Gracie Abrams has candidly discussed the swirling speculation surrounding her and Paul Mescal.
After being snapped together at London's Brat restaurant last month, Abrams, 24, and Irish actor Mescal, 28, found themselves in a storm of romance rumours.
"It's all spooky," the singer told The Sunday Times of the moment she was photographed enjoying dinner.

The singer didn't confirm or deny the frenzy of rumours suggesting the stars were dating one another. However, she did reveal how she she feels about being famous.

"I never wanted to be a performer," Abrams shared. "I just wanted to write."
"I feel like going places feels less discreet sometimes. I'm just adjusting in that capacity slightly."
She added, "But what can you do? It's a real blessing for people to acknowledge the thing that I love to do so much."
Early in her career, Abrams received the gig of a lifetime: opening for Taylor Swift's highly anticipated Eras Tour. The rest is history.
"I had absolutely zero expectation of being included in that capacity," Abrams said.

"When I met her, it kind of felt like we had known each other already, which I'm sure there was an element of just like the parasocial relationship thing. I've grown up with her voice in my headphones my entire life."
The musician shared that despite hailing from the acclaimed director-producers J.J. Abrams and Katie McGrath, her upbringing was: "Significantly less glamorous," than some might think.
"My parents would go to work and then they would come home. They'd ask [my two siblings and I] about school, they'd ask us about friends, big ideas that kids have — all of the typical mundane, magical, boring s–t," she recalled.
"I was so uninterested in being associated with anything that my dad was doing for work growing up – not because I don't love him – but because I just had zero interest in going down that path, you know?"
