Susan Sarandon, 63, has long denied dating 31-year-old business partner Jonathan Bricklin. However, after a recent appearance to Italy together, we're not so sure. Yes, it was a trip to the Giffoni Film Festival, but still -- Italy! C'mon!

The couple pair of good, good friends were spotted strolling and shopping in the town of Ravello on June 26. Sarandon, who co-owns New York City ping-pong club SPiN with Bricklin, gave Entertainment Weekly a coy "no comment" when asked about a romantic link in April, though she did say: "I certainly love the idea of being in love, and I love the idea of companionship. Whatever happens next in terms of romance or partners, I don't know. But it's exhilarating and terrifying. I think the point is to just keep moving, and to just say yes to life."

Sarandon split from partner Tim Robbins after 23 years last fall. Robbins -- who admitted to recording a "mid-life crisis album" about the breakup -- was 12 years her junior.
