Love is in the air for young actress Elle Fanning as she recently shared a sweet Valentine's Day tribute to her boyfriend, Gus Wenner, on Instagram. The 25-year-old actress posted a photo of Wenner relaxing on a boat, wearing stylish sunglasses. Fanning captioned the photo, 'My funny Valentine,' while Wenner responded with '❤️.'
Although it's unclear when Fanning and Wenner started dating, they made their first public appearance as a couple at the prestigious Golden Globe Awards last month. The pair seemed happy and comfortable together as they walked the red carpet.
Wenner, who is the CEO of Rolling Stone magazine, marked Fanning's debut on his Instagram feed by sharing a series of photos showing them attending the Globes ceremony. Fanning affectionately responded to the post with a single red heart emoji. Other famous friends also chimed in with compliments, such as Lorde, who called them 'cutie cutie cutie cutie cuties,' and Dianna Agron, who left a string of heart emojis. Scout Willis added, 'The most gorgeous couple!!,' along with three heart-eye emojis.
Following their appearance at the Golden Globes, Fanning and Wenner attended the afterparty hosted by Vas Morgan and Michael Braun in Los Angeles. This public outing further solidified their relationship as they enjoyed a night out together.
Prior to dating Wenner, Fanning was in a long-term relationship with Handmaid's Tale star Max Minghella. The couple met on the set of the 2018 film Teen Spirit and were spotted together in London, sparking romance rumors. However, in an interview with Harper's Bazaar U.K. in April 2023, Fanning confirmed their breakup, revealing that they had recently ended their relationship. Despite this, Fanning remains a self-proclaimed hopeless romantic, believing in love at first sight and holding onto the belief that love is her destiny.
As fans of Elle Fanning, it's heartwarming to see her find love once again. Her affectionate Valentine's Day tribute to Gus Wenner reminds us all of the power of love and the happiness it can bring. We wish this beautiful couple all the best as they continue their journey together.
