The âBig Little Liesâ star and the businessman were first romantically linked in July when they were photographed on a dinner date at LâArtusi in the West Village.
At the time, sources told the Daily Mail that Witherspoon and Haarmann had spent the entire weekend together and had been secretly dating for months.
Another insider, however, told People the duo were âjust friendsâ and the mom of two was âtaking things slow when it comes to dating.â
âShe enjoys it but doesnât want it to be a big focus. Sheâs busy with work and her son,â the source shared. âThese are her biggest priorities.â
