Is it a Bravo match made in EDM heaven?
A spy spotted “Summer House” star Kyle Cooke and “Next Gen NYC” breakout Ava Dash (and the daughter of hip hop mogul Damon Dash and designer Rachel Roy) looking close in the VIP section at the Palm Tree Music Festival on the Shinnecock Nation grounds in Southampton this weekend — despite Cooke previously denying there was anything romantic between them.
“They were hanging out at a table in the VIP section for sponsor Celsius,” a spy tells us. “It seemed like something romantic was going on from the way they looked at each other. There was definitely a vibe that they were into each other.”
Another source tells us they witnessed the reality stars locking lips.
“They were kissing openly,” says the spy.
An insider tells us the pair aren’t exactly dating, but they are in the beginning stages of seeing each other.
“It’s very new,” says the source. “They are talking and hanging out.”
Another source close to Cooke insists they are not dating.
Cooke, 43, denied he and Dash, 26, were dating in March following reports that they were holding hands at a dinner.
“I am not [dating Dash],” he told Andy Cohen. “No, that was a very friendly dinner.”
Continuing, “We were at a family dinner doing a family blessing, holding hands, so I was holding her [hand].”
Dash is the daughter of Damon Dash and fashion designer Rachel Roy.
Cooke was previously married to Amanda Batula.
Kygo, The Chainsmokers, Gryffin and It’s Murph played the festival. Cooke was on the scene with his co-star Carl Radke and pals.
