Now that these hand-holding photos have the internet freaking out, everyone is naturally trying to break down the ins and outs of the rumored relationship. A source tells E! News that the relationship is “a casual thing” since Davidson and Beckinsale live across the country from one another (he in New York, she in Los Angeles). The source also says that Beckinsale “loves all the laughs she has with him.” I have to admit, that’s really sweet.

For anyone who was still uncertain about whether this relationship was happening, all doubt flew out the window when Davidson and Beckinsale were spotted making out at a Rangers game. The photos are… well, a lot, to put it lightly. (Antoni Porowski, who was sitting next to the couple, had a distressed facial expression that basically sums it up.) The two were all over each other and super cuddly, and they weren’t afraid to show off their love to the world.

Well, it looks like Davidson and Beckinsale are as happy as ever. Despite harsh words from Beckinsale’s ex Matt Rife, who urged Davidson to "run" from the relationship, the couple is enjoying every moment of their new romance. More power to them — and hey, their relationship is even Ariana-approved! For now at least, it looks like this hot new duo is here to stay.
