On Thursday, Hough, 31, was spotted walking in her socks with Westworld actor Ben Barnes in Los Angeles. The actress wore all black and sunglasses as she toted her shoes in her hands, showing off her dog-patterned socks. Barnes, 38, walked beside Hough wearing a black shirt, shades and gray sweat shorts for the sunny outing. Hough and Barnes appear to have been friends for years; they posed together at HBO’s Emmys party in 2016. Her rep did not return PEOPLE’s request for comment. The dancer/actress is practicing social distancing at home apart from her husband Brooks Laich. A source recently told PEOPLE that the couple — who tied the knot in 2017 — are accustomed to doing “their own thing.” Jeff Kravitz/FilmMagic While the Safe Haven star is shacking up in L.A., Laich, 36, is riding out the quarantine in snowy Idaho “living the simple life in nature, which makes him happy,” the source explained.
