As evidenced by their PDA in Hawaii, Kate Bosworth and Justin Long are clearly a couple.

When it comes to Kate Bosworth and Justin Long, it's clear they're more than a crush. The sparks flying between the two stars were on full display as they enjoyed time on the beach together in Kaua'i on Friday during their recent trip to Hawaii.

The couple was photographed arm in arm and, at one point, mid-liplock as they lounged in the sand, eliminating any remaining doubt over whether they are an item. The two were in Hawaii for former InStyle Editor-in-Chief Laura Brown's wedding and, according to a source, were enjoying some time on Shipwreck Beach ahead of a dinner reception. 

Prior to their vacation PDA, the two had managed to keep their romance out of the spotlight save for being photographed out to dinner together in early April.

 During a recent appearance on The Viall Files podcast, Long did not mention Bosworth by name, but did confirm he's found "the one."

"It's weird. I want to [talk about it], but I also want to be protective," Long explained. "I want to scream it from the rooftops, but I also want to be protective. It's sacred."
