Kate Beckinsale Is Dating a 21-Year-Old

June 22, 2017

Kate Beckinsale is certainly not letting her divorce get the better of her.

The ‘Underworld’ star was photographed in the midst of a passionate kiss with 21-year-old up-and-coming comedian and TV personality, Matt Rife, in the early hours of Wednesday morning in West Hollywood.

According to sources close to the couple, the two met through mutual friends.

“They quickly started flirting, went on their first date and it’s continued since…Everyone in Kate’s circle loves Matt and are so supportive of this relationship [sic]…He really is the sweetest guy and makes her so happy! Her entire family thinks he is the nicest and most lovely person…He is very mature for his age and is a great guy,” a source said.

Kate recently finalised her divorce from husband of 12 years, Les Wiseman, last year following their split in November of 2015.

The 43-year-old actress has an 18-year-old daughter from her previous relationship with fellow British actor, Michael Sheen.

While neither Kate nor Matt has commented publicly on their relationship, they don’t seem to mind the paparazzi attention.
