During her interview with Monica Barbaro at the Oscars on Sunday, March 2, Amelia Dimoldenberg wasted no time in pointing out that she and the actress “have something in common".

While everyone watching assumed Dimoldenberg was about to drop the Garfield bomb, she instead threw a curveball, cheekily saying, “Was your first foray into theater, [Shakespeare’s] A Midsummer Night’s Dream?”

Barbaro, probably feeling a wave of relief sweep over her, quickly responded, “Yes.” Amelia then grinned, revealing that it was her first theater role too.

“That’s what I thought you were going to say,” Monica quipped, undoubtedly knowing what everyone else had been thinking.

The clip, which has since gone viral, capturing Dimoldenberg's signature wit, turned what could have been a painfully awkward exchange into a hilarious moment.

Andrew Garfield-Amelia Dimoldenberg flirtationship comes to an end

For those unfamiliar with the lore, Andrew Garfield and Amelia Dimoldenberg have had a flirtationship at Hollywood events over the years, sending fans into a frenzy with their undeniable chemistry.

But despite all the playful exchanges and hopeful shipping, their romance never made the jump from red-carpet teasing to real-life dating.

Now, that ship has officially sailed, because Andrew is off the market.



 

People confirmed last month that the 40-year-old actor is dating 'Top Gun: Maverick' star Monica Barbaro.

“They’ve been really lowkey and have been spending time together quietly,” a source told the outlet on February 21.



 

In February, the two were seen attending a performance of 'Richard II' at London's Bridge Theatre, where Jonathan Bailey took the stage.

A video shared on social media on February 20 showed Garfield and Barbaro, dressed down in casual attire and baseball caps, engaged in conversation before the show started.
