Chloe Bennet and Logan Paul play coy about relationship

Actress Chloe Bennet is playing coy about her rumored relationship with YouTube personality Logan Paul.

Earlier this week (ends07Jul17), it was revealed the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. star split from actor Austin Nichols after four years of dating. Bennet has since been seen on vacation in Hawaii with Paul and while she doesn't address the dating rumors directly, she slams the negative comments she has been receiving.

"Everyone's being really mean and aggressive online, and can we all just chill?" she says in a video on the streaming site. "Like both sides of things. (Logan's fans) are being mean to me, too."

Bennet and Paul met while filming movie Valley Girl and over America's Independence Day (04Jul17), they were seen kissing while on vacation. In the video posted on Thursday (07Jul17), Paul addresses the photos, but doesn't reveal the status of their relationship.

"Chloe and I are friends, for sure," he says. "In my opinion, friends sometimes make out. Touch butts. If you haven't kissed your friends, I don't think you're friends. So that's what Chloe and I were doing.

"It's kind of awkward because this puts us in a position where you're maybe forced to label what this is, but we don't know what it is," he adds. "We were keeping this private... It's an intimate thing..."
