Before diving into the whirlwind of filming for “Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy,” Renee Zellweger embarked on a delightful day trip with her real-life partner.
Zellweger’s off-screen romance with Ant Anstead seems to mirror the charm of her on-screen adventures in the Bridget Jones series. Ahead of the fourth movie’s production, the couple made a pitstop in London, temporarily relocating for Zellweger’s filming schedule.
On Tuesday, April 30, the pair was spotted sharing a sweet kiss in public while attending Anstead’s son Archie’s rugby game. This public display of affection marks a rare appearance for the typically private couple, highlighting their bond as they support each other’s family activities.
Anstead, known for his appearances on “Celebrity IOU: Joyride,” shares two children, Archie and Amelie, with his first wife, Louis Storey, all residing in the UK. Additionally, he has a 4-year-old son named Hudson from his previous marriage to Christina Hall.
As anticipation builds for “Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy,” slated for release on Peacock and in theaters on February 14, 2025, Zellweger and Anstead’s romance adds an extra layer of excitement for fans. The fourth installment promises to deliver the same poignant humor that fans adore, with Zellweger, Hugh Grant, and Emma Thompson reprising their iconic roles.
Directed by Michael Morris, the film is set to explore new challenges in Bridget’s life, including navigating single parenthood and contemplating re-entering the dating world. With a stellar cast and a storyline inspired by Helen Fielding’s experiences, “Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy” is poised to capture hearts once again with its blend of humor and heartfelt moments.
