The onlooker revealed the pair were holding hands throughout the evening and at one stage Cory fed Lea spaghetti and she affectionately rubbed his back in return.

A 'Glee' crew member added: "Cory is totally into her."

The 25-year-old beauty split from Broadway star Theo Stockman - her boyfriend of 17 months - in September 2011. Last year, Lea admitted if she was going to get romantically involved with any other cast members then it would be with the 29-year-old hunk.
