Are Tobey Maguire and Lily Chee really dating? Not according to the actor’s ex-wife, Jennifer Meyer.
In fact, the jewelry designer stepped in to defend the Spider-Man alum, 49, after he was photographed with the 20-year-old model Michael Rubin’s annual Fourth of July white party.
In response to a social user who asked Jennifer—who shares kids Ruby, 17, and Otis, 15, with her ex—why Tobey was “banging someone 3 years older than your daughter,” Jennifer clapped back at the relationship speculation.
“I don’t usually respond to such nonsense, but he was kindly helping a friend to her car,” she responded, per screenshots shared by Page Six. “Being a good guy. And now he has [sic] blasted online for dating someone he is not.”
Jennifer, who was married to Tobey for nine years before they separated in 2016, added, “But thank you for your rude comment. I hope it made you feel better today. Wishing you love and light.”
And in an additional social media interaction with the same user, per screenshots, Jennifer reminded users, “Don’t believe everything you read,” adding of her ex, “Tobey is as good of a guy as it gets.”
