Renee Zellweger sparks engagement rumors with boyfriend Ant Anstead after Bridget Jones premiere
The 55-year-old actress attended the London premiere of
Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy
on Wednesday, wearing a striking fuchsia pink gown. However, attention shifted to her left hand, where two bandages covered her ring finger, prompting speculation that a ring might be concealed beneath.
Zellweger and Anstead, 45, have been in a relationship since 2021. Though Anstead did not walk the red carpet, the couple was later seen leaving the afterparty together at Brasserie Zedel, displaying affectionate gestures.
Anstead, who is based in Southern California, shares a five-year-old son, Hudson, with his ex-wife, television personality Christina Haack. He also has two older children, Amelie, 21, and Archie, 18, from his previous marriage to Louise Anstead.
Zellweger recently shared insights into their relationship in an interview with
British Vogue
, mentioning that she resides near San Diego to be close to Anstead and his son.
Fans have previously speculated about a possible secret marriage after Anstead referred to Zellweger as his 'missus' in multiple social media posts. In July 2023,
The US Sun
reported that the couple was planning a private wedding, with sources describing their relationship as strong and committed.
Zellweger was previously married to country singer Kenny Chesney for four months in 2005. She was also engaged to actor Jim Carrey from 1999 to 2000 and has been linked to actor Bradley Cooper.
Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy
is set to release in theaters on February 14, 2025.

Iftikhar expressed his excitement and gratitude, for being granted permission to adapt and stage this masterpiece. "I'm sharing this news with immense pride and gratitude that I've been formally granted permission by John Patrick Shanley — the Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright and Academy Award-winning screenwriter — to translate, adapt and stage his masterpiece theatre play, Doubt: A Parable, for the Islamabad audience in Urdu," he shared. The play, "Doubt: A Parable", was written by American playwright John Patrick Shanley in 2004. It was adapted into a mystery thriller film titled "Doubt" in 2008, starring Hollywood's renowned actress Meryl Streep. The film received critical acclaim and showcased the powerful story and themes of the play.

Set in a small-town school in Punjab, the play raises questions about truth, silence and the grey areas in between. With its suspenseful plot and impactful characters, this production promises to be a thought-provoking experience for the audience. Imran Iftikhar further added, "This is not just a milestone for me as a director and translator but a historic moment for Pakistani theatre. To my knowledge, this is the first time a Pulitzer Prize-winning play is being officially produced in Pakistan. Bringing this globally acclaimed work to our local stage is a huge responsibility — and an opportunity to elevate the standards of theatre productions in the region." He hopes that "this production will open new doors for international theatre in Pakistan and spark critical conversations about ethics, education and truth." Chand Nagar Cultural Centre is dedicated to telling bold, thought-provoking, and relevant stories through theatre and arts in Islamabad and Rawalpindi. The play is translated into Urdu by Adil Yousaf, directed by Imran Iftikhar and features a cast of young theatre actors from the twin cities.
