Tobey Maguire faces backlash for dating 20-year-old Lily Chee; here's how ex-wife Jennifer Meyer reacted

The sighting that sparked the rumours involved Tobey and Lily at the star-studded Hamptons party.

Rumours have been swirling about a potential romance between actor Tobey Maguire, 49, and 20-year-old model Lily Chee after they were seen together at Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin's annual Independence Day party in the Hamptons, New York. However, Maguire's ex-wife, Jennifer Meyer, has firmly debunked these speculations, calling them 'nonsense.'

In a report by The Independent, Jennifer Meyer addressed the rumours via Instagram after a user brought them to her attention. The user left a now-deleted comment asking why Tobey would be involved with someone only three years older than their daughter. “Why is your ex-husband b**ging someone three years older than your daughter?” the user wrote.

“I don’t usually respond to such nonsense, but he was kindly helping a friend to her car, being a good guy. And now he has [been] blasted online for dating someone he is not. But thank you for your rude comment, I hope it made you feel better today. Wishing you love and light.”

The sighting that sparked the rumours involved Tobey and Lily at the star-studded Hamptons party, which included guests like Machine Gun Kelly, Megan Fox, Drake, Megan Thee Stallion, Kim and Khloé Kardashian, Tom Brady, Rob Gronkowski, Quavo, Druski, Emily Ratajkowski, and Lil Wayne. Tobey and Lily were seen wearing matching all-white outfits, with photos showing Tobey's arm around Lily's waist, adding fuel to the speculation.

Despite the rumours, neither Tobey Maguire nor Lily Chee has publicly commented on the matter. Lily did share several photos from the party on her Instagram account, featuring her and her friends enjoying the event, but there was no mention of any romantic involvement with Tobey.

Tobey Maguire and Jennifer Meyer were married in 2007 in a ceremony in Kona, Hawaii. They were together for nine years before separating in 2016, with Jennifer filing for divorce in 2020. The couple shares two children: daughter Ruby Sweetheart and son Otis Tobias.
