actor James Tupper and founder of U Beauty Tina Chen Craig are raising eyebrows with their latest social media posts.
Over the weekend, the pair sparked romance rumors after sharing flirty photos with their followers.
On Saturday, January 24, Craig took a selfie with Tupper from a vehicle before adding heart emojis to his Instagram story.
She later shared a glimpse of her breakfast when she wrote: “Boy: chef. Me: taste tester. @Davidsons_pancake_house syrup the best I’ve ever tasted.” Tupper proceeded to share the Instagram story with her followers.
Before the weekend ended, Craig apparently spent more time with Tupper and their son, Atlas, while celebrating a friend’s birthday. (Tupper welcomed a son in 2009 with ex Anne Heche. Craig also has a 21-year-old son from a previous relationship.)
Us Weekly Tupper and Craig’s teams have been contacted for comment.
The latest social media posts come after the pair were spotted together at The Abbey’s annual Christmas in September charity event, which benefited Children’s Hospital Los Angeles.
according to Vanity Fairthe duo also enjoyed a trip to the World Snow Polo Championships in St. Regis in Aspen, Colorado in December 2025. At one point during their stay, both Tupper and Craig were able to enjoy the hotel’s RAKxa wellness spa.

After the sighting, Loughlin’s rep assured we that “Lori and James have worked together and are old friends.”
Although Tupper has been able to keep much of his personal life on the private side, many fans will remember his long relationship with Heche.
The couple first met in 2006 on the set of their film Men in trees. What came next was a long-term romance that lasted from 2007 to 2018.
After Heche tragically died in August 2022 after a car accident, Tupper made sure to prioritize his role as a father.
“I love being a dad. It’s my No. 1,” he said explained exclusively we in December 2024. “I’m so happy and proud of the way he’s growing up. He’s got a lot of great things going for him and just watching him do all that, defend himself and fight, it’s amazing.”
While Tupper has found success in acting and theater, Craig has proven to be a business woman. The former MTV VJ launched BagSnob, one of the first fashion and lifestyle blogs, in 2005.
In 2019, Craig and Katie Borghese founded U Beauty to challenge the skin care status quo. Together, they leveraged innovative technology to meet consumer demand
for less and better products.
“I had a really complicated skin care routine and I just knew there had to be a better way,” Craig shared with she in February 2025. “I didn’t understand how we put a man on the moon in 1969 but couldn’t make a retinol that wouldn’t give me rosacea. I was so frustrated with the beauty industry.”
