What Ayo Edebiri and Jeremy Allen White said about SydCarmy

The characters of Ayo Edebiri and Jeremy Allen White on The bear may not have a romantic storyline, but the cast still gives fans plenty of off-screen moments to swoon over. On Tuesday night, the duo attended the Los Angeles premiere of the show’s third season, with Edebiri wearing a floral Loewe dress and White wearing a beige suit. For reasons only they can explain, the two took a minute to play dice on the red carpet — and seemed to be having a great time.

Since the show’s first season, Edebiri and White’s palpable on-screen chemistry has led fans to hope that their characters, Sydney and Carmy, would have some sort of romance — though the actors confirmed this week that it’s not in the cards. When asked if there would be a romantic storyline at a press conference Monday, Edebiri and White both said “no.” White added, “There’s been no discussion in the theaters about romantic implications” between Carmy and Sydney.

Meanwhile, IRL, a video of White rubbing Edebiri’s back during a baseball game at Chicago’s Wrigley Field in May went viral, leading to speculation that the actors were dating. But White and Edebiri – who have spoken fondly of each other in various interviews – have made it clear they are just good friends. White said Vanity Fair last month, he and Edebiri were “having fun in life, on and off camera.” He added: “I hope that kind of thing comes through on camera between Carm and Syd.” We will know tomorrow when The bearIt is the new season is coming to Hulu.
