed, she’s not exactly jumping for joy over the idea of Hadid and Cameron kicking it. “Hannah is not thrilled,” a source tells the outlet. “It’s not that she doesn’t think he’s allowed to date other people, but it’s embarrassing.”

This essentially echoes what Brown told Entertainment Tonight, so no big surprises here. But a separate source gave some details about Hadid and Cameron’s situation that are a little juicy. “Their dates are definitely real and he’s having a good time,” they say. “It’s too soon to say Tyler and Gigi are ‘dating.’ They’re both being purposefully coy.”
Regardless of what’s going on, Hannah Brown has made it clear she wants nothing but happiness for Tyler Cameron, who was the runner-up on her season of The Bachelorette. (Some fans are clamoring for them to get together after the man Brown selected, Jed Wyatt, turned out to have a dramatic previous-relationship history.)
“I’m really appreciative that Tyler has always had my back and supported me through all my decisions. He constantly encourages me to lean into the strong woman that I am,” Brown wrote about Cameron on Instagram. “He’s a really good man, and I’m going to be his biggest fan in whatever makes him the happiest.”
Chris Harrison has some updates for Bachelor Nation about what’s going on between Tyler Cameron, Hannah Brown, and Gigi Hadid.
If you’re unfamiliar with what I’m talking about, let’s back up. Last week, we learned on The Bachelorette season finale that Brown ultimately chose Jed Wyatt over Cameron—but conflicting stories over Wyatt’s previous relationship history caused Brown to end their engagement. So now some fans are hoping she and her first runner-up, Cameron, get together.
It seemed like this was happening last Thursday, August 1, when we learned Cameron had spent the night at Brown’s house. But then we were hit with a curveball: On Sunday, August 4, Cameron and supermodel Gigi Hadid were spotted seemingly on a date in Brooklyn, New York. Fans, as you can imagine, went wild over this news.
So what is the truth? Is Tyler Cameron dating Gigi Hadid? Is he dating Hannah Brown? According to Chris Harrison, it’s neither. “People need to pump the brakes a little bit,” he tells Glamour. “Tyler and Hannah are not in a relationship. I don’t even think Hannah wanted a relationship. She just wanted to see him again, see where it stood. They’re friends. So Tyler’s not cheating on Hannah, Hannah’s not cheating on Tyler. Gigi Hadid is not even in this. There’s not even a love triangle. Everyone can pump their brakes a little bit.”
Hannah Brown echoed this sentiment in an interview with Entertainment Tonight. “I have feelings, but I’m also single and he’s single and I wanna keep my options open and he can keep his options open,” she told the outlet.
As for why Cameron might’ve gone on that date with Hadid, Harrison says, “I guess Tyler is a young, single guy, and he’s hitting the world as this popular, famous guy from our show. I know they get a lot of attention. I would just say to Tyler, he may want to call Blake, and maybe get a little advice on letting things go to your head.” Harrison is referring to Blake Horstmann, who reportedly dates several women on this season of Bachelor in Paradise and runs into trouble.
Speaking of other shows in this franchise: How will Cameron’s dates with Hadid and Brown affect his chances of becoming the next Bachelor? Harrison says, “This particular situation doesn’t affect it, but once we get to a point where we’re trying to figure out who the Bachelor is, we’re going to do a count, and [consider], ‘Is Tyler out there playing the field? Dating around?’ And that’s fine, but that’s not someone we’re going to want as the Bachelor. We want someone who is sincere, really looking for love, ready to settle down. And if that’s where you are in your life where you’re ready to hit the town and date around, then that’s fine, but that’s maybe not for us.”

When are the conventions?
The Democratic National Convention will go first. It will be held in Milwaukee, from July 13 to July 16, 2020. It’s the first time in more than a century that the DNC will take place in a Midwest city other than Chicago. Many have taken this as a sign that the Democrats are trying to focus on winning the votes of those in Wisconsin and other Midwestern industrial states in the next election.
No, I didn’t crash tonight’s date like Cam did on last week’s episode of The Bachelorette. I actually had an invitation from ABC to tag along for Hannah Brown’s group date—which was appropriately titled “Labor of Love”—with several of her men (Cam, John Paul Jones, and Tyler C. among them). As an avid viewer of The Bachelorette, I thought I knew what to expect. Turns out, I had no idea.
Here’s the thing about attending a group date (I was off-camera, of course) before the show has actually premiered: You go in with a blank slate and no preconceived notions. But five minutes into observing celebrity husband and wife team Jason Biggs and Jenny Mollen teach Hannah’s men about the female anatomy, I got a crash course into each guy’s personality, and who may—or may not—be the best guy for our bachelorette. Take a look in this exclusive clip below:

“It’s been super emotional already,” Hannah tells me during a break in filming. Now that I’ve seen the first two episodes, I get why: Luke P. has said he’s starting to fall in love with her; a guy named Scott was previously dating another girl a few days before coming on the show; and perfectly good chicken nuggets were thrown on the ground. I would have had a full-on meltdown by now.
So what does Hannah have to say about all of that? “I think that means [the process] is working.” And, “I do think my future person to do life with is here [on the show]. It’s surprising how fast I feel confident in that.”
Even so, Hannah admits it’s hard to know what’s going on in the mansion, and it’s especially not easy with the limited amount of time that she has on each date. “I’m just really pouring my heart out and making sure they know what they’re getting,” she says. “I just want real in return.”
She’s about to get it. On tonight’s first group date, the men learn what a woman actually goes through in labor, how painful it is to breastfeed, and how not to hold a baby (it’s not a football, Tyler C.).
ABC
“Today is supposed to be fun,” Hannah says, “but the deeper meaning is seeing who would be supportive. It’s OK if they don’t know where everything is [in the female anatomy] just yet. I’m OK with that! But it’s more about seeing who I want by my side in the good times, bad times, and painful times, who will be a good father and who I want to do that with in the future.”
Jonathan Saunders may not be that guy. “I was hoping I was prepared for it,” he tells me after a female anatomy lesson, “but with each passing moment I realized I have a lot to learn here.” Regardless, he says he’s confident in his “budding” relationship with Hannah and can’t wait to see “how it will continue and grow stronger.”
ABC
He’s going to have some competition though. “Cam has stepped up his game, and also Luke P. and Mike, who I’m here with today. Those three for sure [are my biggest competition]. They’ve made some moves that a lot of the other guys in the house haven’t been willing to do or execute. It’s so early in the game, but they’re the first ones to really take that step forward.”
When I talk to Cam later in the date, it’s obvious Jonathan’s assessment is spot on. “I’m here to be friendly, but not make friends,” Cam says. “Luke P. has been the most aggressive in terms of professing that he’s falling in love with Hannah after only knowing her for [like] 48 hours. Interesting tactic on his end. But I have to continue to build the momentum I have with Hannah and see if she feels the same way about me.”
Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas have been in all the headlines lately, thanks to a seemingly never-ending series of (gorgeous) wedding celebrations in Mumbai. Now, however, it appears that the newlyweds are in London, where they joined Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner for a double date.
The four had a late lunch in London’s Mayfair neighborhood on Sunday—a favorite area for the friends to dine out in. Specifically, they headed to Sexy Fish, and yes, that is the restaurant’s real name.
But that wasn’t the only double date they went on: The four headed out for dinner in Covent Garden on Saturday night, too. The newlyweds were spotted holding hands as they left The Delaunay in Covent Garden, Chopra wearing a neon-green version of the knitted cardigans that have been all over Instagram. They had another guest at the meal too: the Jonas’ younger brother, Frankie.
Date nights aside, Chopra has another reason to be proud of her new husband: Nick was named GQ‘s most stylish man on Friday—and the style icon in her own right is pretty excited about it.
Time will tell if the four are spending Christmas together, but we’ll keep our fingers crossed for more London fun with these four.
