Shailene Woodley and Emily in Paris actor Lucas Bravo have officially confirmed their relationship, sharing a series of sun-drenched snaps from a road trip through California. The Big Little Lies actress, 33, appeared in a photo carousel posted on Bravo’s Instagram, which featured the couple exploring Slab City, posing at Salvation Mountain, and attending the Stagecoach Music Festival. The two appeared relaxed and affectionate, with one image showing them in matching cowboy hats, while another captured them walking hand-in-hand through the festival crowd.

This marks the pair’s first public display of affection since they were first linked romantically in Paris back in March. Among the highlights of their trip was a picture with SOFI TUKKER’s Sophie Hawley-Weld, and several candid shots of Woodley striking playful poses in front of Salvation Mountain’s colourful murals, taken by Bravo. The actor captioned the post “Howdy Slab City”, prompting fans to express delight, with one calling it “the hard launch” of their relationship.
Woodley’s last known relationship was with NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers, to whom she was previously engaged. Speaking to Outside magazine in December, she reflected on that chapter of her life, describing it as “not right, but beautiful”. Since then, she was briefly linked to an unnamed man seen with her in New York last August, although no confirmation was ever made public.

Bravo, meanwhile, has kept his private life largely out of the spotlight. However, in a past interview with Glamour, the French actor revealed he had recently come out of a three-year relationship with an unnamed actress. Known for his role as Gabriel, Emily’s main love interest in the Netflix hit Emily in Paris, Bravo also shared that open communication is essential for him in a relationship, expressing a strong dislike for emotional avoidance or silent treatment.
