Matt LeBlanc made a rare public appearance in Santa Monica, California, where he was photographed leaving dinner with a yoga instructor known professionally as Chaz.
The 59-year-old Friends alum and his companion dined at Giorgio Baldi on Tuesday, August 4th, before walking toward the same parked SUV.
Their evening immediately prompted questions about whether LeBlanc may be dating again. Neither LeBlanc nor Chaz has described the outing as romantic or publicly explained their relationship.
LeBlanc and Chaz Left Giorgio Baldi Together
LeBlanc kept a low profile for the nighttime outing in a black button-up shirt, jeans and a matching baseball cap. Chaz wore a fitted red dress with an asymmetrical neckline and closed-toe black heels.
Photographs published in Page Six’s report showed LeBlanc walking several steps ahead of Chaz as they left the celebrity-favorite Italian restaurant. The pair then approached a parked SUV together. Page Six described the evening as a possible dinner date but acknowledged that LeBlanc and Chaz could simply be friends.
