Emma Roberts is discussing her approach to dating in Hollywood. In an interview with Flaunt magazine published on Tuesday, July 2, Roberts revealed that she is currently in a relationship with someone “entertainment-industry adjacent,” as the outlet described, but not an actor.
Reflecting on her past experiences, Roberts, 33, said, “One day the veil was lifted and I didn’t want to date actors anymore. It’s hard, I think, for two actors to be together. I’m trying to think if I’ve seen it done successfully.”
Roberts has previously dated Evan Peters from American Horror Story and Garrett Hedlund from Tron: Legacy. She shares a 3-year-old son, Rhodes, with Hedlund.
She added, “Also, the actors I’ve been with border on method actors, and that is something that I think is extremely difficult to be in a relationship with — at least for me, especially the characters that they were playing.”
Roberts chose not to disclose much about her new partner other than stating he is not “online.” She advised, “If you want to send a girl crazy, don’t have Instagram.”
In addition, Roberts discussed her collaboration with Kim Kardashian, 43, on American Horror Story: Delicate.
She praised Kardashian, noting that the reality TV star and SKIMS founder has become a great friend.
The two are set to work together again on a new TV series called Calabasas, which they will both executive produce.
“Kim is an icon. I literally don’t know how she does it. Businesswoman-turned-producer-turned-actress, and let me tell you, one of the most prepared actresses I’ve ever worked with,” Roberts said.
“She’s also been a great friend. Anytime I text her, she responds right away. Just seeing her inspires me. I’m like, ‘How do you do all of that and also look perfect?’”
Roberts had previously hinted about her and Kardashian’s new show on Thursday, June 27, during an appearance on SiriusXM’s The Spotlight With Jessica Shaw.
“Kim and I are executive producing a show for Netflix called Calabasas,” Roberts said. “We have the amazing Marlene King, who did Pretty Little Liars, as our showrunner.
I’m obsessed with her and Pretty Little Liars. I remember seeing that show and thinking, ‘I wish I was on that show.’ It was just so cool and so fun.”
“I mean, there’s not really much I can share other than I just feel like I want, you know, the next The O.C., and I think that if we do this right, it’ll be a little The O.C., a little Pretty Little Liars,” Roberts teased about the show’s tone. “Kim and I are just two Calabasas girls going back to our roots.”
