The TV actor who’s been labelled Hollywood’s biggest womaniser

He’s one of the hottest men on our screens but this actor clearly doesn’t want to settle down anytime soon

He’s been on a non-stop climb to the top of the Hollywood food chain for two years now, but while this award-winning actor has certainly won friends and influenced people along the way, he’s also left a wee bit of mess and mayhem in his wake… especially when it comes to his chaotic dating life.

Becoming something of a cautionary tale for what can happen to fairly average blokes once they taste some success and suddenly find women falling at their feet, the actor broke up with his long-time love shortly after hitting the big time. The former teenage sweethearts, who share two young children, split in May 2023 – with insiders reporting at the time that his intense schedule had made things “difficult” for the relationship.

But while Jeremy Allen White – aka The Bear’s Chef Carmen “Carmy” Berzatto – has focused primarily on keeping things on an even keel for their children, it seems he’s not wasted any time in welcoming new love into his life.

In less than 18 months since wife-of-three-years Addison Timlin filed for divorce, Jeremy has apparently leapfrogged into three different relationships – with fans only getting wind that he’d split from singer girlfriend Rosalía, after he was recently spotting kissing his co-star Molly Gordon, 28, in public.

But while Jeremy seems to have a devil-may-care approach to flaunting his love life, it seems his Don Juan tendencies may be catching up with him and, potentially, harming his newfound reputation as Hollywood’s golden boy. After all, in a town that’s full of lotharios and heartbreakers, being named the biggest womaniser of the bunch is not a title that most would covet – and at the rate that Jeremy’s going, he’ll have a Michelin star for bad boy behaviour before the next season of The Bear hits our TV screens.

“The past year has seen Jeremy explode in popularity,” says an insider close to the 33 year old, who – before his Emmy-winning turn as Carmy – was best known for starring in the US version of the comedy-drama Shameless. “He’s gone from being a popular actor to this huge sex symbol, and a lot of people think the attention has gone to his head. In fairness, the way women throw themselves at him, it’s got to be tough keeping his feet on the ground. He’s very much the man of the moment in Hollywood – how could his ego not be inflated? When he was married, he always talked about how his wife helped to keep him grounded, and said that he probably would spin out of control if it weren’t for her and the responsibility of being a dad. Now, his star has climbed even higher, and – although he is a devoted dad – he doesn’t have the support of Addison in his corner anymore. A lot of people worry that he’s floundering without that stability.”

It’s certainly been an about-turn – in a short space of time – for someone who seemed to be a devoted, one-woman man when he first hit the big leagues in The Bear. After meeting fellow actor Addison when they were both 17 on the set of the mystery thriller Afterschool, the pair stayed friends until taking their romance to the next level in 2013. Over the next decade, they were inseparable, and Jeremy duly paid tribute to his wife – whom he married in 2019 – on Instagram, telling her soon after The Bear premiered, “I love you. Thank you for keeping my head right when things get wobbly. And thanks for always listening.” 

But a year later, in May 2023, Addison, 33, filed for divorce, with insiders reporting they’d actually been estranged for months. Both were said to be focusing their priorities on their children, but there seemed to be some drama and pain behind the scenes as – in October of that year – it was revealed that Jeremy had agreed to several stipulations in his custody agreement with Addison over their kids. As per their arrangement, he agreed to daily alcohol testing, as well as to attending at least two Alcoholics Anonymous meetings per week, in addition to having other therapy. This suggested that, as the actor himself hinted, some things had got concerningly “wobbly” in his private life. 

Still, it’s his voracious dating that has caused the most concern in Hollywood circles. A few months after officially splitting from Addison, Jeremy was linked to model Ashley Moore, 31, whom he was seen passionately kissing in Los Angeles. But their summer fling soon fizzled, as he was then seen with singer Rosalía, 32, in October 2023. The couple were regularly spotted packing on the PDAs in public and were most recently pictured together in July 2024, while attending an event for The Bear. For all intents and purposes, fans had assumed they were still together – up until last week, when Jeremy was snapped locking lips with Molly, who plays the object of Jeremy’s character Carmy’s affection in seasons two and three of The Bear.

Now, sources are saying that the actor is insatiable – and while there’s no evidence that he’s cheated on any of his former paramours, the speed at which he moves from one to the next has led many to duly label him a bad boy. As our source explains, the fact that he’s now hooking up with a co-star – potentially leading to more drama when the cameras stop rolling – is causing a whole lot of anxiety on set. 

“One thing Jeremy can’t deny is that he’s been taking full advantage of his celebrity status when it comes to his love life,” we’re told. “It’s barely been a year since he and Addison broke up, and he’s since been with Ashley, then Rosalía, without missing a beat. Now it’s Rosalía’s turn to be yesterday’s news and he’s moved on with Molly. The risk is that he and Molly work together, so it’s going to get very complicated. Everybody’s warned him not go there with her, but he’s got the attention span of a gnat when it comes to beautiful women. He can’t seem to help himself, and he’s now insisting that this time it’s the real deal. It has everyone rolling his eyes at what a womaniser he’s become.”

Here’s hoping the actor takes stock of what he’s got and eats some humble pie sooner rather than later. After all, there’s only so many times someone can hear “Yes, chef!” before it goes to their heads for good.
