Sam Claflin's Girlfriend: What We Know About Cassie Amato

Sam Claflin made headlines when he confirmed his relationship with girlfriend Cassie Amato in September 2022. The "Daisy Jones & The Six" actor posted a snap of the pair to his Instagram, months after they raised eyebrows by exchanging flirty comments with each other on social media. "My only sunshine," Claflin gushed under Amato's bikini photo, per the Daily Mail. Days after going IG official, the two were spotted holding hands while enjoying a romantic stroll in London in their first public outing as a couple.

Claflin's new romance came three years after his separation from his wife, "Guardians of the Galaxy" actor Laura Haddock. The two announced their split in 2019 after six years of marriage, saying, "Laura and I have decided to legally separate. We will move forward with nothing but love, friendship and a deep respect for one another, whilst we continue to raise our family together" (via People). The two have since remained close while co-parenting their kids, son Pip and daughter Margot. Haddock has also moved on following their divorce and was romantically linked to her "White Lines" co-star Tom Rhys Harries in 2020. So, what do we know about Claflin's new girlfriend, Cassie Amato?

Cassie Amato is a young model based in Los Angeles. She's signed to multiple agencies in LA, London, and New York, and has been featured on brand campaigns and publications, including Sports Illustrated and Volcom. Growing up, Amato watched the annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show which she credits with inspiring her modeling career. "It was THE biggest event of the year for me. Looking back now, I think that young obsessive passion really lit a fire in me for what was to come," Amato told It's Now Cool. She was fresh out of high school when she pursued modeling so that she could afford to go to fashion school. However, Amato ended up working as a full-time model after being offered a deal by her first agency. "I decided I'd ride the wave as long as I was working consistently. It's now been 8 years! Still blows my mind."

In line with her job as model, Amato likes to keep fit and often shares clips of her workout routine on Instagram, where she boasts a whopping 207,000 followers as of writing. She particularly enjoys Pilates, but also does yoga and high-intensity cardio. "I have always been extremely passionate about health, physical and mental," she said. "Working out has become a second religion for me as I get older. It's been a best friend to my anxiety and really stressful times in my life."

Cassie Amato has been involved in several high-profile relationships prior to her romance with Sam Claflin. She was first linked to Scott Disick back in 2015, with In Touch Weekly reporting that the reality star "fell head over heels" in love with the hot model. A source close to Disick claimed that he even paid for Amato's trips to France and Mexico, and was totally "smitten" with her until she got involved with Hollywood star (and serial modelizer) Leonardo DiCaprio. 

Amato and the "Wolf of Wall Street" star were rumored to have hooked up after meeting during her trip to Europe that summer. The pair lasted for several months before splitting up in 2016, per Who's Dated Who. Then, in 2018, the model was reported to be dating basketball star Chandler Parsons, who retired from the NBA in 2022. The two went public with their relationship on Valentine's Day and was spotted packing on some PDA months later at Coachella. They called it quits after over a year together, with TMZ Sports saying the split was mutual and amicable.

Now, Amato is in a happy, steady relationship with Claflin, whom she recently supported by attending the premiere of his film "Daisy Jones & The Six" in Los Angeles, per Instagram. "What a magical night. The intoxicating, outstanding talent that IS @daisyjonesandthesix is going to knock your f***ing socks off," she wrote in her post, to which the actor wittingly replied, "You knock my socks off." Smooth!
