Daniel Radcliffe News Update 2014: After nearly two years of reported dating, the "Harry Potter" icon was photographed for only the second time alongside his girlfriend, Erin Darke, looking relaxed and happy, Yahoo Celebrity reported.
According to the report, Radcliffe first met the Michigan native in October 2012 when they were shooting the drama, "Kill Your Darlings." He played as poet Alan Ginsberg and she played Gwendolyn. It's unclear, however, whether they became an exclusive item right away, or if it took some time.
The duo had was photographed together seven months after the pair looked cozy during a dinner in honor of the movie at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2013. Daniel was snapped jumping into a car with Erin outside the Noel Coward theater in London after his performance of "The Cripple of Inishmann." At the time, they both seemed far more focused on avoiding the cameras than greeting each other. The photos didn't reveal much. In other words, the pics were suggestive, but hardly conclusive.
Shortly after those photos surfaced, however, evidence began to build that they were, in fact, an item. While appearing on "What What Happens: Live," the notoriously private Radcliffe opened up to Andy Cohen.
"Yes, I am dating someone. And my type is ... the type I keep private. My type is intelligent," the star admitted. He did also confirm that his new lady friend was a bit older than him, but didn't name her. Darke is reportedly about five years senior to Radcliffe and hasn't commented publicly on their relationship yet.
On October 2013, Radcliffe first reveals that he is dating a woman older than him. The New York Times Magazine, which features Daniel on their cover this week, says it's his "Kill Your Darlings" co-star, Erin Darke, to whom he's been linked for almost a year at that time.
Times journalist Susan Dominus writes, "He had already asked the young woman in wardrobe to take a photograph of him in the costume, so he could send it to his girlfriend, Erin Darke, an actress he met on the set of 'Kill Your Darlings.' 'She is going to find me sooo attractive in this,' he said."
Daniel and Erin paid a visit to Myers of Keswick in the West Village to pick up supplies for a spring picnic. After stopping by the British grocery store, the usually camera-shy couple headed over to a park on the Hudson River in time to take in a glowing sunset. Erin rocked a floral-print maxi dress for the romantic occasion, while Daniel was clad in comfy jeans and a t-shirt.
"Though this is technically the second time they've been snapped together, it's the first time we've seen them simply hanging out, looking affectionate and comfortable with each other. We have to say, based Erin's beaming smile, it seems there's magic in the air, indeed," Elizabeth Durand Streisand, Yahoo Celebrity reporter said.
