While most, if not all, celebrity relationships can find themselves the centre of tabloid fodder, there’s one A-list couple who have managed to avoid Hollywood’s intensely prying eye.

Suki Waterhouse and Robert Pattinson have refrained from subjecting themselves to ferocious gossip throughout the entirety of their five-year romance, instead opting for a more casual and low-key approach to dating rather than the traditional red-carpet-laden route.

Indeed, one Google Image search of the couple will return only a handful of instances where the pair have been pictured together, save for the glitzy public debut at Dior’s Pre-Fall 2023 Menswear Show (hosted under the Pyramids of Giza, no less) and a follow-up appearance at the 2023 Met Gala.

However, it now seems that the British ‘It’ couple, who reportedly live together in London, is continuing this streak with a rare PDA-filled NYC outing, captured by onlooking paparazzi for our viewing pleasure.

In the image, which you can view for yourself here, Waterhouse and Patterson have deviated from their pandemic-fulled activewear wardrobe of yore, instead opting for two very different takes on casual summer wear.

Keeping within her Soho-songstress-meets-70s-Sunset-Strip uniform, Waterhouse looked to a cream waffle half-zip t-shirt accented by a psychedelic blue and white tie-dye neckline and raw-hem fringing.

The singer and actress paired her effortless top with matching slouchy trousers (which also featured fringing) and a pair of strappy dad sandals. Her signature oval-framed sunglasses completed the nonchalant street-style silhouette.

Pattinson, on the other hand, opted for a more ‘Wall Street finance bro off-duty’ look in his button-down and shorts.

Seemingly taking cues from Kendall and Roman Roy’s summer wardrobes, or more appropriately, his character from David Cronenberg’s Cosmopolis, for his own New York outing, the 37-year-old sported a red-and-white tile print button down, navy cargo shorts and a black baseball cap.

Pattinson also wore his version of dad sandals in brown Arizona Birkenstocks.

Disappearing from the public eye only to show up casually walking around in New York in looks certainly styled by yourself? Exactly why the pair are the acme of cool.
