Robert Pattinson and Suki Waterhouse Are the Most Beautiful Couple at the Met Gala 2023: The Full Story of Their “Quiet” Love

The actors first started talking about the romance in July 2018, when paparazzi photos appeared in the press, in which Robert and Sookie strolled through London, holding hands and kissing. The stars themselves were in no rush to comment on their relationship, so insiders had to take the rap first. Well, they competed in passion between Pattinson and Waterhouse: before the novel, they already knew each other and managed to get to know each other well. Moreover, both grew up in South West London, listened to the same music and didn’t seek to be constantly in the public eye at all.

Before feelings erupted between them, Robert was engaged to FKA Twigs (they broke off the engagement in late 2017) and Suki dated Bradley Cooper and James Marsden.

The couple continued to be seen together either at a party, leaving the club or on a morning run around London. But both remained silent. In the summer of 2019, reporters notice that Waterhouse, backstage at the Moschino 2020 Resort Womenswear/Spring Menswear show, calls Rob via video link, and their conversation is quite similar to the conversation of lovers who miss each other from afar. For example, one eyewitness said that when Pattinson responded, he asked, “Where are you, baby?” Waterhouse then showed Pattinson her outfit and “they both laughed.” According to a source, the couple “seemed very happy and in love.”

In early 2020, engagement rumors surface when Sookie shows off the ring on that finger at one of the events. And already in May 2020, Robert indirectly confirms that he spent quarantine with Waterhouse in a London apartment, which was provided to him during the filming of Batman. This admission coincides with the publication in the press of a photo of Robert and Sookie leaving a grocery store in Notting Hill together. So no one doubted which girl the actor was talking about in an interview.

Insiders said the pair were simply inseparable, and in October 2020, there were rumors that Waterhouse got the Pattinson family’s approval.

“They think Rob and Sookie are a great couple. And it’s better than any of his previous relationships,” the source said.

The speculation was soon again confirmed by regular photos. The paparazzi caught the couple out for a walk with Pattinson’s parents, and on Sookie’s selfie, attentive followers saw a framed photo with Rob.

In November 2021, the stars were already registered – they met for three years and all this time they not only did not comment on their relationship, but did not even officially go out together. It seems that Rob and Sookie are sure that happiness loves silence.

But the couple’s first outing was such that it was definitely worth the wait! The actors appeared on the red carpet together in December 2022. It happened at the Dior show in Egypt. Sookie and Robert just radiated happiness and tenderness towards each other. This was the best answer for those who didn’t believe that strong relationships require social media photos and endless interviews about love.

In February 2023, Sookie and Rob bought a house together in the Hollywood Hills for $5.3 million, which seems like another indication of just how bad things are. After that, Waterhouse decided to openly discuss the relationship with Pattinson in an interview, and here the very last cynics should have been touched.

The actress admitted she just doesn’t believe she’s been happy in the same relationship for five years now, and also noted that her heart always skips a beat every time she sees a message from Robert on the phone screen – and he felt the same when Sookie wrote to him.

It seems that the actors, however, found kindred spirits in each other, and isn’t that the main thing in a truly harmonious and stable relationship. Instead of being sprayed with media noise, PR scandals and staged photos, which many Hollywood stars sin, Rob and Sookie have spent all their time and attention solely on themselves. They didn’t seek to stir up public interest, exchange comments, or chase after likes.

Yes, and why extra words – just see how he looks at her!
