Their relationship became public in July 2023 when they attended the Sydney premiere of Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One together.
The former couple made their red carpet debut at the 2023 Earthshot Prize in Singapore in November of the same year. The Earthshot Prize celebrates innovative efforts to combat climate change.
