Chris Pine is getting the amore in Italy.
The "Star Trek" actor appeared to confirm a new romance Sept. 18 while walking hand-in-hand with a mystery woman in Portofino, Italy.
During their dinner date in the city, the 44-year-old actor dressed in a relaxed dark blue suit with an unbuttoned pink shirt underneath. The "Don’t Worry Darling" star—who has been rocking a bigger salt and pepper beard as of late—has since trimmed it down a bit. Making it the perfect complement to his longer tresses.

For his companion—whose name and identity are unknown—she opted for a dark coordinated pants and jacket set, which she layered over a cropped white shirt, and completed with sandals.
Pine's latest outing marks the first public relationship since his split from Annabelle Wallis in 2022. At the time, multiple outlets reported that the duo ended their relationship after four years.
After sparking romance rumors in 2018, Pine and Wallis continued to keep their love lowkey, as they made rare outings alongside each other—and never publicly disclosed any details.

Prior to his relationship with Wallis, Pine was linked to his "Star Trek" co-star Sofia Boutella in 2017. Pine has also been linked to Zoë Kravitz, Olivia Munn, and "The Hills" star, Audrina Partridge.
In 2021, Partridge revealed that she and Pine hung out “more than a few times” and went on one date, after their initial meeting in Las Vegas. However, she said that the timing was not right for them.
"I was filming 'The Hills' all the time, and his career was taking off," she explained on the Hollywood Raw podcast with Dax Holt and Adam Glyn. "He didn't like the whole paparazzi side of it. That was my life was going out, and I was followed by paparazzi. So being on 'The Hills,' our lives [were] completely opposite and just so different with my lifestyle and filming."
"He was more a real actor, theater actor, and loved to read books and jazz music. Didn't really like to go out to clubs or anything like that," the reality TV star added. "At that time in my life, that's all I was doing was going out to clubs because we were filming all the time and around people. He was a nice guy, very charming and gentlemanly. So it just kind of dissipated."
Although things fizzled between her and the "Princess Diaries 2" star, Partridge walked away knowing that he is in fact a good kisser.
