In response to a news report that said she responded to rumours of her ex-husband, actor Naga Chaitanya, dating actor Sobhita Dhulipala, actor Samantha Ruth Prabhu tweeted on Tuesday: “I never said this!”

A photo of the rumoured couple emerged online recently. In the picture, Chaitanya posed with a chef for a picture while Dhulipala was seen sitting at a table behind them. Reportedly, the photo was of the couple in London.

In response to this, Samantha was quoted by The Siasat Daily as saying in an interview to a news portal, “I am not bothered who is in a relationship with whom. Those who do not know the value of love will be left in tears irrespective of the number of people they date. At least that girl should be happy. If he changes his behaviour and looks after the girl without hurting her, it will be good for everyone.” But, the The Family Man 2 actor, denied saying this.

Samantha and Chaitanya, who tied the knot in October 2017, split up in October 2021.
