Here’s the Real Story
Short answer – No, Khloe Kardashian is not dating Michele Morrone, their brief connection at a Dolce & Gabbana fashion event was a publicity setup, not a real romance.
Rumors swirl fast in Hollywood, but few have gotten fans buzzing like the recent whispers about Khloe Kardashian dating Michele Morrone, the Italian actor famous for his 365 Days role, often described as “soft porn practically” by gossip bloggers.
Where Did the Khloe Kardashian & Michele Morrone Rumor Start?
It all began during Milan Fashion Week in 2022, when Khloe Kardashian was photographed getting close with hunky male lead Michele Morrone at the Dolce & Gabbana show. Kim Kardashian, who was creative director for the event, made it clear on The Kardashians that she was playing matchmaker for her sister:
“I am such a Setter upper,” Kim Kardashian is playing Matchmaker for Khloe on this week’s episode of The Kardashians.”
At lunch, Kim told the group,
“You’re never gonna guess who I invite you to sit next to, Khloe, the actor Michele Morrone.”
She explained the idea came to her after friends told her about Morrone’s steamy Netflix show, saying,
“He’s so hot, he’s in the show… it’s like soft porn practically, but it’s a show on Netflix, 365 Days.”
Kim’s plan?
“Let’s fully set this up so Khloe falls in love in Milan.”
And, as Kim put it,
“My plan for Khloe is to get her mojo back in Milan.”
To which Khloe quipped,
“I didn’t know I lost my mojo, but I guess Kim definitely thinks I did.”
Was It Real or Just For Show?
Despite the speculation, Morrone’s rep clarified that the interaction was all set up by the Dolce & Gabbana team for publicity. In real life, Khloe and Michele had only met that day. Friendship, let alone romance, between Khloe Kardashian and Michele Morrone’s IRL personal life, just didn’t exist, any suggestions of something more are simply untrue. As Morrone reflected in interviews, it was “just a moment for the cameras.”
