Who wore it better? Photographed at a promotional event for her new movie, Jennifer Aniston sported a black tank dress by Michael Kors, the same dress worn by curvy newcomer Grace Sheridan. Sheridan, the rumored girlfriend of Jack Hamilton, wore the dress to a Kate Spade event in Los Angeles. Curvy hourglass or athletic build—who wore it better? What say you, InStylers?

Jack Hamilton snaps at fans! Surrounded by autograph seekers while leaving a nightclub on the Las Vegas strip, the normally quiet and reserved star snapped at fans as they asked for pictures and autographs. “He seemed really out of it. I got his autograph last year when he was on Good Day LA, and he was much nicer! He barely spoke to any of us and when he did, he told us to move out of the way.” Reports also note that Hamilton was staggering out of the club after an evening of partying and losing a bundle earlier that night at the Palms Casino Resort. Sexy Scientist Guy is a jerk? Say it ain’t so, Hamilton!
From @LAXforHamiltonSEX 2:31p.m. I swear to God I just saw Jack Hamilton pull into the parking lot at Top of the Glen in Bel Air. I think it’s him and that redhead!

Still wondering about whether Jack Hamilton is single? Let’s break this down. New pictures have emerged from what looks to be a date night for the Time heartthrob and rumored gal pal Grace Sheridan, herself an actress and starring in a new series for Venue, set to premiere this summer. Dressed casually in T-shirt and jeans, the young star was snapped walking closely with Sheridan outside Top of the Glen. The two appeared to be laughing and sharing an ice cream, until they noticed photographers and quickly separated.
While no recent pictures have been taken of the pair, they were photographed repeatedly last year, when they were decidedly less guarded. What follows is what we know:
Sources close to the couple have confirmed that the two met at a party last summer hosted by manager Holly Newman (both are now represented by Newman). The first picture of the two of them together was snapped at Malibu eatery Gladstones. Additional photos were circulated later that week of the two at Japanese restaurant Yamashiro. The following week they were spotted shopping at Whole Foods, grabbing lunch at Fatburger, and while there are no pictures to confirm, hotel staff have reported the two spent a weekend at a luxury hotel in Santa Barbara.
Flash forward several weeks to pictures that surfaced of the two holding hands in New York’s Central Park, where we now know Grace was living while working on her new musical/now TV series Mabel’s Unstable?
The next time we saw the couple in the same place at the same time was at the premiere of Time, Hamilton’s breakout role. Walking the red carpet, a smart photographer recognized Sheridan, who until this time had been known only as the unidentified redhead. She gave her name to one of the photographers, and the entire press line was abuzz that she was the redhead Hamilton had been seen with so many times.
Since then, mum’s the word. The camera-shy couple has refused to speak about their relationship, and no incriminating photos have surfaced since the pictures in New York City. When asked to comment, their shared rep Holly Newman has only said, “They’re great friends. They met at a party I hosted for several of my clients months ago. They’re thrown together a lot. They’re not a couple.”
Others have a different opinion.
“They have to keep it quiet; Jack’s fans would flip if they knew he was unavailable,” says a source close to the couple. Fan sites of the actor have been musing for months about whether the two are a real life couple.
“Of course they aren’t. It’s all publicity! Think about it: Grace has the same manager as Jack does. She’s behind it all. Press for Jack means press for Grace. It’s all about raising her profile. If you ask me, he can do a lot better,” says Molly Hunter, who runs the Southern Girls for Jack Hamilton blog, whose readers are in the they’re-not-dating camp.
Recently Hamilton’s behavior has raised some red flags. While appearing in the past to be a quiet and reserved actor, he’s been hitting the party and nightclub circuit heavily, photographed at all hours of the night, often appearing heavily intoxicated. No word on how Sheridan is handling the time apart or Hamilton’s new life as the party persona.
The question is, now that Grace’s star is on the rise, will they or won’t they reveal their true relationship?

Production closed for the new series Mabel’s Unstable?, and actress Grace Sheridan celebrated with close friends at a restaurant in the trendy neighborhood of Los Feliz. Cast members, writers, and director David Lancaster gathered together to toast to the new show’s success. But that’s not the big story . . . Originally slated for a fall release, rumor has it that while production and subsequent ordering of a full season before an episode had even aired was based partly on the originality of the show, the quick pickup may also be linked to the star’s alleged relationship with Jack Hamilton. Was the show picked up because of the obvious connection between Sheridan, a previously unknown actress with no credits to her name, and her high-profile relationship with Hamilton? Was the channel counting on her name staying linked to Hamilton? Stay tuned for more on that . . .
Press were camped outside the private party to see if Hamilton would show up to support his girlfriend. The pair has never commented publicly on the status of their relationship, and the pictures most indicative of a close relationship were captured before Time was released and before Sheridan was cast in the upcoming series. Since then they have been careful to avoid any pictures that could confirm the nature of their relationship, although several shots have been captured, most recently at a party at Holly Newman’s home (manager for both Hamilton and Sheridan) in late March. At the time, Hamilton was obviously intoxicated and being helped to a waiting car by both Sheridan and Michael O’Connell (writer and creator of Mabel’s Unstable?). Since then Hamilton has been seen partying many nights, usually in the company of his castmate from Soldier Boy Adam Kasen in either L.A. or Las Vegas. Hamilton was not seen entering the private party, but tweets from inside the restaurant confirmed he was in attendance. Sources inside the party report that Hamilton was quiet and reserved, sitting close to Sheridan or at her table and mingling with other party guests. While no pictures of the two have emerged, reports from inside confirm that they were holding hands and acting as though they were a couple. The two actors left in separate cars from the party.
