Are Kelsey Merritt, Chace Crawford a thing?

Chace Crawford and Kelsey Merritt appeared to confirm dating rumors after being spotted sharing a kiss during a shopping outing in New York City this April.

The Gossip Girl alum and the Filipino-American supermodel were seen browsing at fashion label Khaite, with Merritt sporting a laid-back look: a white tee, jeans, bomber jacket, black heels, and a Birkin bag. Crawford matched the casual vibe in jeans, a gray cardigan, and a black baseball cap.

Merritt made history as the first Filipino model to walk the runway for the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show and has been associated with global fashion figures like Heart Evangelista and Jennifer Lopez. She is currently signed with top agencies, including Supreme, Women Management Milan, Wilhelmina, and Nomad.

Crawford rose to fame as Nate Archibald on Gossip Girl (2007–2012), where he starred alongside Blake Lively, Leighton Meester, Penn Badgley, and Ed Westwick.
