Shia shacks up with actress

-

AFTER his dramatic split following a public f ight with actress Mia Goth, Shia LaBeouf has fallen in love and moved in with unknown actress Sasha Lane, sources exclusivel­y tell Page Six.

Photos of LaBeouf and newcomer Lane — who was said to be broke before being cast in the movie “American Honey” with LaBeouf — holding hands surfaced two weeks ago, after the pair was previously seen having lunch in Studio City, Calif. But a source familiar with the actor says things have progressed further.

“They fell in love, and have moved in together,” the source said of the pair, who met on the set of Brit director Andrea Arnold’s upcoming film, “American Honey.” “Sasha was completely unknown. She’s also become best friends with Riley Keough (another of the film’s costars). Riley’s been taking her to fashion shows in Paris. She is going to be a huge star.”

“American Honey” follows a runaway teen girl and a hardpartyi­ng, lawbending band of misfits on a trip across the Midwest.

Lane was spotted with Keough and Rosie Huntington­Whiteley at a Dior haute couture show in Paris in July. In photos of the trio from the event, Lane was only identif ied as “and guest.” And indeed, little is known about the actress. Her Facebook page says she lives in McKinney, Texas, and that she works as a hostess at chain restaurant On the Border Mexican Grill & Cantina.

We hear that Arnold discovered Lane — who a Hollywood source says “was completely destitute” before being cast in the film. Another star in “American Honey,” Arielle Holmes, was nowfamousl­y panhandlin­g on the Upper West Side before she became an actress.

In late July, LaBeouf was caught on film in a nearviolen­t argument on a street in Germany with his girlfriend since 2012, Goth. He told two strangers of the altercatio­n, “I don’t want to hit a woman, but I’m being pushed.”

Another LaBeouf project, “Man Down,” premieres at the Toronto Internatio­nal Film Festival on Tuesday. His rep didn’t get back to us.
