KEY POINTS

  • Ant Anstead shares a kiss with Renee Zellweger in a new Instagram pic
  • They made their relationship official in August 2021
  • They first met on the set of "Celebrity IOU:Joy Ride"

Ant Anstead recently took to social media to celebrate his love for his girlfriend, Renée Zellweger, by sharing a PDA-filled photo of the couple.

Anstead shared a photo of himself with Zellweger on Instagram on Wednesday, marking the third time he has posted a moment of their relationship online since confirming their romance.

The photo showed the actor in a formal suit locking lips with Zellweger. “This lady x Ren,” he captioned the post.

While Anstead rarely posts sweet photos of him and the “Bridget Jones Diary” actress on social media, he has never tried to keep a tight lid on their relationship. Back in October, Anstead shared for the second time a photo of him and Zellweger kissing, while on a date in New Orleans.

“Wow there is something very special about New Orleans!” he wrote. “The late-night wandering, the mind-blowing history this nerd loves, the architecture, the blend of cultures, the food, the people, the smells, and noises! All made better by a magical company to share it with.” He ended his post by adding a heart emoji.

The 42-year-old British TV host made their relationship Instagram official by posting a cuddly photo of them back in August to promote his new show, “Celebrity IOU: Joy Ride,” where they first met. In the photo, Anstead had his arm wrapped around Zellweger, with Cristy Lee beside him.

“It’s finally here,” he captioned the post. “The first episode of #CelebrityIOUJoyride is available on @discoveryplus, Monday the 23rd!! And it’s the incredibly magical Renee Zellweger.”

It was later revealed that after meeting on the set of his new show, Anstead and Zellweger started going out on dates and developed feelings for each other.

In an interview with ET, Anstead said he fell for Zellweger’s kindness. “I’m a big believer that people resonate with kindness. When you actually look back at relationships you have with your family, your friends, it’s those small moments, those sort of hidden messages, that actually speak the most,” he said, saying it’s Zellweger’s small gestures of kindness that made him fall for her.
