This Vanity Fair article hints that Harry Styles and Emily Ratajkowski are in an exclusive relationship after photos of the two kissing surface. Is this true, has anyone legitimately confirmed this?

This statement is simply a rumor. They has been a lot of speculation that Harry Styles and Emily Ratajkowski are dating after they were spotted kissing out in public. However, neither Harry Styles or Emily Ratajkowski have confirmed the rumor themselves. 

Numerous articles address this situation. For example, People magazine wrote, " The 'are they or aren't they' couple has been making headlines since they were spotted packing on the PDA in Tokyo last month. In photos and videos obtained by the Daily Mail, the pair looks super cozy, passionately kissing on the streets in Japan. A source also recently told PEOPLE that the two were 'friendly' before this outing".

People magazine address that the two dating is just a rumor for now, but there is a lot of evidence that may suggest that the rumors are true. However, to know for sure we would need either Style, Ratajkowski, or a member of their team to confirm.

According to these two other news sites, it appears that Harry Styles and Emily Ratajkowski have been dating secretly for two months. They appeared kissing in Tokyo. Harry was there for his Love On Tour series but it is unknown why Emily was there unless it was for Harry. It was reported at the end of February that Harry Styles had moved on from his last relationship with Olivia Wilde which ended in November and had found someone new, though her identity was never revealed.

Also on March 9th in an interview with Emily, she revealed that she had been seeing someone for 4 weeks though she never said a name. It seems that the two were seeing each other for awhile.

While Emily had appeared to confirm her relationship with Eric Andre on Valentine's Day in February, no new press has been released regarding their relationship. There has also been no recent press about Harry and Emily since Tokyo so it is possible that they have already ended things as well. Since the two relationships are so close together it seems unlikely that she was dating them both at the same time, unless one of them was only a PR stunt.

According to InStyle, the relationship between Harry Styles and Emily Ratajkowsi is not new. Although there is a "shocking video of Emily Ratajkowski and Harry Styles making out in Japan", neither of the two has announced that they are dating. 

Two weeks before this video was released, Ratajkowski was on a podcast, "Going Mental with Eileen Kelly", where she said "I just started dating someone that I think I like, so that is different. I was like, 'He's kind of great." She did not name anyone in particular but after seeing the video, it is easy to speculate the two are dating. These two pieces of information paired together are misleading, especially since there isn't anything official linking the two. There also hasn't been any additional media since the video.

This is simply a rumor that is going around. While the two have been coughing making out, they are not labeling it as a relationship. So in some ways they are together, but they are not dating. Seventeen magazine stated:  "The Harry's House singer is reportedly "thrilled" about "hooking up" with EmRata although things may not go too far between them. The supermodel is newly single following her divorce from Sebastian Bear-McClard. "Emily isn't looking for anything serious," the source added. "She's just trying to live her best single life and have fun."
