Taylor Lautner is having a summer romance

OHMYGOSSIP — The 21-year-old actor is dating Canadian actress Marie Avgeropoulos, 27, his costar in new action movie Tracers. “They’re happy and having a fun time together,” a source told People magazine.

The costars also reportedly enjoyed a date night at a performance of Blue Man Group on July 15.

“After the show they popped downstairs to meet the cast,” a source told the New York Post. “But Marie, who’s on crutches due to a leg injury, had a tough time getting back up to leave. [Taylor] carried her up piggyback.”

Lautner recently admitted he is more “guarded” now he famous worldwide and he gets paranoid that women are only interested in him because of his wealth and status.

“I do have to be more careful. I would be lying if I said that I don’t guard myself more than I used to, but I don’t want to be too guarded,” Taylor said.

“If you have so many walls up that you can’t even make new friends or find new relationships. That would be a bummer.”

Taylor says he is still unsure as to whether or not he believes in love at first sight but he’s sure he will understand more about romance as he gets older.

“I’m still figuring that one out. I go back and forth on that,” he added.

“Sometimes I say I do and sometimes I’m not sure. I definitely think I need a few more years under my belt to fully know if I believe that or not.

“I do enjoy romance. There’s always some sort of love story in every movie, but the roles I’m working on now aren’t super-romantic so I’m excited about that. It will be different for me, after this romance saga.”
