Jennifer Meyer, the ex-wife of Tobey Maguire, has addressed recent rumours of a romance between the actor and 20-year-old Lily Chee. The speculation arose after the pair were seen together at Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin’s annual Independence Day party in the Hamptons, New York. In a report by The Independent, Jennifer responded to a comment on Instagram, explaining that Tobey was merely helping a friend to her car and not involved romantically with Chee.
The rumour mill started turning when a user commented on Jennifer Meyer’s Instagram, drawing her attention to the photos. The now-deleted comment read: “Why is your ex-husband b**ging someone three years older than your daughter?”
Jennifer, typically reserved on such matters, decided to respond. “I don’t usually respond to such nonsense, but he was kindly helping a friend to her car, being a good guy. And now he has [been] blasted online for dating someone he is not. But thank you for your rude comment, I hope it made you feel better today. Wishing you love and light,” she wrote.
Neither Tobey Maguire nor Lily Chee have publicly commented on the matter. However, Lily did share several photos from the party on her Instagram, featuring her with friends. The photos that sparked the rumours showed Tobey with his arm around Lily’s waist, both dressed in matching all-white outfits. The star-studded event was attended by numerous celebrities, including Machine Gun Kelly, Megan Fox, Drake, Megan Thee Stallion, Kim and Khloé Kardashian, Tom Brady, Rob Gronkowski, Quavo, Druski, Megan Thee Stallion, Emily Ratajkowski, and Lil Wayne.
Tobey Maguire and Jennifer Meyer married in 2007 in Kona, Hawaii. They were together for nine years before separating in 2016, and Meyer filed for divorce in 2020. The former couple shares two children: daughter Ruby Sweetheart and son Otis Tobias. Despite their separation, both have maintained a cordial relationship, focusing on co-parenting their children.
