Young blood: the brightest love stories worth following
Their names already occupy the first lines in the Forbes lists, they are role models for girls and boys all over the world, the best directors, designers and producers of our time want to work with them, and most importantly, everyone dreams of the same dizzying love story.
We talk about young and successful couples that are worth following.
SELENA GOMEZ AND THE WEEKND
Many still do not take the couple of Selena and rapper The Weeknd (Abel Tesfaye) seriously. The news that they were together haunted the girl’s fans for a long time, as well as Justin Bieber and, of course, Bella Hadid, with whom Abel actually broke up because of Gomez. But they seem to be really happy: the young people no longer hide their feelings - they recently appeared together at the Met Gala and in every interview they say that they inspire each other.
Before meeting Abel, Gomez was struggling with an exacerbation of a chronic illness (lupus), almost did not appear on stage, did not communicate with fans, and was angry with Bieber. And next to her new lover, as fans note, she blossomed: first she gave a touching and motivating speech at the AMA, then she changed her image, posed for several covers and almost finished writing a new album. It looks like one of the most talked about couples of the year has a bright future ahead of them.
GIGI HADID AND ZAYN MALIK
For the first time, people started talking about the romance between the famous model and the former member of One Direction in November 2020, after they left the 2020 American Music Awards ceremony together. And a few weeks later, Zayn confirmed his relationship with Gigi by posting a photo of them together on Instagram. By the way, they met at Kendall Jenner’s birthday party and at first they were just friends.
They don’t appear together at events very often—Zane prefers to stay at home—but they often record joint videos in Stories and constantly fuel rumors about an imminent wedding. The couple is also united by a love of fashion: for example, Zayn recently became the face of the Versus SS17 collection, and Gigi acted as the photographer for this advertising campaign.
MILEY CYRUS AND LIAM HEMSWORTH
Miley and Liam met on the set of the melodrama “The Last Song” in 2009. And soon the paparazzi noticed a wedding ring on Cyrus’s ring finger. The lovers were preparing for the wedding, when suddenly Miley decided to dramatically change her image and began to create outrages on stage. Liam couldn't stand it and broke off the engagement.
But early last year the couple reunited again. Whether they got married or not is unknown: the lovers do not comment on their relationship, but they are rightfully considered one of the most beautiful young couples in Hollywood.
LILY-ROSE DEPP AND ASH STAYMEST
The daughter of Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis is only 17 years old, but the whole world is already crazy about her. In addition, young Lily is famous not only for her advertising contracts, but also for her loud statements. For example, last year she admitted to bisexuality, however, immediately after that she began dating 24-year-old actor and model Ash Stymest. The girl almost immediately introduced her boyfriend to her parents, and if Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis had nothing against the fact that their lover was 7 years older than their daughter, then the presence of Ash’s ex-wife and daughter embarrassed them. True, a little later the young man nevertheless proved to Lily’s star parents that his feelings for her were sincere, and the girl herself even became friends with his five-year-old daughter. While they do not appear at high-profile events together, paparazzi have repeatedly photographed the couple jogging together, having dinner or leaving the cinema. And in the near future, according to sources, the young model will move in with her lover.
Anwar Hadid and Nikola Peltz
The 17-year-old heir to millionaire Mohamed Hadid and model Yolanda is not yet as famous as Bella and Gigi, but he is already adored by the whole world. Anwar's beloved, 25-year-old actress and, part-time, daughter of billionaire Nicola Peltz, is from an equally respected family, so their union promises to become one of the most discussed. They have been dating for about six months, and first came out in February - at the Tommy Hilfiger show.
The couple does not hide their feelings: Anwar gives his beloved flowers almost every day (which they share on social networks), they prefer to spend time at home rather than in bars or walking around the city. By the way, Peltz’s boyfriend even comes to the set. It seems that the status of one of the most beautiful couples is just around the corner.
JOE JONAS AND SOPHIE TURNER
The romance between Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner and musician Joe Jonas became known in early November: then the young people were spotted flirting during the MTV European Music Awards ceremony in Rotterdam. After this, pictures of the couple together appeared on the Internet several times, although for a long time they did not confirm the relationship. And three months later, Turner posted a photo with Joe on Instagram and wrote: “It’s better to see once than to hear a hundred times,” thereby answering all the questions about her personal life. Joe and Sophie have not yet appeared together at official events and have not commented on their feelings for each other, but judging by the paparazzi pictures, their romance is in full swing.
EMMA WATSON AND WILLIAM KNIGHT
At the beginning of last year, Emma Watson, about whose personal life little was known, suddenly began to appear more and more often in the company of a tanned, broad-shouldered handsome man. Later it turned out that this is a “computer genius” (as the media call him) William Knight, who works as a senior manager at Medallia - the annual income of the actress’s handsome and intelligent chosen one is estimated at 150 thousand dollars. Of course, compared to Watson’s ten million, this cannot be compared, but it seems that the girl is delighted with her lover. Moreover, she has repeatedly spoken about her reluctance to connect her life with a man in the creative profession. Apparently, this is why Knight turned out to be the ideal candidate for her heart. The young people have been together for about a year, and they say Emma will soon move from London straight to the New York penthouse of a computer genius.
Nicola Peltz now
In the summer of 2020, the US premiered the science-fiction horror film Our House by Anthony Scott Burns, starring Nicola Peltz and Thomas Mann. It is known that Nicola will appear in the drama directed by Jeffrey Scott Collins under the working title Above the Line. The plot of the film is still unknown, but the cast has been announced: in addition to Nicola, the film will star Taryn Manning (Tiffany “Pennsatucky” Doggett in the TV series “Orange is the New Black”), Thomas Middleditch and a black comedian known under the pseudonym “The Entertainer.”
