Love is (maybe) in the air!

Fans of How to Get Away with Murder are excited because stars Aja Naomi King and Alfred Enoch are rumored to be dating. The revelation comes after more and more photos pop up of the pair hanging out off-camera on Aja’s Instagram.

It’s not out of the ordinary for co-stars to hang out, but these two have protested together at the Women’s March, met up with her family in the UK, and Alfred was even her date at the Essence Black Women in Hollywood gala.

As E! News reports, King didn’t give a straight-forward answer when asked if they were dating. “I would like to clear up nothing,” she said. “People could think what they want and I’m going to let them… He’s a beautiful man, and I think I’m quite a lovely young lady.”

Ok, girl.

In a 2014 Cosmopolitan interview Alfred did admit to having a British girlfriend. 

“I was talking to my girlfriend and she was like, ‘If you think it’s [an American accent] going to help you, why would you not?’ The only real reason that I could come up with was that it was just going to be awkward tomorrow morning when I come downstairs and I’m talking differently.”

Alfred was also spotted last month in Brazil getting close to an unidentified women. But as we all know, actors can easily act like they’re happy in a relationship while planning a quick exit. 

With that said, while the pair remains coy about whatever is going on, we’ll just hold on to hopes that the rumors are true for now.
