A summer romance appears to be blossoming for Outlander star Sam Heughan!
On Wednesday, May 29, the Outlander star, 44, was spotted strolling through the streets of London with an unidentified woman.
The pair held hands and matched in all-black ensembles as they walked side by side in the city’s Soho neighborhood together.
Reps for Heughan did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.
The Scottish actor has not publicly confirmed any relationships or announced that he is dating someone, but he has previously said he is “still looking” for the one.
In May 2023, while (fittingly) promoting his romantic comedy Love Again, Heughan told PEOPLE he hoped love was on the horizon — and revealed he is a “romantic at heart.”
When asked about the craziest thing he’s done in pursuit of love, the actor said, “I’ve done all of the gift-giving and turning up when least expected, but, so far, I’m still looking.”
And his ongoing search is certainly not the result of a shortage of admirers, as the actor — who appears as 18th-century Scottish warrior Jamie Fraser in Outlander — has had fans in a frenzy since the hit Starz series premiered a decade ago.
The star said he has received marriage proposals, been ambushed while dining out — and even received intimate autograph requests, telling PEOPLE he’s “signed a few body parts” over the years.
But the fan love does not go unappreciated, Heughan assured. “Our fans have been so supportive for 10 years now,” he said at the time, adding, “It’s always nice to meet people. They’re great.”
The star also opened up about his love life while appearing on The Drew Barrymore Show in 2022, when host Barrymore asked the actor — on behalf of his fans — if he was single.
At the time, Heughan — who had been spotted kissing model Monika Clarke days earlier — denied putting romance on the back burner to prioritize his career. “The job is so all-encompassing and we spend so much time on set and at work,” he said at the time. “But I’m open to something.”
“I’m not sure what I’m saying I’m open for, but I’m open,” he added.
