According to E! News, the couple celebrated Nyong’o’s 41st birthday on a steamy vacation in Vallarta, Mexico.
Lupita Nyong’o And Joshua Jackson Are Officially An Item
Rumors started swirling around the pair almost five months ago when they were spotted together at Janelle Monae’s LA concert after their breakups with Selema Masekela and Jodie Turner-Smith.
But on March 3, there was no longer any need for rumors.
The pair were spotted on the beach, holding hands and taking a romantic walk on the Mexican coast.
At some point, the couple ran into the waves after taking each other’s hand.
And as the temperature soared, so did their passion: they shared an intense kiss.
But their romantic getaway had started earlier, on her March 1st birthday.
45-year-old Joshua surprised her with a huge balloon display and a breathtaking bouquet of flowers in their hotel suite.
The couple also had some R&R in the resort’s spa, and an eyewitness revealed how in love they appeared.
“They looked madly in love, like they just couldn’t get enough of one another.”
This is a refreshing time for the couple, as their past relationships didn’t work out.
On October 2, Jodie Turner-Smith filed for divorce from Joshua after four years of marriage.
Their split was relatively amicable, especially compared to how messy celebrity divorces can get.
“Sometimes things we really want to work just don’t end up working, and that’s OK. The most important thing is that you choose what’s healthiest for you and your family and definitely your children.” Jodie Turner-Smith
“There are so many different moments in our life where we look at ourselves and say, ‘Who am I and am I being true to that?’ If the answer is no, then you have to make a move because I believe that there are visible scars from staying in places that are not good for us. And they don’t just affect us, they affect everybody around us.”
