The soon-to-be former “Daily Show” host, 38, leaned back in his chair and laughed when asked about the “latest headlines” with Lipa, 27, in a new interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
“It’s just amazing to me how powerful these things are,” Noah said, admitting that he’s not the biggest fan of having his love life in the tabloids.
Noah recalled a particular occasion in which he was photographed hugging a “mystery woman” – who ended up being his friend’s wife – over the summer, following his split from Minka Kelly.
“The family calls the husband, like, ‘Oh my God, Trevor’s having an affair with your wife,’” he told the outlet.
“And my friend’s like, ‘I’m in the picture, too,’ and they’re like, ‘Well, that’s not what the tabloids say.’”
Both Noah and Lipa have kept quiet about their new romance after they were spotted on a date night at Miss Lily’s in New York City’s East Village in September.
An insider told Page Six at the time that the “Levitating” songstress was “smitten” with the comedian, who was a total “gentleman” all night.
The source emphasized that while the outing was “definitely a date,” the two were still in the “very early” stages of a possible relationship. Although they went home “separately,” they shared a “corner lip kiss” at the end of the night.
“There is definitely interest on both ends,” our insider gushed.
