Anna Kendrick has been hiding a torrid romance!

An insider confirms to the National Enqurier the Pitch Perfect actress, 39, has been dating comedian Alex Edelman “for several months” after photos of the two together in a car recently surfaced.

And she’s already met his mom, the insider says.

“It doesn’t seem casual,” the insider notes. “Anna’s very private, though. They enjoy date nights at low-key restaurants that are not your typical celeb hangouts.”

They also celebrated his 36th birthday together in March.

While Anna has been nominated for an Emmy and a Tony, the Boston-born funnyman actually won both awards for his solo show Just for Us.

He was previously linked to Canadian stand-up Katherine Ryan, while the Another Simple Favor actress dated Edgar Wright, who directed her in Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, from 2009 to 2013, and her Noelle costar Bill Hader from 2020 to 2022.

She also had a seven-year relationship with her Drinking Buddies cinematographer Ben Richardson that was rumored to have been psychologically abusive.

Without naming names, she talked about being gaslighted by an ex-boyfriend in 2024 on the Call Her Daddy podcast, noting she had been with the man for seven years.

“I didn’t expect how totally convinced he was of his own victimhood. I think he genuinely believed that I was, like, torturing him,” she recalled.

“I was just crying, because I couldn’t pretend that things were fine anymore. I just started crying and he screamed in my face, ‘You’re terrorizing me!’ But it was truly from the place of a person who believed that they were being terrorized.”

“It was very, very difficult to actually go, ‘No, this, I think this is … I think this is him,’” she continued. “I think, I think this is his stuff.”

But until she came to that realization, “I turned my life completely upside down trying to fix whatever was wrong with me,” she said.

After that experience, Anna decided never to get involved in another relationship unless the guy had seen, or was seeing, a therapist, “meaning we’re not even kissing, we’re not even going to have a real conversation.”

She and Ben broke up in 2020.
