Michael B. Jordan and RAYE Spark Romance Rumors After Six Flags Outing as Source Says They ‘Really Like Each Other’

Michael B. Jordan and RAYE are fueling new romance speculation after being spotted together at Six Flags Magic Mountain near Los Angeles.

The Creed actor, 39, and the British singer, 28, were seen enjoying rides together at the amusement park on Friday, Aug. 7, prompting fans to wonder whether the outing was more than just friendly.

According to a source who spoke with PEOPLE, the Six Flags visit was not their first time spending time together.

“Michael and RAYE have been on a couple dinner dates before this,” the source said.

The source described the connection as still very new but added that the two appear to genuinely enjoy each other’s company.

“Things are new between them, but they really like each other,” the source said. “RAYE tells friends that Michael is her type and that he is warm and kind.”

However, another source offered a different account, saying that Jordan and RAYE are “just friends” and that they visited Six Flags as part of a larger group.

Neither Jordan nor RAYE has publicly confirmed that they are dating.

Representatives for both stars have not yet responded to PEOPLE’s request for comment.

Fans Spot Jordan and RAYE Together at Six Flags

The dating rumors began after photos and videos from the amusement park circulated on social media.

In one image shared on X, Jordan and RAYE — whose birth name is Rachel Keen — could be seen seated next to each other on a roller coaster.

RAYE appeared to be looking toward Jordan as the two spoke before the ride.

A separate fan video posted on TikTok showed the pair sitting together on another attraction just before it launched.

Someone off-camera could be heard encouraging riders to keep their hands raised and their eyes open.

RAYE enthusiastically lifted her hands into the air before appearing to nudge Jordan and encourage him to do the same.

The playful moment quickly attracted attention online, particularly because both stars have generally kept their romantic lives relatively private.

While the images show Jordan and RAYE spending time together, they do not confirm the nature of their relationship.

The conflicting accounts from sources have only added to the speculation.

Jordan Has Kept His Love Life Mostly Private

Jordan has long been reluctant to discuss his romantic life publicly.

His most recent confirmed high-profile relationship was with Lori Harvey, the daughter of television personality Steve Harvey.

Jordan and Harvey began dating in 2020 and were together for roughly a year and a half.

In June 2022, a source confirmed to PEOPLE that the two had ended their relationship.

At the time, the source said both were deeply affected by the breakup.

“Michael and Lori are both completely heartbroken,” the source said.

Since then, Jordan has largely avoided publicly confirming any serious romantic relationship.

That approach is consistent with comments he has made throughout his career about the challenges of dating while constantly being watched by fans and the media.

Jordan Previously Said Dating in Public Is ‘Tough’

In a 2018 interview with GQ, Jordan spoke candidly about how public attention complicates even the earliest stages of dating.

He explained that simply trying to get to know someone can become difficult once photos, rumors and online speculation begin.

“So now, how do you go anywhere normal, chill, just getting to know somebody that you just met, that you may not — may or may not — hit it off at all?” Jordan said.

“That part of dating is tough.”

His comments reflected a problem that has followed him throughout his rise to fame.

For most people, an early date can remain private while both individuals decide whether there is any real connection.

For a celebrity at Jordan’s level, even a casual outing can quickly become a public story.

Seven years after that interview, his position had not changed dramatically.

In a February 2025 interview with GQ, the publication noted that his love life remained one of the subjects he was least interested in discussing.

Jordan said he was not overly concerned about being in a relationship and described himself as heavily focused on work.

“I’m not tripping over it,” he said.

He explained that any future partner would need to fit naturally into the rhythm of his life and career.

“I would want somebody to fit into the flow of my life, of where I am,” he said.

For Jordan, timing appeared to be just as important as compatibility.

“And that’s timing, right?” he continued. “You can meet the right person, and be at the wrong time, and it just doesn’t work out.”

RAYE Has Also Kept Relationships Out of the Spotlight

RAYE has similarly maintained a private approach to her romantic life.

The singer has never publicly confirmed a relationship, making the recent Jordan speculation particularly notable for her fans.

She has, however, spoken publicly about what she values in a future partner.

In November, RAYE talked with PEOPLE about the qualities she would want in a husband.

She emphasized that communication would be extremely important.

“Words of affirmation is my love language,” RAYE said during Bloomingdale’s New York City holiday window unveiling in partnership with Burberry.

“So, you need to have the qualities of a good communicator. Communication is so important to me.”

Her comments provided a rare glimpse into what she considers important in a romantic relationship, even as she continued to keep her actual dating life out of public view.

Two Stars at Major Points in Their Careers

The speculation also comes as both Jordan and RAYE remain highly visible professionally.

Jordan has spent years balancing acting, producing and directing projects while remaining one of Hollywood’s most recognizable leading men.

From the Creed franchise to his wider film and television work, his schedule has frequently been intense — something that may help explain his previous comments about wanting a relationship that fits naturally into his life.

RAYE, meanwhile, has experienced a major rise in global recognition in recent years.

Her profile has expanded significantly through her music and live performances, bringing her increasing attention in both the United Kingdom and the United States.

That makes any public appearance involving the two especially likely to attract interest.

Romance or Friendship? For Now, Nothing Is Confirmed

Despite the growing speculation, there is currently no official confirmation that Michael B. Jordan and RAYE are a couple.

One source says the two have already gone on multiple dinner dates and “really like each other.”

Another insists they are simply friends who happened to be at Six Flags with a group.

Jordan and RAYE themselves have remained silent.

That leaves the exact nature of their relationship unresolved for now.

What is clear is that the amusement park outing has placed their connection firmly in the public spotlight.

For two stars known for keeping their personal lives private, even an ordinary day of roller coasters and conversation was enough to ignite widespread curiosity.

Whether the Six Flags outing was simply a friendly get-together or the beginning of something more, fans will likely be watching closely to see if Jordan and RAYE are spotted together again.
