An insider close to the situation tells us both Eva and Jason, 35, were at the 24 Hour Plays benefit at the Broad Stage in Santa Monica Saturday night, June 18. Eva, along with Sophia Bush, Minnie Driver and Twilight‘s Cam Gigandet performed in the play, which raises money for Urban Arts.
“After the show was over, which was about 10:15 pm, Eva came to the lobby where she met Jason,” our eyewitness says. “They gave each other a big hug and then chatted for about 10 minutes. Eva looked really happy, and so did Jason. They walked out hand in hand. Eva then signed a couple of autographs, while Jason patiently waited. Then they both got into Eva’s black car. Jason sat in the driver’s side and Eva in the passenger’s side. They sat in the parking lot and made out for out 10 minutes.”
Adds our first insider, “They skipped the after party which was held in Santa Monica and went straight to the Sunset Tower Bar where they grabbed a bite to eat. They got there at about 11:45 pm.”
The twosome recently teamed up at the MTV Movie Awards in the opening Hangover spoof. Could Eva be taken by Jason’s silly sense of humor?
Plus, most recently Eva has seemed disenchanted when it comes to her long-term relationship. Not only did she dis the idea of marriage in her Mirror interview, she also brought it up to Marie Claire in March.
“I don’t wanna have kids … I love the little suckers; they’re so cute. But I love sleep so much, and I worry about everything,” she said, adding, “I feel like the institution of marriage is a very archaic kinda thing. I don’t think it fits in my world today.”
Jason split from his girlfriend of six months, January Jones, last January. Prior to that, he was married to actress and 30 Rock writer Kay Cannon from 2004-2010.
Both Eva and Jason’s reps were unavailable for comment.
