Jesse Metcalfe is ‘living in the guest house as he quarantines with ex Cara Santana’ after being pictured with other women
Cara Santana and Jesse Metcalfe surprised fans when they were spotted together earlier this week, after their January split.
But the couple is not reconciling according to multiple reports and during COVID-19 isolation Jesse, 41, is living in the guesthouse on the property they used to share.
A source told E! News that the couple is ‘absolutely not’ back together and their reunion is only out of necessity.
Not back together: Cara Santana and Jesse Metcalfe were seen together at a gas station in LA during the COVID-19 lockdown on Wednesday, but the two are NOT back together
A source told E!: ‘They are absolutely not back together. They were together for 14 years, own a home together, and have made the mature decision to self-isolate together with Jesse living in the guest house,’
Sources echoed the same sentiment to Us Weekly on Thursday: ‘They are definitely not back together. They own a home together and they are quarantined together.
‘Jesse lives in the guest house. They had to make the mature decision to deal with this situation together like many people going through a breakup right now.’
Despite Metcalfe previously being seen cozying up to multiple women months ago leading to their break-up, things seem to be cordial between the two as a second insider said they are ‘making things work’ amid the global pandemic but are not back together.
They explained: ‘They are cohabitating and quarantining together.’
Not a happy reunion: Cara and Jesse are seen in January prior to their split
Cara and Jesse split in January after more than a decade together but were seen together as he filled up his Mercedes G-Wagon at a gas station in Los Angeles on Wednesday.
The sighting led to speculation that the exes may have reunited.
Jesse, who is best known for his roles on ABC’s Desperate Housewives and TNT’s reboot of Dallas, wore a face mask and disposable gloves as he gassed up his SUV.

They dated for 10 years before getting engaged in 2016, with Jesse popping the question on a sailboat in New York’s Hudson River.
