Shailene Woodley has been romantically linked to Canadian actress Ellen Page, who recently announced that she is gay.

In February, the 27-year-old Juno actress talked about her sexual orientation at the Human Rights Campaign's Time To THRIVE conference for LGBTQ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Questioning) youth in Las Vegas.

"I'm here today because I am gay," Page told the crowd. "And because maybe I can make a difference. To help others have an easier and more hopeful time. Regardless, for me, I feel a personal obligation and a social responsibility," she said.

According to OK! Magazine, the two actresses sparked a romance after Page came out.

"Ellen really leaned on Shailene through the coming out process," a source told the publication.

This report comes after the Divergent star opened up about her sexuality and revealed that she does not put restrictions on herself when it comes to love.

"I fall in love with human beings based on who they are, not based on what they do or what sex they are," Woodley told the Hollywood Reporter in March.

Meanwhile, the 22-year-old was rumoured to be dating her The Fault in Our Stars co-star Ansel Elgort.

However, the 20-year-old actor denied the reports. "Shailene and I share a certain love but it's a friendship love," Elgort told The Guardian.
