Lea Michele has found a new love! The "Glee" alum is dating "One Tree Hill" alum and "iZombie" star Robert Buckley. "It's new," a source tells Us Weekly about the new couple's relationship.
According to the site, Lea and Robert, who have several mutual friends, were seen getting cozy on a dinner date at Milo & Olive in Santa Monica on Monday, May 9. An eyewitness says, "They were sitting at the bar all cuddly. He pushed her chair in for her and everything."
"They were interlocked the whole time they were sitting at the counter, like arms wrapped around each other at their seats and rubbing each other's backs," a second onlooker adds. "At one point ... they had either just kissed or were super close talking."
Fans on Twitter say the pair have been liking each other's posts on Instagram in recent weeks.
The new relationship comes several months after Lea broke up with her boyfriend Matthew Paetz after nearly two years of dating. "She's doing well and is focusing on friends and work," a source shared told E! News at the time. "This has been very sudden and hard, but if anyone can pick herself up it's Lea. She has a great network of friends."
