On Nov., 5 Seconds of Summer (5SOS) band member Ashton Irwin announced his split with model Bryana Holly. However, the pair has been recently spotted taking a stroll in public while holding hands.

The two looked like a couple, with the 22-year-old blonde bombshell tightly holding on to Irwin’s arm, as seen in the photos published by Daily Mail. The pair was spotted at The Grove retail complex.

In a rare moment without Irwin’s bandmates, the two looked relaxed wearing casual clothes in public, with Holly looking fresh without make-up. The 21-year-old rocker wore navy skinny jeans paired with military-inspired long sleeves and military boots, while Holly wore a body-hugging white jeans and a simple black collared shirt.

Since last year, the two has been linked and were spotted together in the U.S. and across Europe.

In a recent interview with Howard Stern, Irwin said that his heavy work schedule with 5 Seconds of Summer was the reason why his relationship with Holly did not work out.

"I've been away for six months... and I was kind of seeing someone for about a year but I worked it out and I'd actually been with them for approximately two months out of that year," he explained.

Fashion & Style suggests the possibility that Irwin is just trying to keep their relationship in a low profile. In July, Irwin admitted that he was in a relationship but did not divulge any name. Taking to Rolling Stone about 5SOS’s carrier single “She’s Kinda Hot,” Irwin said, "I went into the desert with my girlfriend at the time for two days or something.”

Before Irwin joined 5SOS, he was formerly in a band called “Swallow the Goldfish” and was previously linked to Kylie Jenner. Holly, meanwhile, previously worked as a swimsuit model for Playboy and has been linked to “The Hills” star Brody Jenner.
