I have always been wondering how come - if ever - it's possible for men and women to be just friends. As in strictly, pat-on-the-back, support each other but don't sleep together, simply friends. And the answer is, they can't. Every woman gets the chance to discover this at some point in her life, and Sienna Miller finally seems to have realized - or, rather, we seem to have become aware that she has realized - she must have some feelings other than pure friendship for Welsh actor Rhys Ifans.
The fact is, the guilty...sorry, I mean the happy couple have insisted, despite all the rumors, that they were nothing more than friends. Yet over the weekend, these two were foolish enough to go out in public together and let themselves be caught sharing a very sweet (cough) and passionate kiss. And in case you still have doubts while looking at the photos, these pictures depict Sienna Miller and Rhys Ifans taking Sienna's two dogs for a walk hand-in-hand and stopping occasionally to hug and kiss.

At one point, they snuggled up to one another while passing a graveyard (I know, very romantic couple they are) and shared an intimate kiss. The couple have been constant companions for weeks and if you remember, Ifans was the (barely disguised) reason for which Kate Moss accused Sienna Miller of stealing her friends, her style and infiltrating her close circle of friends. But despite all these attacks and the media speculation, both Ifans and Miller have consistently denied they are dating, with Sienna insisting that Ifans has merely been sleeping on her couch since his London houseboat flooded.
The couple (we get to call them that now - wait - if they kiss in the street, that does make them a couple, right?) even went on holiday together this summer in Ibiza. And boy, I'm sure it's so much fun pretending not to be lovers and hiding from everyone. It sounds like some sort of game, and I'm sure it was all very funny, laughing at the expense of the press. But I do have to wonder - how on earth did they manage not to touch and kiss each other while completely drunk, as most of the time spent together in public was spent wandering from one party to another? Now THAT must have been fun. What do you think?
