Laura Harrier is setting the record straight on any dating speculation.
The Spider-Man: Homecoming star posted on TikTok in a now-deleted video, where she spoke about Shameik Moore sharing a video of the two of them.
Moore, who voiced the character of Miles Morales in Spiderman: Into The Spider-Verse, had recently shared an old video of the two of them on X, captioning it “coming soon.”
Fans began to speculate and fuel dating rumours between the two of them. Harrier, meanwhile, is engaged to creative consultant Sam Jarou.
Harrier posted a video on Friday, December 20, where she spoke candidly to the camera about her thoughts on Moore posting the video, and about any subsequent romance rumors.
“I keep seeing all these videos that I’m being tagged in with another actor, and people speculating what that is,” said Harrier. “It’s really annoying me because I’m literally engaged, and that’s important to me.”
Harrier continued with her message, saying, “I’m in Hollywood, I get it. People do PR stunts, whatever. People like to get attention.” She also described her first reaction to seeing Moore’s post.
“When he first posted that video, a friend sent it to me and was like, ‘Did you know he put this up?’ And I was like, no,” she explained. “That was taken a year ago at a party when somebody asked us to take photos together and I guess somebody was filming it. Not sure why you would post that now.”
She said that had then texted Moore, requesting that he take down the video. She had told him that she didn’t like the “insinuation that something’s going on between us, if that was your intention.”
In Harrier’s post, she spoke about the fact that the video was still online.
“It’s still up, which is f—ing weird,” Harrier said. “You’re a f—ing weirdo! I’m sorry, you’re a f—ing weirdo. And I’m f—ing annoyed. So, I just wanted to say something because I don’t like that. I don’t like that.”
Moore has since deleted the post, and posted an apology video on X, calling it a “misunderstanding.”
“This is all a misunderstanding, unfortunately, it’s public,” Moore explained in a video he shared via X on Friday. . “It’s really the fan-fiction, it’s the commentary, that’s what’s f*cking weird. I mean no harm. I have no ill intent. You know it’s about art for me, the video had the aesthetic of the song. That’s it, it wasn’t insinuating a relationship. I apologize for the misunderstanding, I do.”
