Kaia Gerber, Austin Butler can’t keep their hands off each other at Time100 Gala

The perfect time for PDA.

Kaia Gerber and Austin Butler couldn’t keep their hands off each other as they walked the red carpet at the 2023 Time100 Gala in New York City on Wednesday.

The “Elvis” actor, 31, and the model, 21, arrived at the annual event together, proceeding to flaunt their love in front of cameras.

Gerber kept her arm lovingly wrapped around her blond-haired beau, with Butler’s hand at the small of her back.

In one sweet snap, the lovebirds looked intimately into each other’s eyes with big smiles, getting so close their noses nearly touched.

Meanwhile, Butler went the classic route in a black double-breasted tuxedo and black tie.

Gerber supported the “Carrie Diaries” alum’s as he celebrated being named one of Time Magazine’s most influential people following his breakout role in the Baz Luhrmann-directed biopic about the King of Rock and Roll.

In the outlet’s special issue earlier this month, Angela Bassett praised “all the work” Butler put into his performance.

“A lot goes into an actor’s finding their way into an icon, not pretending to be them but offering a perspective on the artist as we perform slices of their story,” the actress gushed of his “brilliantly nuanced” portrayal. “You walk away from that set forever changed.”

Butler has received high praise for the role, earning an Oscar nomination as well as a Golden Globe win.

At the latter star-studded award ceremony, Gerber attended and was unafraid of showing PDA with her partner.

In January, Gerber and Butler went viral for making out backstage at the Golden Globes after he took home the trophy. They were also spotted cuddling at a Golden Globes pre-party.

While Gerber didn’t attend the Oscars ceremony in March, she went to the starry Vanity Fair after-party with her man.

His Oscars loss to Brendan Fraser didn’t stop the duo from enjoying a romantic getaway in Mexico later that same month after a whirlwind awards show season.

Page Six confirmed in January 2022 that Butler and Gerber were dating, and the couple made their red carpet debut at the Met Gala less than four months later.

From there, the duo continued to show their love, making headlines for a passionate kiss at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival last May.

The “American Horror Story” actress previously dated Jacob Elordi for a year before breaking up in November 2021. She was also briefly linked to Pete Davidson in 2020.

Meanwhile, Butler was in a long-term relationship with Vanessa Hudgens for nearly a decade before ultimately calling things off in January 2020. He then rebounded and had a fling with Lily-Rose Depp in 2021.
