There’s nothing romantic going on between Ruth Wilson and Joshua Jackson. The 34-year-old actress shot down reports of a rumored romance in a Vanity Fair interview which was published on Wednesday.

"It's boring gossip," Wilson told the magazine of reports that she's dating her co-star on Showtime's The Affair.

Romance rumors began swirling after Wilson was spotted with 38-year-old Jackson at a New York City restaurant in August, but the outing was strictly platonic.

"You can tell from that photo that we’re friends. I just sort of go, 'All right, well, whatever, I have to keep answering.'"

"If you want an answer about whether we're dating or not, 'no' is the absolute truth," Wilson continued. "We all go out a lot. We're four Irish-Catholic actors who happen to be on a show together, and that means we like a drink and we like to have a good time. So all four of us go out."
