Meester and Brody did a good job at hiding their relationship, but their own fans were quick to realize the two were more than the friends they claimed to be. After being spotted at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art together, the pair had no choice but to admit they were an item.
The private couple also traveled to Bangkok together earlier this year and were seen by many at the Thai city’s Siam Kempinski Hotel while there.
Meester recently said in an interview that while she’s not been in a lot of relationships, she has been in love.
“There’s an inexplicable chemistry,” she gushed. “I’ve never fallen in love right off the bat, I get scared to say I love you too soon because it means so much.”
