Drew Starkey has become the center of online speculation after social media users linked him to unverified rumors surrounding Margaret Qualley and her husband, music producer Jack Antonoff. The speculation began when fans noticed Antonoff attended Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding celebration at Madison Square Garden on July 3 with his sister, Rachel Antonoff, rather than Qualley.
Initial Claims and Counterpoints
Some social media users initially claimed the actress was unable to attend because she was filming King Snake in Arkansas, although others pointed out production had already concluded. The rumors gained momentum after celebrity gossip account DeuxMoi reportedly shared an unverified claim that Qualley had been seen at a restaurant in Woodstock, New York, on July 2.
Neither Qualley nor Antonoff has commented publicly on the speculation, but online discussions expanded to suggest the actress had been linked to a co-star. Fans subsequently identified that co-star as Drew Starkey, as photographs of the pair hanging out together began to surface online.
Evidence and Fan Reactions
Images showing the actors at a basketball game and by a swimming pool fueled discussion, despite no evidence confirming any romantic relationship. One social media user posted, "That's exactly what I thought because Drew took Margaret to watch a basketball game at a school where her dad is the team's coach. She brought her dog, and Drew's brother was there too. They also went to a swimming pool."
Some fans questioned the speculation, with one writing, "Isn't he dating Odessa?" Others defended Starkey, arguing the photographs were taken during production and did not indicate a relationship. One social media user wrote, "Guys, it's way past time for y'all to stop shoving Drew into every damn news story out there. Those photos are from back when they filmed King Snake, and after that, they haven't been spotted together anymore. I dunno, go find something better to do."
Starkey's Previous Links
Starkey has previously been linked by fans to actress Odessa A'Zion after the pair met while filming Hellraiser. Although the two have appeared together at public events, neither has confirmed their relationship. As of now, Starkey, Qualley, and Antonoff have not addressed the online rumors.
