The two visited the posh restaurant Catch Steak together last Sunday evening.

And things seemingly got romantic!

The rapper can be seen opening the door to the restaurant for his world-famous companion and placing his hand around her waist.

But that's not all – the two even held hands on the way to dinner!

The couple then left the restaurant separately as if Carey and Anderson not want to be seen together.

It's not the first time the two have spent time together.

They have been spotted together several times in recent months, for example on Halloween.

Both stars are currently officially single, so a red-hot liaison is possible!
