Shayk was spotted walking with Vito Schnabel recently, and sources close to them confirmed to Page Six that they are hanging out. The insider was not sure if the model is in a romantic relationship with him but added that the pandemic has forced people to pair up as though they were heading for Noah’s Ark.
Another source said that Shayk and Schnabel are not dating. The two of them have been “friends for a really long time,” and Schnabel lives close to the model’s apartment in West Village. The long friendship and the proximity of their houses may have made it easier for them to hang out during the lockdown.
Although the two celebrities appear to be just friends, an insider told Us Weekly that the art dealer has always been interested in Shayk. The fact that they have been spotted hanging out together on more than one occasion suggests that they may be dating.
According to an insider, Schnabel is a “very social person who likes to go out and have fun.” He also has a history of dating celebrities, which includes Demi Moore, Amber Heard, and Heidi Klum.
Now that both the celebrities are single, they may start dating. A source told E! News that Schnabel is a “big flirt” and Shayk is his type. The insider also added that the model too likes the attention and she has been spending a lot of time with the art dealer.
When Shayk’s daughter is with Cooper, she reportedly goes over to Schnabel’s house. According to an insider, she likes to connect with people she is comfortable with. Due to the quarantine, the model has reportedly been spending all day and evening with the art dealer.
