Justin Long Confirms Relationship with Girlfriend Kate Bosworth, Calls Her ‘The One’
Justin Long and Kate Bosworth were recently spotted having romantic dinner.
Justin Long’s relationship with his girlfriend Kate Bosworth has finally been confirmed.
On Monday, April 4, 2022, the American actor appeared on Bachelor alum Nick Viall’s podcast, The Viall Files, where he talked about his relationship with Bosworth and called her “The One.”
He mentioned that he had gotten to a place where he was ready to be comfortable with himself. But, he was also prepared for “The One.” Long’s complete statement read:
“I had gotten to a place where… I was comfortable with myself, I was ready to be — I didn’t know it at the time — but I was ready for the one.”
In addition, he said that he met and found the one. “And the one I had met… I had found.”
As he went on, the Going the Distance actor added that he prefers to keep his relationship with Bosworth low-key as neither of them wants to share every small detail with everyone.
Long said he wants to share details about his relationship, but it’s weird as he also wants to be protective. “I want to scream it from the rooftops, but I also want to be protective. It’s sacred,” he further added.
In the end, he stated, “In this day in age, we don’t have to share everything. I’m so happy.”
While the 43-year-old Connecticut native talked quite much about his current relationship, he didn’t exactly name Bosworth as his girlfriend. And it seems like they will be keeping something hidden for a while.
Nonetheless, everything is already out in public. Just a day before Long gushed about his relationship, on Sunday, April 3, he and Bosworth were caught holding hands after their romantic dinner at Giorgio Baldi.
DailyMail revealed several exclusive images of the couple as they walked side-by-side and headed back to their car from the Santa Monica-based Italian eatery. The actor wore dark-wash jeans, a light grey button-down, and an olive green bomber jacket.
On the other hand, the 39-year-old actress looked stunning in a “black minidress with a bow on the straps,” accompanied by matching heels.

Long and Bosworth first met in early 2021 in Fayetteville, Arkansas, while working together on an unnamed project. On May 12, 2021, the actress shared several snaps from their time together via Instagram and was full of praises for her now-boyfriend.
Bosworth’s Instagram post full of praises for Long came just three months before announcing her separation from her husband, Michael Polish. The two had been married for almost eight years – tied the knots on August 31, 2013.
In late December 2021, Long confirmed he has a girlfriend while talking with actress Fortune Feimster on his Life Is Short with Justin Long podcast. The host and the guest were having a conversation about favorite pizza toppings.
When Feimster mentioned that her favorite pizza topping is pineapple, Long said, “People have been saying that lately. It’s funny, my girlfriend said hers is — she loves the pineapple, too. I’ve never been with anyone who likes pineapple on pizza.”

At the time, too, Long didn’t identify who his girlfriend was. However, multiple sources told Page Six that she was Bosworth. An insider also mentioned that Long was with Bosworth on her trip to Pädaste Manor in Estonia in the fall, and they had “spent a romantic weekend.”
Another source told US Weekly, “They’ve been dating for a few months now. They secretly have been on a few getaways together. They both love to travel.”
The same source told US Weekly in January 2022, “The actors are not hiding the fact that they’re together, [they are] just staying low-key and private about their relationship.
Justin Long’s dating history
While it has now been mentioned that Bosworth was formerly married, let’s look at Long’s dating history — he has never been married.
Long’s first and most known relationship was with Drew Barrymore, an actress plus talk show host. The now-former love birds first met while working together in 2009’s rom-com movie He’s Just Not That Into You.
Their togetherness reportedly started in 2007 and ended in 2010. But, they weren’t in a relationship for three years in total as it was an on-off relationship. Yet, even after their romance ended, they maintained a good friendship.
“We are in touch. I love Drew,” Long told US Weekly in May 2019. They had even sparked romance talks again after meeting each other in a New York City hotel. But, the speculations weren’t true.
As mentioned earlier, Long and Barrymore’s relationship was on-off. During one of that periods, in 2008, the actor was rumored to be dating actress Kirsten Dunst. DailyMail reported that they were seen having lunch at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles.
Nonetheless, those rumors were never confirmed. Later, in the Summer of 2013, Long started dating Amanda Seyfried. The actress had told Vogue that Long’s sense of humor was a major turn-on for her.

However, their togetherness lasted for merely two years as they split in September 2015. A source told People, “They both tried very hard to make it work because they each wanted to eventually have a family, but ultimately they weren’t compatible and decided to split up. They are still on good terms and friends.”
Similarly, reports suggest that Long was in an alleged relationship with CHVRCHES singer Lauren Mayberry from 2016 to 2018. But, Mayberry shut down the talks when she told Lenny Letter that Long was her friend — not boyfriend.
In addition, Long has been linked to a few more ladies: Olga Kurylenko (in 2003), Kaitlin Doubleday (from 2005 to 2007), and Maggie Q (in 2007).

The Bachelor’s Aly Jacobs Gets Engaged to Longtime Boyfriend
The duo has been dating since early 2023.
Congratulations to Alyssa Danielle Jacobs, also known as Aly Jacobs, who recently got engaged to her longtime boyfriend, whose identity is yet to be revealed.
The 28-year-old former contestant of The Bachelor revealed her engagement to her boyfriend in a romantic Instagram post on Monday, August 5, 2024. She shared a series of pictures alongside her future husband while flaunting her engagement ring.
In the first picture, she was seen sitting in her fiance’s lap, as her partner delivered a sweet kiss on her cheeks. Jacobs seemed to be donning a red outfit; however, it isn’t clear as she had covered herself with her fiance’s coat.
On the other hand, her mystery fiance wore a white shirt with a navy blue suit. The second picture showed the newly engaged couple passionately kissing each other on the lips, as Jacobs upheld her hand to flaunt her stunning diamond engagement ring.

Similarly, the third and last picture she added was a selfie her now-fiance took on their first date at Bones Restaurant in Atlanta. To accompany those memorable images, she wrote, “from first dates to forever, the easiest yes.”
Moments after she made the big engagement announcement, her Instagram post was filled with congratulatory messages from friends and well-wishers. For instance, one Instagram user and a friend of the couple wrote, “I knew it!! Congrats, Aly!! So happy for you two.”
“OMG!!! Yay Aly!! You deserve it all. So happy for you!” wrote another friend of the former Bachelor contestant, with one Instagram user following up with, “Congratulations!!! Such an incredible couple, so so happy for y’all!”

Likewise, one Instagram user commented, “Over the moon elated for you both!!! So happy you found your person, and above all, to see you receive the love you are so worthy and deserving of. Congratulations lovey!!!”
Jacobs and her boyfriend-turned-fiance officially began dating on February 3, 2023. However, the exact details of how they met as well as all the details about her future husband currently remains unknown, as the reality star prefers to keep them under the limelight.
That said, the first time she featured her then-boyfriend on her Instagram handle was on June 21, 2023. She shared a series of pictures with her partner from their vacation in Amelia Island and captioned it by writing, “keeping this one to myself.”
Since then, she has frequently featured her boyfriend on her social media handles. In December 2023, they spent Christmas together, and a couple of months later, on February 3, 2024, they marked their first dating anniversary.
Fast forward to August 2024, Jacobs and her partner have taken a big step in their relationship and gotten engaged. Once again, congratulations to the love birds!

Jenn Tran Responds to Hurtful Racist Message She Received over Instagram
“You’ll have to try a little harder.”
Jenn Tran, the first Asian American Bachelorette, recently addressed a racist message she received, expressing her dismay and resilience. This incident highlights the ongoing challenges of racism and the importance of standing against hate.
As The Bachelorette Season 21 – featuring Tran – continues to air weekly, Tran has been taking to her Instagram handle to bond with her fans, by asking them to send her which Taylor Swift song they believe applies to that week’s episode.
After going through all the suggestions, she picks one and officially names the one song as the “song of the week” after the episode airs. Some of Swift’s songs that have been picked during the past few weeks are ‘Sparks Fly,’ ‘Karma,’ ‘State of Grace,’ and ‘Jump Then Fall.’
On Monday, August 5, 2024, the fifth episode of The Bachelorette Season 21 aired, and as custom, Tran took to her Instagram story to ask her fans which Taylor Swift song applies to this week’s episode. However, one particular response wasn’t what Tran was expecting.

It’s because that response was targeted toward Tran’s ethnicity. This hateful and racist response targeted the reality star’s Asian roots, mentioning the shape of her eyes and her ability to “see” if they are “barely open.”
Tran immediately decided to shut down this racist message and clapped back via her Instagram story. First, she wrote, “First of all, not on Taylor Swift song day!!! How rude!” She then followed up with, “Second of all, if you’re gonna make a racist comment to hurt me, you’ll have to try a little harder than with something I’ve been hearing since I was a kid.”
Despite the hurtful message, she remains focused on her journey as the Bachelorette. She continues to approach her role with positivity and determination, demonstrating resilience in the face of adversity.
As the first Asian American Bachelorette, Tran has faced unique pressures and responsibilities. In an earlier interview with Bachelor Nation, she discussed the significance of her role, expressing her desire to be a positive role model.
In the interview, she shared her thoughts on the pressures of being the first Asian American Bachelorette. She acknowledged the weight of expectations but emphasized her commitment to staying true to herself and her story. Jenn expressed gratitude for the opportunity to represent her ethnicity and inspire others.
She stated, “Of course I feel pressure. A lot of it actually comes from me wanting to be a good role model and do it ‘right,’ whatever that means. At the end of the day, I tell myself that it’s just about being myself and telling my story the best that I can.”
Her journey as the Bachelorette is not only about finding love but also about breaking barriers and promoting inclusivity. Her grace and strength continue to inspire many, and her stance against racism sets a powerful example for her audience and beyond.

Shanae Ankney and Future Husband Nate Ebner Celebrate Second Anniversary
Congratulations to the two!
Shanae Ankney is relishing all the days before she officially becomes a wife to her boyfriend-turned-fiance Nate Ebner.
One such day was Ankney and Ebner’s second dating anniversary. On Tuesday, July 30, 2024, the Bachelor in Paradise alum took to her Instagram handle to mark the special occasion.
She posted a PDA-filled picture of herself and her partner, where they were sweetly kissing each other. The image was taken on the sidewalk, in front of what seems to be a small restaurant or a diner.
It means that the love birds went to get some alone time and celebrate their special milestone. Alongside the picture, she wrote a sweet caption, reading, “Love is spelled T-I-M-E. Happy two years my love. I can’t wait to share your last name.”
Some moments later, friends and well-wishers took to the comment section to pour congratulatory messages. One Instagram user wrote, “You were our favorite ever from the bachelor franchise, sooo happy to see you found your happily ever after!!!”
“So happy for y’all. May God bless you and your little family,” wrote another Instagram user. Similarly, a friend of the engaged duo commented, “Yay!!! Can’t wait to hear all about it!!”
Likewise, one doubter, who didn’t believe Ankney and Ebner’s relationship would last this long, took to the comment section and wrote, “I can’t believe it lasted this long. I was wrong. I thought he would leave within 3 months.”
Well, while there might have been some doubts about Ankney and her boyfriend’s relationship during its initial phase, those doubts went away as their bond strengthened. One of the main reasons behind their relationship’s strength was when they welcomed a baby.
Speaking from the start, the 32-year-old Ankney – whose birth name is Shanae Irene Ankney – officially began dating Ebner on July 30, 2022. However, she initially kept their relationship a secret and also didn’t feature him on her socials.

On November 11, 2022, she soft-launched her relationship with the former NFL player. She had posted the same picture as the one in her second dating anniversary post, except only Ebner’s arm was visible in the 2022 Instagram post.
On April 10, 2023, she officially hard-launched their relationship via Instagram. Less than a year later, on October 23, 2023, Ankney took to her Instagram handle to announce that she was pregnant with a baby girl and her due date was April 2024.
On April 11, 2024, she gave birth to an adorable daughter, whom the couple named Maven Jane. She publicly announced the good news on April 15, captioning her post, “Maven Jane 🤍 4•11•2024 🤍 you were worth the wait my sweet girl.”
A month after welcoming their baby girl, the boyfriend-girlfriend duo got engaged. On May 16, 2024, The Bachelor alum revealed that Ebner went down on his knee and proposed to her, to which she gladly accepted.

She shared a picture of her holding her baby girl, while flaunting her engagement ring, and wrote, “I can’t wait to do it all with you Nate, you make me the happiest girl alive. Here’s to FOREVER. I love you!”
As mentioned earlier, Ankney and her partner have been together for a little over two years. In the time they have spent together, they have welcomed a baby and gotten engaged. And the wedding bells might also be ringing soon. We wish the couple nothing but the best!
