Screaming! Andrew Garfield Says He'd Take Amelia Dimoldenberg Out On A 'Real Date'

After two years of the chronically online community shipping Amelia Dimoldenberg and Andrew Garfield, these soulmates have finally gone on their highly anticipated chicken shop date, and I can’t stop giggling. The slow burn! The chemistry! The constant breaking of the fourth wall! I’ve never been more invested in a nonexistent (allegedly) couple in my life. The streets have been saying this might just be Amelia’s last chicken shop date, and after watching those 12 minutes of romance, I have to agree. The chicken-loving professional flirt and everyone’s favorite babygirl male celebrity are meant to be, just as we all suspected. They did low-key torture us by teasing this episode for about 50 years, but my god was it worth the wait. To celebrate the momentous occasion, let’s recap Andrew Garfield and Amelia Dimoldenberg’s chicken shop date and dissect their lore, shall we?

Andrew Garfield And Amelia Dimoldenberg’s History And Relationship, Explained

Amelia Dimoldenberg And Andrew Garfield Chicken Shop Date Recap

“Sparks were flying” is the understatement of the century. This was electric and life-changing. I felt like I was intruding. “We can own that it’s been vibey,” Andrew admitted right at the beginning. Amelia scoffed, “Yeah, it’s been vibey to the point where you’ve been avoiding me for two years because the vibes were too much for you to handle.” CALL HIM OUT!

Naturally, they played a game of “Snog Marry Avoid” (the British and polite version of “Fuck Marry Kill”) and Amelia presented Tom Holland, Tobey Maquire, and herself as the options. “I’d have to avoid you then,” Andrew teased. “I can’t do that to either of those guys! I can do that to you.” When Amelia, clearly offended, asked if he was kidding, he said “of course” and emphasized, “This is called flirting, Amelia. This is called flirting.” I screamed.

The most insane part of the episode? Andrew asked Amelia if she thinks they’d ever go on a date outside of the chicken shop. He pressed, “Do you think this has fucked up the fact that we could’ve actually gone on a date at some point?” She coyly told him she didn’t know and he said, “I actually believe maybe we could’ve.” Not to mention, Amelia revealed that Andrew already has her number because he asked for it at a party?!? This is all just cruel if they don’t end up together immediately.

Andrew Garfield And Amelia Dimoldenberg’s Viral Red Carpet Interviews

Andrew and Amelia’s red carpet interviews are like watching a real-life rom-com unfold. In fact, Netflix, can you please make a rom-com based on this love story? Amelia first interviewed Andrew in November 2022 at the GQ Men of the Year Awards. (Why do we have a whole award show for men? I’m confused.) During their red carpet chat there, Amelia revealed, “I’ve been trying to get a date with you for a while,” but Andrew claimed he hadn’t gotten the invite. He pointed out that she dates a lot of people and admitted that while he thinks that’s “wonderful,” he just feels “like, less special, I guess.” Awww. Amelia swiftly assured her hopefully future BF that he is “the most special.” Later in the interview, the actor told the social media star, “You look very beautiful,” and she giggled and looked very close to swooning.

Even with all that chemistry, Andrew still avoided going on a chicken shop date for a while, but he did run into Amelia again at the 2023 Golden Globes. She joked, “We must stop meeting like this.” That’s when Andrew, like, forgot he was on camera and said, “I only ever wanna see you.” Amelia responded with a baffled “what?” and Andrew broke down in laughter and attempted to save himself: “On like a… that’s not the end of the sentence! I only ever wanna see you in these sort of situations.” Mhmmmm. I’m sure that’s what he meant! When Amelia asked about “other situations,” he claimed that he was “not interested,” but that’s not what his body language was communicating.

During the same unhinged interview, Andrew asked Amelia about her sign. Apparently, she’s an Aquarius, which is his moon sign. “If you have a sun sign that’s the same as the moon sign of someone else, it’s good,” he pointed out. Okay, astrology king! Were two people ever more compatible?

Is Andrew Garfield Single?

Andrew is indeed single and ready to mingle more with Amelia! He was linked to philosopher and spiritual reader Dr. Kate Tomas back in March — they were spotted seemingly on a double date with Phoebe Bridgers and Bo Burnham. But Kate decided to casually spill the tea about their relationship status in a recent Instagram comment. When someone commented on her post, asking her to tell Andrew that they’re a fan, Kate replied, “We broke up months ago but I’m sure he will be happy to know that he is loved 🥰❤️.” Sounds like it was a pretty amicable split. Thank goodness there’s room in his heart for the queen of chicken shops.
