5 months after going public, Shailene Woodley and her boyfriend, Ben Volavola, have decided to take the step by walking the red carpet as a couple for the first time.
The couple made their appearance at the actress’ movie premiere for “Adrift” at Regal L.A. Live Stadium 14 in Los Angeles on Wednesday (23rd May). Woodley, 26, wore a low-cut silver Rochas gown, while her Fijian rugby player beau, 27, opted for a navy suit over a partially unbuttoned white dress shirt.
“I will remember this movie as the movie that reminded me why I love to do what I do. Every project adds something to your passion list, but this one changed my life. This one really shifted a lot of paradigms that I had surrounding Mother Nature, surrounding human will and surrounding love,” the actress told US Magazine.
Fans first took notice of Woodley and Volavola’s romance when they were spotted kissing each other at a sports event. As per E! News, the couple first met in Fiji while the “Divergent” star was filming “Adrift”.
The A-lister first made her relationship status public when she shared a photo of them kissing on her Instagram stories. Pictures do speak a thousand words, don’t they?
In a previous interview with Elle, Woodley said, “I fall in love with people based on who they are. When you’re truly in love, for me, it’s…you’re my lighthouse! You’re somebody who holds me high, keeps me safe, you’ve got my f–kin’ back…You also love me whole, wild, and free. You let me do me, and I’m gonna let you do you! And I’ll be the home that you return to.”
