Kate Beckinsale, one of our favorite social media personalities, has been spotted with a new man, a former MTV star who is half her age.

ET reports that paparazzi caught the 43-year-old Underworld actress kissing Matt Rife, 21, outside of a lounge in West Hollywood. Rife is an actor and comedian best known for his time on the MTV improv comedy show Wild 'N Out.

The two reportedly met through a mutual friend and hit it off quickly.

"They quickly started flirting, went on their first date and it's continued since," a source told ET. "(They're) officially boyfriend and girlfriend."

One might think they would be some drama surrounding the couple due to the age gap. However, that doesn't appear to be the case.

"Getchu someone who sings the whole Grease soundtrack with you in the car. Or die alone. Those are the only options. 🎶❤️" he wrote, adding hashtags for three of the film's love songs ("Hopelessly Devoted To You," "Summer Nights" and "You're The One That I Want").
