“I have no knowledge. It would be respectful if confirmed by them, but if true, that’s the hottest couple in town,” the actor, who dated Kim till 2019, told a leading daily.

In December 2018, Harshvardhan had confirmed that he was in a relationship.

“I will say I am a very open person. There’s nothing to hide, I have never been a person to hide anything. Of course I am in a relationship, but it’s a personal space. I am a private person. And as far as the other person is concerned, I have to respect them. Barring that, where I go, whether it’s the jungles and stuff, it’s out there. I ran away from my home at a young age, have worked in a cyber café and STD booth, I don’t have anything to hide,” he told Hindustan times.

Kim and Paes relationship rumours started making rounds on social media when a restaurant-bar in Goa posted pictures of them together, enjoying a meal and also showing some PDA on the beach. Kim later posted a picture on Instagram, seemingly from the same day, and credited ‘Mr P’ for the photograph.

According to reports, this is not the first time that Leander and Kim have been spending time together. They frequent pilates studio together and even enjoy walks in the Bandra area of Mumbai. However, they maintained distance in public.
