Andrew Garfield 'packs on PDA with American actress Monica Barbaro' at Glastonbury as they're 'spotted holding hands, kissing and cuddling'
The Amazing Spider-Man star, 41, was among the celebrities who attended the star-studded festival at Worthy Farm, Somerset, last week.
And after sparking romance rumours in February this year, Andrew reportedly went public with his romance with the Top Gun: Maverick star, 35, at the music festival.
Speaking to The Sun, an onlooker at the festival told The Sun that Andrew and Monica are the 'real deal' and were seen holding hands, kissing and hugging.
The pair are said to have stayed in the luxury teepee tents for the festival and spent their time moving between the VIP area and the main farm.
'On Friday she was posing for some pictures in the VIP area and he stood quite a distance away but looked really proud,' the source said.
'By Saturday they were holding hands and kissing and cuddling. They both seemed really happy and were singing along to Gracie Abrams during her set.
MailOnline has contacted representatives for Andrew and Monica for comment.
Andrew had been single since last year, when he split from Dr Kate Tomas, who describes herself as a 'professional witch '.
Andrew and Melissa were first photographed together at W Magazine's Best Performances party in Los Angeles in January.
They were spotted together a second time after attending Bridgerton star Jonathan Bailey's performance in Richard III in London in February.
Then in May the pair enjoyed a sunny dog walk across the beach.
It comes after his ex-girlfriend Kate Thomas, 42, confirmed on social media that they had quietly split 'months ago'.
While responding to an Instagram user, Kate wrote: 'We broke up months ago but I'm sure he will be happy to know that he is loved.'
'Professional witch' Kate - whose clients include Lena Dunham and Megan Mullally - had publicly spoken about her relationship with Andrew to The Sunday Times as well as on her podcast where she denied using magic spells to seduce him.
'It's not about the magic spells or manipulation,' she said.
'It has got nothing to do with how perfect their teeth are — thank you, Reddit — or whether they conform to conventional standards of beauty.
'People that are really attractive are full of charisma because they are authentically themselves and confidently anchored in that. Magic takes time. It can't happen overnight.'
It's unclear how long two-time Oscar nominee Andrew dated Kate, but they were first pictured on a double date with Phoebe Bridgers and Bo Burnham at Zinqué Malibu back on March 31.
A source previously told US Weekly of their romance: 'Things are fairly new between Andrew and Kate, but she's down to earth and he feels very comfortable with her.
'Andrew really appreciates the fact that Kate is very different from other women he's dated. He thinks she has a great sense of humour and she's easy to talk to.'
Andrew's exes include actress Shannon Woodward, two-time Oscar winner Emma Stone, actress Susie Abromeit, singer Rita Ora, model Christine Gabel, and model Alyssa Miller.
However The Amazing Spider-Man star has previously vowed to never speak about his love life.
In 2021 he told Bustle that he actively strives to keep his private life private.
He said: 'I'm not in the public eye to a great degree because I've designed it that way for myself. For my work, I'm fine with it, but otherwise I fight for my right for a private, personal life. My right to be ordinary. My right to be a mess. My right to be sorrowful. My right to lose, to get it wrong, to be stupid, to be a person.'
He further emphasised his point during an interview with Esquire earlier this month, stating: 'I have never, and I won't ever, speak about or confirm or deny anything about my personal life with anyone, ever.'

'Don't let me turn into someone who doesn't recognise the people I love most', says Dame Joanna Lumley as she speaks out in favour of assisted dying
Dame Joanna Lumley has spoken out in support of the controversial assisted dying policy, saying she would not want to carry on if she couldn't recognize her loved ones. The actress, 79, said she supported the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, which would allow adults with less than six months to live to apply for assisted death. The bill passed a vote in the House of Commons last month, despite objections from Labour ministers and Health Secretary Wes Streeting, and will be discussed in the House of Lords in the autumn. Dame Joanna, known for starring as Patsy in the BBC comedy Absolutely Fabulous. was asked about the bill in an interview with Saga Magazine. She said: 'People are terribly anxious about it and think you may be coerced. 'But I'm saying this now, when nobody's coercing me - don't let me turn into somebody who doesn't recognize the people I love most, where I'm having a miserable time. 'When I get to that stage, when my mind is gone and I have to be fed, that won't be me any more - and I wouldn't mind saying "farewell".' TV presenter Dame Esther Rantzen has been another vocal supporter of the bill and recently urged the Lords not to block the legislation. Dame Esther, 85, has terminal cancer and is being backed by her daughter Rebecca Wilcox. The support from Dame Joanna has been welcomed by campaigner Louise Shackleton. Mrs Shackleton, 58, is currently being investigated for taking her terminally ill husband Anthony, 59, to Switzerland last December to assist his suicide, after he had suffered from motor neurone disease for six years. She told The Mirror that she is set to bury his ashes today on what would have been his 60th birthday She added: 'He would have been overwhelmed that such a huge star has spoken out. 'I would like to thank Joana on behalf of fellow campaigners for having the courage to speak out and to represent the vast majority of people who are in agreement with what she is saying but haven't got her platform. 'Hopefully there will be measured, educated and community focused progress to move this forward.' The bill did have opponents from all parties including Shadow Justice Secretary Robert Jenrick. Writing for the Daily Mail, he revealed how he helped look after his grandmother, Dorothy, as a teenage boy – and how she continued to bring joy to the family as she defied a terminal diagnosis for nearly a decade. He said the prospect of legalising assisted dying 'fills me with dread', adding: 'My Nana felt like she was a burden. I know how much she hated the indignity she felt at having to ask my Mum or us to help her with basic needs. 'People like her – and there are many such people – may consider an assisted death as another act of kindness to us. How wrong they would be. 'Our society pays little regard to end of life care. We need to do much more as a country to help the elderly, like my Nana, in their final years. 'But my experience has taught me that there can be dignity in death, and that even in someone's twilight years, there is joy to be extracted from life. 'So I'll be voting No. And as I do so, I'll be thinking of my great pal – my Nana, Dorothy.' Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch urged her MPs to vote against the legislation, describing it as 'a bad Bill' despite being 'previously supportive of assisted suicide'. Mother of the House Diane Abbott also asked MPs to vote against the bill, saying: 'There is no doubt that if this Bill is passed in its current form, people will lose their lives who do not need to, and they will be amongst the most vulnerable and marginalised in our society.'

The six biggest make-up mistakes that are making women over 50 look older, according to top beauty experts
Daily Mail journalists select and curate the products that feature on our site. If you make a purchase via links on this page we will earn commission - learn more I have a big birthday looming – no, not that one, not quite yet - but the one that nudges me into my 50th year. And, somehow, this feels significant. Perhaps it's not that surprising - the Chinese Medicine practitioner Katie Brindle told me that, for women, the landmark birthday is not 50, but 49, because according to TCM we move through life in seven year cycles – and the start of the eighth marks the beginning of our 'second spring'. I'm not sure I'm quite ready for that yet, but when I look over pictures from the last year I can definitely see any wisdom I may have accumulated thus far in life showing up far more than it ever did before. I've never had Botox, fillers and the rest and I haven't yet decided if I will, but like most of us, I wouldn't mind slowing the progress of time on my face. And I know that make-up can work magic – if it's done well. So, I decided to ask the experts about the most ageing make-up mistakes they see women making – and their fixes. Read on to learn how to roll back the years with a flick of your mascara wand… NEVER OVER-POWDER Frances Prescott, Make-up artist and founder of Tri Balm and Maeva Rae A common mistake is to over powder. Don't! For a gorgeous dewy finish, use a hybrid product combining make-up and skincare ingredients, like Katherine Daniels Pure Pigment Foundation Drops (£42 / 20ml which has a supple texture that doesn't cake. Or look for tinted moisturisers instead. Pure Pigment Foundation Drops £42 / 20ml Shop GET CLEVER WITH CONCEALER Sascha Jackson, lead make-up artist Stila One of the most common ageing mistakes is using concealer that's too light and applying too much of it. The key is to choose a shade close to your foundation—no more than half a shade lighter. If you're dealing with dark circles, apply a peach-toned corrector first to neutralise purple tones, then follow with a small amount of concealer to brighten. Use a soft, fluffy brush to apply concealer gently—especially under the eyes, where too much product can settle into fine lines. Gabriella Elio, Make-up artist and founder of Sweed Beauty Women who are peri or menopausal, don't need to be afraid of blusher, but they (i)do(i) need to use it differently. Ignore the apples of your cheeks and apply to the top of your cheekbone instead, then blend down. Then put a flick of highlighter on top – you're focusing on lighting up your face at eye level. Blusher, like the Sweed Air Blush Cream (£28, used at the top of your cheeks replicates the fullness of lost fat pads. As we age, we all lose structure and fat – a swirl of blush creates the illusion of fullness, and youth! SOFTEN YOUR GO-TO SHADES Suzy Griffin Dunne, Make-up artist, founder of Hildun Beauty As we age, we need to reconsider not just the placement of make-up but also the textures of the products we are using. Generally, we need more hydration and creamier textures that are going to move with our faces instead of getting stuck in lines. Another important factor to consider when is that the colours we used to wear may be a little harsh, and we might need to soften those shades, perhaps changing our traditional black eyeliner to a brown. We have found this approach very popular with lots of our customers. In fact, we now have three shades in our ultra creamy brown eyeliner with a fourth launching later this year (£16, Award Winning Silk to Set Kajal Liner £16 Shop PLUMP UP LIPS LIKE A PRO Vincent Ford, Global Make-up artist When you apply your lip pencil or lipstick avoid taking the product all the way to the corners of the mouth. This pulls the mouth down and ages you. Instead only apply the lip colour to the centre of the lips and blend outwards, softly diffusing the colour. It will give the appearance of a fuller, more youthful mouth. Easy! OPEN EYES WITH A TOP LASHES TRICK Caroline Barnes, celebrity make-up artist Applying mascara to your top lashes only can really lift your eyes, especially if you use a mascara that dumps a lot of the product at the root of the lash because this creates a lovely invisible line that doesn't weigh the lid down. Try Elf Extender (£6.94, which has a really thin barrel that deposits the mascara very close to the lash, or Sweed mascara (£24, which deposits the mascara right to the roots of your lashes. Obviously you could open out your eyes by having mascara on the top and bottom lashes, but making it a little bit top heavy really does create a beautiful lift. Cosmetic Craving Eyeam Magnesium Butter, £25 for a 60g pot ( This brand is the brainchild of the Organic Pharmacy's Margo and her daughter Roxy, so I had high hopes – and I wasn't disappointed. After applying a good dollop to the soles of my feet I had a super deep sleep…Not surprising given that 5ML contains 200mg of magnesium. I felt so good afterwards that I've passed my pot on to a friend who has had trouble getting enough rest recently. I'll report back, but, at the very least, I know their feet will soon be sandal-ready. @katherine_spenley MAGNESIUM GLYMPHATIC SLEEPY BUTTER £25 Shop

Whiteboard warrior: Marvel is priming Mister Fantastic to be the new leader of the Avengers
The Avengers need a new leader, and given how many potential candidates for the gig have either died, retired, or turned evil, they need it soon. The multiverse is collapsing, timelines are unravelling, box office numbers are wobbling, the Kang plan is in tatters and Blade is on its ninth script. So, naturally, Marvel's answer is to hand the reins to a stretchy man in sensible shoes who once broke the entire multiverse. Yes, according to The Fantastic Four: First Steps director Matt Shakman, the awesome foursome's Reed Richards is being lined up as the new leader of Earth's mightiest heroes. Or at least, he is (at times) in the comics, and it looks increasingly like he might be the only reality-straddling, buttoned up polymathable to take on this job on the big screen. 'He goes from being the nerdy scientist who's locked away in the lab, to the husband and the father who'd do anything to protect his family, to the guy who's leading the Avengers,' Shakman told Variety, in a new interview ahead of the release of First Steps. 'I realised that the version we were building had to have all of those elements.' With the Fantastic Four's debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe now only a week away, it's perhaps the right time to take a look at exactly what kind of man Marvel might be nudging into the empty chair. Let's not forget that this is a mantle once sort of jointly held by Iron Man and Captain America. Reed Richards, by contrast, is less a natural leader than he is the kind of man who accidentally invents godhood before breakfast. In the comics, he's a genius, a father, a sometimes war criminal, and very occasionally the most powerful being in existence. If Robert Downey Jr's Tony Stark was all ego, charisma and self-loathing in a can, and Chris Evans's Steve Rogers was apple pie and emotional repression with the ability to bench-press liberty, then Reed is the guy who treats collapsing timelines like a crossword puzzle and has, on more than one occasion in the comics, tried to solve galactic crises using charts. Perhaps the difference this time around (after two attempts to bring the Fantastic Four to the big screen during the 20th Century Fox era) is that Richards is now being played by Pedro Pascal, an actor who has already proven in The Mandalorian that he can project warmth, gravitas and reluctant-dad energy despite wearing a bucket on his head. If anyone can revive Marvel, it's the guy who transformed what should have been another run-of-the-mill zombie video game adaptation (The Last of Us) into high-end post-apocalyptic art-house TV. Giving Reed Richards the top job also speaks volumes about where the MCU is right now. Gone are the days of heroes with moral codes, defined character arcs, and just one version of themselves per universe. We're deep into the age of collapse and crossover, where no one knows who's running what, where half the audience are Googling 'Wait, who is that?' during every post-credits scene, and the only thing holding the multiverse together is the vague promise that Downey's Doctor Doom will eventually reboot the franchise with the sheer force of his contempt. All of which brings us to hints this week (denied by Shakman) that the metal-plated menace might make his first appearance in First Steps, before presumably following Marvel's first family into the main MCU in next year's Avengers: Doomsday. If Reed is Marvel's reset button, Doom is its nuclear option — the character you deploy when you've run out of timelines, villains, and narrative excuses. The idea of Reed going up against a twisted variant of the previous Avengers figurehead – if this new Doom really is some kind of alternate-universe Tony Stark with a god complex and a cloak budget – has a certain multiverse-bending symmetry to it. So why not have Reed face him down as a new type of Avengers leader? They might just be from the same universe, and this is a battle that has been carried out countless times in print. Mister Fantastic is brilliant. He's brave. And he's got a pretty impressive track record of saving all of existence – which could come in useful when you're facing the sort of supervillain who treats the fabric of existence like a mood board for his ego. Unlike Stark or Rogers, Reed doesn't need a cool catchphrase, or a billion-dollar suit with built-in sarcasm. He just needs a quiet room, a few hundred monitors, and the freedom to quietly map the collapse of the multiverse.
