Amanda Seyfried holds hands with new boyfriend, Desmond Harrington, in NYC

After a string of failed romances, has Amanda Seyfried finally found a guy to break the spell? On Monday, the “Les Miserables” actress stepped out holding the hand of her latest squeeze, “Dexter” star Desmond Harrington, during a stroll around New York City. The new couple may not have looked very happy when they were snapped – it was a rainy and muggy day in the Big Apple – but they seemed to be smitten.

On August 18, they stepped out for tea at Earth Bar in West Hollywood, California, in matching white T-shirts. Seyfried, 26, and Harrington, 34, were first photographed together in late July when they took her dog Flynn for a walk. Just before that, the two packed on the PDA during a group date with some of her friends at low-key Hollywood bar The Pikey. “They were holding hands and he had his arm around her,” one onlooker told Celebuzz. “At one point, he even leaned in for a passionate kiss. They looked very into each other.”

It’s unclear how Seyfried – who has dated James Franco, Josh Hartnett, Ryan Phillippe, and two real estate agents in the past year – and Harrington met exactly, but they do have one person in common: his “Dexter” co-star Jennifer Carpenter, who was recently spotted on a hike with Seyfried in the Hollywood Hills.

Let’s hope Carpenter – who married and divorced her “Dexter” co-star Michael C. Hall – is a better matchmaker for Desmond than she is herself.
