When Us spoke to Posey about their Halloween outing at the Noods Before Dark party, he said: “Yeah, it was a lot of fun. She was real scared. Yeah, I’m a big guy. I can protect her. I got scared a couple times. It’s fun to play into it.”

“It’s fresh. It’s so fresh,” Posey, 25, told Us of his new relationship at Variety‘s Power of Young Hollywood event back in August. “I’m happy.”

 

“I really admire her,” he added. “I think she’s extremely talented and a great person. I’m inspired by her a lot and she intimidates me sometimes, which I’m not really used to. I’m nervous right now talking about it. She’s beautiful, really cool, has a lot of my same interests. Yeah, I could go on about that, too.”
