A new report says that The Walking Dead stars Norman Reedus (Daryl) and Emily Kinney (Beth) are actually dating in real life. Did they find love while doing the blockbuster series?
US Magazine reported that although the pair never really hooked up on camera, Reedus (46) and Kinney (29) were seen to be pretty close.
"They had a connection early on in the show," says a source close to the duo, "but the romance developed recently. They're still pretty guarded about it."
Basically, it's pretty safe to assume that the pair started dating once Kinney was off the show. Reedus was also reported to support the singer-songwriter on her concerts. "He was one of the first to support her at her concerts when she was still on the show," a source for Hollywoodlife revealed.
Some fans of AMC's The Walking Dead noticed Reedus in the audience at Kinney's May 21 show in Decatur, GA and they all got pretty excited.
"For some time everyone wanted two of the most beloved Walking Dead characters to be together, but of course, Beth was killed off," says the observer.
"She (Kinney) always called him the sweetest guy on the set," says a source. When Kinney learned that she's going to be killed off the show, Reedus was one of the first to get in touch.
"Everyone reached out, though I remember Norman texted me-he's so sweet," Kinney revealed.
Currently, Reedus and the rest of The Walking Dead cast are filming Season 6 in Atlanta and Kinney is on tour. However, the sweet songstress claims that she brings a keepsake from the zombie drama whenever she travels.
"I'm not as much of a collector as everyone else," she said. "(But) I have this turtle shell Norman gave me that I take everywhere."
