Stars in his eyes? Kate Hudson and J.J. Watt had an adorable outing on Monday, April 11 — that everyone in the world had a chance to watch. The Mother’s Day star documented the pair’s dinner ‘date’ via Snapchat.
Hudson, 36, went back and forth between herself and Watt, 27, while using the Snapchat stars filter on her phone. The two shared a particularly flirty exchange when the stars wouldn’t appear when Watt appeared on the screen.
“JJ don’t get no stars…? This is not right,” Hudson captioned one photo. “Snapchat … give him some stars!”
Watt then aired his star-less frustration in several videos filmed by the actress. “I’m not worthy of the stars! Damn it Snapchat, give me the stars. Just give me them!” he teased. “You gotta be kidding me.”
He added of Hudson: “Apparently the stars belong to the hottest one on the date.”
The next day, Hudson joked about the night out while spending time with her son Ryder, 12. “How does it feel that mommy got to sit next to J.J. Watt at dinner?” she said, laughing.
If romance blossoms, this will be Hudson’s first relationship following her brief fling with Nick Jonas. Us Weekly confirmed in September 2015 that the pair were hooking up. Watt, meanwhile, was rumored to be dating UFC fighter Paige VanZant.
“I think J.J. would make such a great catch for anybody, because he is a true down-home person who has such a good heart,” Watt’s mom, Connie Watt, told Entertainment Tonight back in October. “What you see is what you get with J.J.”
