Dakota Johnson and her boyfriend, Role Model (real name Tucker Pillsbury), were spotted sharing a kiss during a weekend outing in Los Angeles, keeping things effortlessly low-key with their date-night style.

For the outing, the actress wore an olive green ruffled top paired with matching trousers, adding a preppy touch with a sweater draped over her shoulders. Dakota, 36, completed the look with black shoes and a burgundy shoulder bag.

Role Model, 28, kept it casual in a navy blue T-shirt, jeans, and a camo cap, paired with black shoes. The two were photographed earlier in the day saying goodbye with a kiss, before reuniting later that night and showing subtle PDA—Dakota wrapping her arms around him from behind as they laughed, walked, and held hands.

Dakota Johnson And Role Model Pack On The PDA

Just two days later, the couple stepped out again for a coffee run on Easter Sunday, this time coordinating their looks in white tops. Dakota wore a semi-sheer short-sleeve blouse with jeans and ballet flats, while Role Model opted for a white button-down shirt with black pants, loafers, and a cap with sunglasses.

Fans online were quick to show their support for the relationship, gushing over how happy the pair looked together.

“I feel like they have the same sense of humor. I like it,” one person commented on Instagram. Another wrote, “I’m loving this couple! It seems so random, like I need to know how they met.”

“I think this is the happiest I’ve seen her,” one fan added, while another shared, “He seems very happy, which is understandable given that he's dating one of Hollywood's most beautiful, elegant, and intelligent actresses. He's lucky.”

“Beautiful couple, the two of them together,” another user commented.

Dakota Johnson And Role Model Still Going Strong

Johnson and the singer have been romantically linked since December 2025, following her high-profile split from Coldplay singer Chris Martin. The Madame Web star and Martin ended their eight-year on-and-off relationship in June 2025.

While Chris was rumored to be dating Sophie Turner, Dakota and Pillsbury were spotted in December “huddled up” and “cuddled up” during a candlelit dinner with friends in LA.

Over the following months, the couple was seen on dinner dates, at New Year’s Eve parties, and even at a Paul McCartney concert together.

The relationship also seems to have her family’s blessing—her mom Melanie Griffith publicly expressed her approval, calling Role Model “fabulous” when asked by photographers.
