Taylor Russell fuels Harry Styles romance speculation as she attends gig in Vienna

Taylor Russell has fuelled speculation she’s dating Harry Styles after she was spotted at his Love on Tour concert in Vienna on Saturday.

The actress, 28, was previously spotted with the As It Was hitmaker in London last month and now, new photos obtained by TMZ show the screen star in a “VIP tent” alongside a crew member.

As reported by the outlet, the Canada-born star was reportedly seen dancing for the “entirety” of Styles’ show.

The report comes as Russell was spotted out in the Austrian capital before his concert standing next to man believed to be Styles in a viral Twitter photo.

Then on Sunday, a short video shared by social media account Pop Base showed the two stars out and about in the city.

In June, the pair first sparked dating speculation when they were spotted leaving a museum in London together, and were reportedly holding hands, as per TMZ. The Standard has contacted Harry Styles and Taylor Russell’s representatives for comment.

It is not known when they first crossed paths, although they both attended the 79th Venice International Film Festival last September to promote their respective films.

Styles previously dated Olivia Wilde, who he met on set of Don’t Worry Darling, from January 2021 until their split in November 2022.

Meanwhile, Russell won critical acclaim for her performance in Bones And All alongside Timothee Chalamet and a received the nomination for Best Lead Performance at the Independent Spirit Awards.

The speculation comes after Styles was hit in the face by a thrown object as he performed on stage in Vienna.

Videos shared online from the gig at the Ernst Happel Stadium in Austria on Saturday showed the pop megastar walking across the stage before an item flies through the air and strikes him near his eye.

After being struck, he can be seen wincing in pain before bending over while clutching his face in his hands.

Myriam, a fan from Germany who was at the Vienna show, said the Watermelon Sugar singer was hit after he sang Sign Of The Times, the first song of the encore.

She said: “He still kept touching his face a lot. It looked like it hurt very much. It seems like he had to collect himself and then he turned back to us and kept performing.”

The fan added that it “shook” her a lot witnessing the incident happen a few metres away from her, adding: “I want this never to happen to him again. As it’s happened too many times already now.”

Styles has previously been affected by fans throwing items on stage and last month he was hit in the face by a bunch of flowers during his gig in Cardiff.
