Even though fans have always enjoyed Jennifer Lawrence's candid (and occasionally embarrassing) interviews, she's rarely given up the details of her romantic life. Over the past few years, Lawrence has managed to keep her fans guessing about the most private details surrounding her relationship. Fortunately, we know how Lawrence and Maroney linked up. According to Page Six, "They met through Jen's friend Laura [Simpson] ... " revealed a source. "The relationship has been going on for a few weeks. But they have been very private and careful not to be seen together," the source added. They didn't mention how Simpson initially knew Maroney. However, he worked for the Gladstone Gallery, which had ties to several high-profile artists.

Simpson and Lawrence's history, however, is definitely no secret. According to the timeline Simpson gave in 2014, she and Lawrence have been friends since 2007. "I met [Jennifer Lawrence] seven years ago at an event where we both didn't know a single person," Simpson wrote on Myspace (via ABC News). "We hit it off over a mutual respect for Chandler Bing, and we've been eating pizza together ever since." Continuing, Simpson detailed the part she played in Lawrence's historic Oscar fall. "We finally arrive at the red carpet and as we exit the car, my date [Lawrence] eats s*** and uses my freshly done Lauren Conrad up-do to break her fall. The crowd goes wild."
