When your love life tends to spark as much global outcry as Harry Styles, it’s hard to keep any new love under wraps. But after being embroiled in a whirlwind tryst with supermodel Emily Ratajowski in Tokyo, rumours quickly swirled that Styles is now seeing Canadian actress Taylor Russell.
And now, in photos obtained by Page Six, Styles and Russell were seen getting quite cosy during an outing in London. After watching the actress’ performance in The Effect at the National Theatre, the singer was captured wrapping his arms around Russell and smiling and laughing with her all night. The most telling moment of all? Styles, 29, was snapped carrying his date’s bags—a gentleman in love, we say.
For those who keep up with the happenings of the fashion set, you’ll recognise the 29-year-old as the indie darling made Venice Film Festival sensation after starring across from Timothée Chalamet in Luca Guadagnino’s cannibal love story Bones And All.
The Spring of 2022 was one marked by a Russell chokehold, with the actress opening Loewe’s lauded SS/23 collection in Paris before fronting the luxuriates accompanying campaign.
Now, she’s being introduced to millions of Styles’ fans after the pair have been spotted together multiple times over the last few months.
Their latest sighting comes after Styles’ final Love On Tour concert in Vienna—a performance Russell sat in the VIP tent to watch.
Afterwards, a handful of TikTok videos posted after Styles’ concert showed the two exploring the Austrian capital together. This outing seemingly cemented the nature of their courtship as a bona fide relationship rather than just friends.
In the footage, Styles could be seen donning his signature incognito silhouette to make his way around the city centre. Like Leonardo DiCaprio and his fondness for black baseball caps, Styles sported a pair of black Wayfarer sunglasses, a navy bomber jacket, beige cargo shorts and white Converse.
Indeed the classic Styles off-duty style.
Russell cut a similar covert figure in an all-black look. Aside from being spotted walking side-by-side with Styles, Russell was identified by her trademark flipped bob.
In another video, seemingly taken later in the day, Russell could be seen wearing a white linen maxi dress with an inverted oversized collar, an apt look to deal with the current heatwave.
Russell and Styles first sparked dating rumours after being spotted at London’s White Cube art gallery in the Thames-side suburb of Bermondsey back in June. Given Russell and Styles’ consecutive sightings, there could be some credence to the relationship rumours.
After all, Styles did tell he has a penchant for actresses in Harry’s House, even revealing he digs their cinema and certain “pops” when getting intimate.
