The couple who left 'The Absinthe House', a famous hangout located on the Bourbon Street, sometime after midnight, were seen spending a lot of time alone on the balcony, which also had some crew members from the movie. The group was sitting in balcony of the bar.
In a video clip that has surfaced online, Timberlake could be seen holding Alisha's hand and placing it on his right knee. In turn, Alisha was seen stroking his leg.

Timberlake married Biel in 2012 after dating her since 2007. The couple had a brief split-up in 2011 after rumours of Timberlake cheating with Olivia Munn, the 'Beyond the Break' star, surfaced. After proposing Biel again, the couple tied the knot in December 2011 at a resort in Puglia, Italy in 2012. Recently, Timberlake chose to remain silent on the controversy involving his wife supporting the tarnished anti-vaccine activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
