Emily Ratajkowski has confirmed a new relationship after sharing affectionate photographs with French filmmaker Romain Gavras on Instagram.

The 34-year-old model and author posted a series of images on February 19, including a picture of Gavras holding her around the waist and cradling her head. Another photograph showed the pair seated side by side, while a final image captured their trainers touching from a point-of-view angle. The post also included solo shots of Ratajkowski relaxing in a bathrobe and walking in the snow.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Although she did not tag him in the caption-less upload, Gavras was identified as her new partner. 

In November last year, the couple were spotted together, engaging in PDA around the streets of New York. Throughout the night, the pair were pictured embracing each other lovingly.

Ratajkowski separated from film producer Sebastian Bear-McClard in 2022 after four years of marriage.

The former couple married in 2018 and share a four-year-old son, Sylvester Apollo. Since the separation, Ratajkowski has spoken publicly about divorce and independence.

Gavras is French filmmaker who recently debuted his star-studded movie Sacrifice at the Toronto Film Festival.

He was formerly linked to Dua Lipa and made his debut as a couple with her on a film festival red carpet in 2023.
