Lupita Nyong'o And Joshua Jackson Enjoy Fun Day On The Beach With PDA

After months of dating speculation, it appears these two are no longer hiding their relationship.

While spring hasn't officially sprung, Lupita Nyong'o and Joshua Jackson are springing ahead with their relationship.

Following months of speculation, it's time to put the rumors to rest because these two are dating. To bring in her 41st trip around the sun, the "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" star was captured on a beach in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico with Jackson. In the images obtained by E! News, the duo are seen packing on the PDA.

For their sun-filled day on the beach, Nyong'o rocked a sexy pattern bikini, while the "Dawson's Creek" alum wore a pair of dark swim trunks.

In the photos, they are seen strolling on the sand while holding hands and smiling, and in another frame, the twosome are captured running into the waves together.

There is also a steamy photo of Nyong'o and Jackson embraced in a close hug as she caresses the back of his head while he wraps his hands around her waist.

OK, Lupita!

News of their vacation comes after they were spotted sitting next to each other at a Janelle Monáe concert in October 2023. Days before that outing, Nyong'o announced her split from boyfriend Selema Masekela in a post on Instagram.

“While not dropping Masekela’s name, she wrote, “At this moment, it is necessary for me to share a personal truth and publicly dissociate myself from someone I can no longer trust…”

She continued, “I share this to keep it 💯, and hoping that the knowledge of my experience might be useful to someone else out there experiencing the grip of heartbreak who is poised to try and escape from the pain and miss out on the wisdom that comes from it.”

Weeks before Nyong'o's breakup, Jodie Turner-Smith filed for divorce from her then-husband Jackson, citing "irreconcilable differences" after nearly four years of marriage. They are parents to a 3-year-old daughter that she is seeking shared custody with, as reported by PEOPLE.
