Contrary to all the photographic evidence of courtside basketball games and restaurant facades, Kate Beckinsale claims that she's never been on a date. So, it may be safe to assume that those meet-ups with Pete Davidson were simply casual friend hangs or two sports enthusiasts getting meeting up — not dates. In an interview with Extra, Beckinsale said that she hated the idea of dating and getting to know someone she's never met before and watching as they eat a meal.

"Do you know I've really never been on a date? ... I don't think I've ever been on of those, like, 'Oh, a friend has set me up and I'm meeting a total stranger.' I've never done that. I just can't think of anything I'd hate more than sitting in front of somebody I don't know, that chances are I won't like, and then have to sit and watch them eat food."

RELATED: Are Kate Beckinsale and Goody Grace Over?

According to Marie Claire, Beckinsale was married to Underworld director Len Wiseman from 2004 and 2019. She shares Lily Mo, her 22-year-old daughter, with ex Michael Sheen. More recently, however, she's had high-profile relationships with Jack Whitehall (non-date at a karaoke bar), Pete Davidson, and Goody Grace (who also appeared beside Beckinsale at a basketball game that was 100% also not a date). It's safe to say that they weren't "dating" by Beckinsale standards and unless she's hiding something, she's not married or pregnant. Yet.
