It looks like Hollywood’s golden couple, Robert Pattinson and Suki Waterhouse, may be getting hitched. The Hollywood actor and fashion designer were spotted leaving church on Sunday (December 9) in England with their arms around one another. The 50-year-old actor wore a black suit with a white shirt and carried a black Louis Vuitton handbag. Meanwhile, Waterhouse sported a white dress with a sweetheart neckline and wore a Louis Vuitton clutch.
On Saturday, Waterhouse attended the Victoria and Albert Museum’s (V&A) annual Panthere Ball in London. The 28th annual event, designed to celebrate the splendors of ballroom dancing, was themed ‘Dazzling Dresses and Fabulous Fights’ and featured stunning dresses by some of the world’s top fashion designers.
The designer Louis Vuitton and its designer son Louis Vuitton Men’s Artistry Autumn-Winter 2019 collection were the featured designers at the annual event. The younger Louis Vuitton described the theme of the night as “the golden era of ballroom dancing” and “the link between dance and fashion.”
The designer Miu Miu, who also designed the ballroom for the event, said: “Dancing is a metaphor for life. It is about expressing emotions and showing who you are through your body.”
The designer Rebecca Taylor added: “It’s all about celebrating the elegance of the dancers’ movements and enjoying the grace of each other’s company. Dance is about expressing joy and passion. It is about connection and expressing individuality.”
The London Evening Standard reports that Waterhouse wore a custom-made dress made by designer Rebecca Taylor, while Pattinson opted for a black suit and white shirt. The twosome were later sighted holding hands as they arrived at an exclusive members-only restaurant in London’s West End.
The publication reports that Waterhouse is “said to have attended several meetings with Pattinson with a view to marrying him.” However, a representative for the actor has since denied this, telling journalists: “It’s not true. They are just good friends who share a mutual interest in each other’s work.”
The tabloid also suggests that Waterhouse, who is reportedly worth £35.2 million, may be using her designer connections to help secure investments for her newly formed production company, Beachwood Ltd.
The business goal of the company, according to the U.K.’s The Sunday Times, is to launch “an investment fund that will provide opportunities for artists and designers to grow their businesses.”
The paper adds that Beachwood is currently in talks with various financial institutions about launching a joint-stock company that will provide loans and investments to creative businesses.
A ‘True Artists Colony’ In London
Aside from their professional relationship, Pattinson and Waterhouse have been spotted enjoying some private time together. On Saturday, they were photographed arriving at London’s Victoria Station holding hands while walking toward a nearby taxi. The couple were also seen sharing a tender kiss as they arrived at the ballroom of the Savoy Hotel.
Waterhouse has previously spoken about her desire to create a “true artists’ colony” in London, where she can live with her family and be close to her friends. Although the designer hasn’t revealed any further details about the project, it would appear that she is making good on that desire with Pattinson by her side.
A Private Ceremony For Pattinson And Waterhouse
While the couple have been linked for years, it looks like they may have finally decided to put a ring on it. According to Page Six, preparations are underway for an intimate ceremony in 2021 for Pattinson and Waterhouse. A source close to the matter said: “Suki and Robert have known each other for years but had always been determined to wait till they were both settled in their careers before committing. Once they have both established themselves, they will marry. It’s a very private ceremony and they want it to be something to remember.”
If their reported romance is anything to go by, it would appear these two have found a way to make their professional and personal lives work together. With the help of their respective designers, Louis Vuitton and Rebecca Taylor, they have crafted a way of life that seems to suit them both.
