Chase Infiniti and Tyriq Withers Are Officially a Couple

The internet's hottest question has finally been answered: rising Hollywood stars Chase Infiniti and Tyriq Withers are officially an item. After a whirlwind of joint appearances and fan theories, a source close to Infiniti confirmed on May 15, 2026, that the two are indeed dating, delighting fans and solidifying their status as a new power couple.

The confirmation arrived after months of public speculation that saw the 26-year-old Infiniti and 27-year-old Withers frequently photographed together at high-profile events. The source close to Infiniti reportedly stated that "Chase is having fun and dating," adding, "She's in a really good place and enjoying herself like any young woman." This news follows recent sightings, including a dinner date at Mamo restaurant in New York City, and an appearance in Midtown Manhattan after attending the Broadway play "Proof" on May 16, 2026.

Public interest in the pair first ignited in late 2025. Their earliest known joint appearance, captured in a selfie, dates back to the Academy Museum Gala on October 18, 2025. As awards season kicked into high gear, their presence together became more frequent, notably at W Magazine's Annual Best Performances Party at Chateau Marmont on January 10, 2026. However, it was a specific moment on February 28, 2026, that truly sent the internet into a frenzy.

Actress Kerry Washington posted a selfie at the 57th NAACP Image Awards in Pasadena, California, featuring herself, Withers, and Infiniti. This photo quickly became a catalyst for the dating rumors, with Infiniti herself later remarking on the impact, saying, "Listen, I could credit it all to Kerry Washington. She's been pulling us together."

Despite the growing public curiosity, both actors initially maintained a degree of privacy regarding their relationship status. In an interview published on March 13, 2026, Tyriq Withers described himself as "very much intimately single," adding a touch of romantic flair: "I yearn — and that is my superpower but also my biggest flaw. I am a loverboy." Just two days later, on March 15, 2026, when questioned about fans "shipping" her and Withers at the Academy Awards, Chase Infiniti reportedly "side-stepped any dating speculations with a laugh," simply stating, "So? The internet is the internet. I don't know."

Yet, their joint outings continued, fueling the ongoing narrative. Withers showed his support for Infiniti by attending the premiere of her Hulu series, "The Testaments," on March 31, 2026. The two were then spotted together in early May at the Formula 1 Grand Prix in Miami on May 2, 2026, where they were photographed visiting the Audi Revolut F1 team's garage. Reports from social media sources indicated they appeared "very cuddly and touchy" at Sexy Fish and were described as "very nice to the staff" at the rooftop pool at 1 Hotel South Beach. Just two days later, on May 4, 2026, they were photographed together at GQ's post-Met Gala party in New York, an event Infiniti notably co-hosted alongside LISA from Blackpink, Damson Idris, and Paul Anthony Kelly.

Both Infiniti and Withers are rapidly ascending in Hollywood. Chase Infiniti, born Chase Infiniti Payne on May 5, 2000, in Indianapolis, is recognized for her roles in the Apple TV+ limited series "Presumed Innocent" (2024) and the upcoming Paul Thomas Anderson epic action thriller "One Battle After Another" (2025), where she plays Willa Ferguson, the daughter of Leonardo DiCaprio's character. That role earned her nominations for an Actor Award, a BAFTA, and a Golden Globe. Infiniti also stars in Hulu's "The Testaments" (2026), a sequel series to "The Handmaid's Tale." A musical theatre graduate from Columbia College Chicago (2022), she previously worked as a kickboxing instructor and co-founded a K-pop cover dance group. Her unique name is a tribute, with "Chase" from Nicole Kidman's character in *Batman Forever* and "Infiniti" from Buzz Lightyear's catchphrase. As of December 2025, she is also a Louis Vuitton ambassador.

Tyriq Withers, born July 15, 1998, in Jacksonville, Florida, has made a name for himself with leading roles in the films "Him" (2025), notably produced by Jordan Peele's Monkeypaw Productions, and "Reminders of Him" (2026). He also appeared in "I Know What You Did Last Summer" (2025) and had a breakout role as Aaron in an episode of Donald Glover's "Atlanta" (2022). Prior to his acting career, Withers played wide receiver for Florida State University in 2017, graduating in May 2020 with degrees in Business and Marketing. He is a member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc.

The confirmation of their relationship marks a significant moment for two young stars whose careers are on an undeniable upward trajectory. As both continue to take on high-profile projects and navigate the spotlight, their confirmed romance adds another layer to their public narratives, solidifying their place in the ongoing conversation around young Hollywood's most watched figures.
