Cara Delevingne Opened Up About How Dating Ashley Benson Has Changed Her


When Cara Delevingne and actress Ashley Benson began dating a little over a year ago, Delevingne seemed to keep her personal life a little closer to the vest. Which, fair enough: She’s a celebrity—boundaries must be set! But having Benson in the picture, said Delevingne in a recent Porter interview, has led her to become a more open, trusting person who no longer ‘pushes people away.’ Ah, love.

“I’d never truly let anyone in before, for fear of them leaving,” Delevingne said of life before Benson in the interview, published Friday (September 13). “I never really trusted people, or felt worthy of it, and I always pushed them away.”

But with Benson, she says, that just wasn’t an option: “She’s the first person that has said, ‘You can’t push me away. I’m going to be nice to you, I love you.’ I’m just like, wait, so all I have to do is just let you be nice to me? Why have I never done that before?”

This isn’t the first time the two revealed little bits and pieces of their romance. In June, the duo revealed they were officially dating by posting a video of them kissing on set. The pair even appears to have inked their love with tattoos referencing one another.

Earlier in September, Delevingne shared a bit more of her romantic life during an interview with Elle UK. After the interviewer asked her what love felt like for her, Delevingne replied, “I’m just better when I’m in love.”

“That doesn’t have to mean with someone,” she added. “It can also mean with myself. It just feels incredible when you’re not alone, when you’re facing the world with someone else.”

As to why the pair keep their relationship out of the public eye, Delevingne told Elle UK, “Because it’s sacred. I get why people care so much, and I don’t want to be so secretive that people think I’m ashamed of anything… But I’ve never been in a relationship where things are so public, or where I posted pictures of someone else. This seemed different. We had gotten to the point where we had kept it a secret, or at least not wanted attention, and now I feel like I’m not going to not be proud. Which isn’t the same thing as wanting to pose on a red carpet together, either.”

Each couple has their own style—and it certainly seems like Delevingne and Benson have found the balance that works right for them.

Cara Delevingne and Ashley Benson's Relationship: A Complete Timeline


Ever since going public with their relationship this year, Cara Delevingne and Ashley Benson have been seen out more frequently, exchanging a little PDA. The couple, who starred in the 2018 film Her Smell together, have done a few red carpets together, attended sporting events, and even made a joint appearance at Zoe Kravitz’s wedding in the spring.

Through it all, they’ve had to put up with a pretty intense rumor mill. Engagement chatter sparked after the two were spotted wearing matching rings on vacation. “I get why people care so much, and I don’t want to be so secretive that people think I’m ashamed of anything,” Delevingne told Elle UK. “But I’ve never been in a relationship where things are so public, or where I posted pictures of someone else. This seemed different. We had gotten to the point where we had kept it a secret, or at least not wanted attention, and now I feel like I’m not going to not be proud. Which isn’t the same thing as wanting to pose on a red carpet together, either. People make their own assumptions and that’s what worried me. Because if it is something that is so good, you don’t ever want anyone to ever change it, even though people shouldn’t have that power.”

Here’s a compete timeline of how it all started.

May 2018: The relationship rumors kicked off when Delevingne and Benson were seen out and about together. Someone saw them at a bowling alley, and another fan noticed them near a parking meter in Hollywood.

Benson posts her first photo with Delevingne, but doesn’t say anything that implies a relationship.

August 2018: Things heated up when a photo circulated of the couple kissing at London’s Heathrow Airport. Benson also hung out at Delevingne’s 26th birthday alongside Margot Robbie and Sienna Miller. That month, Benson took a selfie wearing necklaces with a letter “A” and “C,” which many people thought referred to her and Cara.

September 2018: Delevingne and Benson both went to the Toronto International Film Festival to premiere Her Smell, which they appeared in together. While they posed on the red carpet separately, photographers captured them hanging out with some of their co-stars at a cocktail party later.

Cara Delevingne Just Opened Up About Her 'Sacred' Relationship With Ashley Benson


In June, after months of speculation, Cara Delevingne and Ashley Benson publicly confirmed their relationship with an Instagram video of the two kissing. Since then, they’ve been the subject of marriage rumors and gotten tattoos that appear to reference each other.

But we haven’t really known much about their relationship, until now, thanks to a new interview Delevingne gave to Elle UK. The interviewer, Derek Blasberg, referenced the model-actress’s speech at a Trevor Project event where she’d mentioned that she was in love. “What does love feel like for Cara?” he asked.

“I’m just better when I’m in love,” she said. “That doesn’t have to mean with someone. It can also mean with myself. It just feels incredible when you’re not alone, when you’re facing the world with someone else.”

Delevingne also explained why she and Benson have tried to keep a low profile and not speak too much publicly about their relationship.

“Because it’s sacred. I get why people care so much, and I don’t want to be so secretive that people think I’m ashamed of anything,” she said. “But I’ve never been in a relationship where things are so public, or where I posted pictures of someone else. This seemed different. We had gotten to the point where we had kept it a secret, or at least not wanted attention, and now I feel like I’m not going to not be proud. Which isn’t the same thing as wanting to pose on a red carpet together, either.”

“People make their own assumptions and that’s what worried me. Because if it is something that is so good, you don’t ever want anyone to ever change it, even though people shouldn’t have that power.”

Honestly, that sounds like an extremely healthy approach to trying to have a relationship as a person in the spotlight. Good luck, you two!

Cara Delevingne and Ashley Benson Are Reportedly Not Married After All


A Cara Delevingne and Ashley Benson wedding would be amazing (and incredibly stylish) if and when it happens—and although an exclusive in The Sun alleged on Sunday (August 4) that Delevingne and Benson tied the knot during a ceremony in Las Vegas, that doesn’t seem to be the case.

According to The Sun‘s report, both Benson and Delevingne wore black as they wed in front of an Elvis Presley impersonator at the Little Vegas Chapel. A handful of guests reportedly attended, including Charlize Theron, Sophie Turner, and the Jonas Brothers. (Turner and Joe Jonas got married in a surprise Vegas ceremony earlier this year.)

But, apparently, none of this happened: A source told E! News that “Delevingne and Benson are not legally married, but did have a fun friendship ceremony about a year ago.” There also was no marriage license for the couple in the Las Vegas public records, E! reports.

Delevingne and Benson have been linked to one another since the summer of 2018. They’ve kept things pretty private and didn’t confirm that they were dating until Delevingne posted an Instagram video in June of this year. She shared a clip from “Her Smell,” a movie they star in together, that shows them kissing and wrote “Pride” in the caption, nodding to this year’s Pride celebration that coincided with the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall riots.

Later, E! News asked Delevingne about why she wanted to make the post and the news public, and she responded, “I don’t know because it is Pride, it’s been 50 years since Stonewall happened and I don’t know. It’s been just about our one-year anniversary so, why not?”

All the wedding rumors started this summer, when the couple was seen vacationing together in Saint Tropez with matching bands on their fingers. Fans excitedly jumped to conclusions that they’d gotten engaged, but Benson’s mom was quick to seemingly shut it down on Instagram.

Married or not, neither Delevingne or Benson have actually said anything about the wedding—and it’ll be up to them to share any actual relationship updates.

Ashley Benson's New Tattoo Sure Looks Like a Tribute to Cara Delevingne


The Internet can’t stop buzzing about Ashley Benson and Cara Delevingne‘s relationship. The two actors confirmed to the world that they’re an item in June, when Delevingne posted a video of the couple kissing. (Benson commented on the post with three simple hearts.)

Now, it appears they have taken the next step in the celebrity relationship timeline: tattoos. In a new Instagram post promoting her collaboration with eyewear brand Prive Revaux, Ashley Benson’s newest ink was on full display, and it sure looks like it’s a tribute to Cara Delevingne. As you can see in the Instagram post, below, Benson has the letters “C” and “D” tattooed on her side, near her armpit. “So excited to share this with you guys ? My new collection with @priverevaux is here. Link in bio,” she wrote in the caption.

Fans quickly spotted the initials. “C.D magaaadd♥️?,” one person wrote. Another posted, “I spy caras initials!?.”

This isn’t the first time Benson has seemingly paid tribute to Delevingne. Last August, she posted a photo on Instagram wearing a necklace with Delevingne’s initial (“C”) and her own (“A”).

Though the couple seems super happy together, they’ve still had to deal with some drama and apparent homophobia. “Ashley I know you are here,” one stranger wrote on Benson’s Instagram back in April. “I’m serious, you need to stay away from that devil and never go back. I’m sure many strong, handsome, religious man [sic] would take you back in a heartbeat. You are not like this. You aren’t gay. You love men, and you need one.”

Benson didn’t take this comment lying down, of course. She shut down the troll with a simple, pointed statement: “You need to mind your own business. Stop making things up.” Say it louder for the people in the back, Ash.

Cara Delevingne and Ashley Benson Just Officially Confirmed They're Dating


People have been semi-certain for a while that Cara Delevingne and Ashley Benson are dating, but the two officially confirmed the rumors on Friday night (June 14) via—what else?—an Instagram. They reportedly met on the set of the film Her Smell, which was released in April, and have since been snapped kissing in London. Benson’s also been spotted wearing a necklace with “A” and “C” on it and spent Delevingne’s birthday with her. But despite a comment in September by Benson on a ‘gram of Delevingne’s, which seemed to confirm the two were dating (Benson later said she was hacked), there’s been no official word on their status until now.

The Instagram was posted to Delevingne’s account, and it’s basically them making out. Delevingne captioned the ‘gram: “#PRIDE ?❤️??❤️?” and tagged Benson in it.

Benson left a comment of her own: three hearts, which makes it about as official as possible.

The couple’s proud Instagram comes in the wake of a homophobic comment left on a ‘gram of Benson’s by a troll in late April. “Ashley I know you are here,” they wrote, according to BuzzFeed. “I’m serious, you need to stay away from that devil and never go back. I’m sure many strong, handsome, religious man [sic] would take you back in a heartbeat. You are not like this. You aren’t gay. You love men, and you need one.”

Benson and Delevingne promptly clapped back, of course: “You need to mind your own business,” Benson wrote, according to Buzzfeed. “Stop making things up.”
