While neither party has confirmed nor denied the speculation, the pair seemed to fuel the frenzy when they stepped out alongside each other once again on February 24.
The actor and art director were pictured looking cozy as they took a stroll through Beverly Hills. They had their arms wrapped around each other's waists, and Pedro was photographed leaning in and resting his chin on Rafael's shoulders.
The pair were later spotted sitting side by side at a screening of Wuthering Heights, starring Jacob Elordi and Margot Robbie, where they appeared deep in conversation throughout the film.
