Honey Ross and her boyfriend Gav Murphy cosied up on the red carpet at The Dog Stars premiere in London on Thursday. The 29-year-old influencer and 40-year-old video producer attended the screening at Odeon Leicester Square, looking happier than ever as their romance continues from strength to strength.
Ross showed off her curves in a white polka dot midi dress featuring a cowl neckline. She elevated her frame with a pair of chunky black heels and accessorised with gold hoop earrings. Murphy wore a smart black shirt paired with matching jeans and trainers.
The couple beamed for photos at the premiere, where leading stars Margaret Qualley and Jacob Elordi were also in attendance. Odeon Leicester Square is a landmark cinema in London's West End, frequently hosting major film premieres.
The outing comes after the couple, who struck up a romance last year, celebrated Ross's 29th birthday earlier this year. Murphy paid tribute to his partner on Instagram by sharing a series of photos of her, including images from their travels and nights out.
In his birthday message, Murphy wrote: "Penblwydd Hapus to the silliest billy in the business. You are perfect." "Penblwydd Hapus" is Welsh for happy birthday.
Red carpet debut and social media tributes
Over recent months, Murphy has shared numerous photographs documenting their relationship, including a trip to Disney World and dressing up together for Halloween. His birthday post featured photos of Ross flashing red lace lingerie under a leopard print dress, enjoying a glass of wine in a pub wearing a plunging burgundy top, and leaning on a wooden fence in red and white gingham cropped trousers with a white top.
Another photograph showed Ross planting a kiss on Murphy's cheek. The couple made their first official red carpet appearance together in August last year at the UK gala screening of the film Caught Stealing.
Since launching their romance, Ross has shared several photos of the pair on social media, with Murphy regularly leaving affectionate comments on her posts. His comments on her glamour photos include "Such a beauty," "WOW", and "Perfect girl ❤️".
On Valentine's Day, the pair headed out for a romantic meal, with Murphy sharing a photo of Ross with the caption "Oh come on now" alongside a heart-eyed emoji. During a trip to Disneyland in Florida last year, Murphy publicly displayed his adoration by wearing a T-shirt printed with her name, "HONEY ROSS".
Murphy has also received the seal of approval from Ross's parents, television presenter Jonathan Ross and his screenwriter wife Jane Goldman. A photograph from their Disneyland trip showed the parents posing with the couple while wearing matching Mickey Mouse accessories.
Gaming connections and awkward introductions
Murphy is known for his video production company and YouTube channel, RKG, which he hosts with friends Daniel Krupa and Rory Powers. The channel features content of the trio playing video games.
Ross's father Jonathan is an avid video game enthusiast and collector who established his own studio, Hotsauce Interactive, which created mobile games such as Catcha Catcha Aliens. The 63-year-old broadcaster has also collaborated with Microsoft Studios and contributed voice work to major games including Fable and Halo.
Murphy recalled meeting Ross's famous father during a Q&A video on his RKG channel in December. He described Ross's parents as "the most online parents I've ever had to deal with."
Murphy recounted an embarrassing moment when Jonathan Googled him to find his birthdate ahead of a trip: "This year, I got a new girlfriend and it is quite interesting, her parents being the most online parents I've ever had to deal with."
He added: "I remember she got a text from her dad going because I think we were going away and he had to look up the date of my birth. He searched for Gav Murphy RKG online and the first thing came up as "The Grotmeister.""
Murphy continued: "And then he started texting me as the Grot going like, "Do put Grotmeister on the airport thing?" I saw the text come through and I was just like, argh that just changes lots of things now, doesn't it?"
Murphy concluded: "Luckily he's quite grotty so it's fine."
Jonathan Ross on hygiene and daily routines
The comment referred to Jonathan Ross's previous public statements about his personal hygiene habits. In 2024, the broadcaster made headlines after comparing himself and his wife Jane to a "pair of dirty hamsters in straw" as he admitted to showering less than once a week.
Speaking on the Parenting Hell comedy podcast, hosted by Rob Beckett and Josh Widdicombe, Ross questioned the need for frequent bathing: "Do you think I give enough of a s**t about anything to bother spending any extra time on grooming whatsoever?"
Ross added: "I resent the fact that I have to shower. I sometimes go at least a week without showering, at least. So does Jane sometimes. We're like a couple of hamsters in their own straw in that bed."
Asked when he had last showered, Ross replied: "It was yesterday. Why bother doing it two days in a row, what's wrong with you? I didn't do any exercise."
The TV presenter also confessed that he once went two weeks without washing while in the Florida heat because he believed spending time in a swimming pool was sufficient, only to discover afterwards that he still smelled bad.
