Robert Pattinson and Suki Waterhouse are among the more private couples of Hollywood, but their sweetness and chemistry are heartwarmingly apparent.
The actor and singer met through mutual friends and were reportedly first linked back in 2018. Since then, they have jumped into a low-key though evidently serious relationship that has yielded a slew of romantic dates, casual outings, sweet public statements, engagement rumors, and, as of this weekend, a glamorously affectionate red-carpet debut.
Here, we're tracking all the couple's latest sightings and moments. Ahead, see highlights from the pair's love story of four years and counting, and continue to watch this space for updates.

December 3, 2022: They make their official red-carpet debut.
For the first time in their now four-year relationship, the pair walk the red carpet as a couple while attending the Dior fall 2023 menswear show in Giza, Egypt. In photos captured from the evening, the two look as happy and in love as ever in coordinating neutral ensembles: the singer in a semi-sheer mauve floor-length gown and Pattinson in a dapper cream-colored suit paired with a brown turtleneck.
"Will never forgot this show, under the stars and in front of the Pyramids of Giza, one of the Seven Wonders of the World," Waterhouse later writes on Instagram.

February 2022: Pattinson opens up about Waterhouse in rare interviews.
During his March 2022 cover interview with GQ, published February 8, Pattinson reveals an amusing story about how Waterhouse once teasingly indulged their repairman—a big DC Comics fan—about the actor's starring role in The Batman. "He just randomly started talking about what a DC fan he is," Pattinson recalls of the interaction. "And I'm sitting there facing the other direction, and my girlfriend just keeps continuing the conversation with him. And I'm looking at her like: 'Shut the fuck up!'"
He continues, "'Why are you doing this to me?' She was very entertaining. Just talking to an obsessive fan."
Later in the month, Pattinson also shares on Jimmy Kimmel Live! that he watched The Batman for the first time alongside Waterhouse and that her sweet, heartfelt reaction to the film "kind of changed the entire thing."
"I'm pretty sure she's not normally into watching superhero movies," he tells host Kimmel. "And just seeing that it was capturing her attention the entire time, and then she held my hand and touched it [to her face] and I could feel a little tear. And I was like, 'No way!'"
July 2021: Waterhouse slams a joke about their relationship.
Waterhouse publicly calls out HBO Max's Gossip Girl reboot for making a joke about her relationship with Pattinson during a line on the show. "When are you going to get it? As far as the press is concerned, he’s R-Patz and you're Suki Nobody," Luna (Zión Moreno) says in a scene with Zoya (Whitney Peak).
In a since-deleted tweet, the actress writes, "Seeing critiques of patriarchy and sexism, then I get name checked as somebody's 'nobody' girlfriend. Make it make sense!"

January 2020: Engagement rumors swirl.

May 2019: They're spotted on multiple intimate dates.
The two celebrate the actor's 33rd birthday on May 13 with a romantic dinner at the Chateau Marmont restaurant in Los Angeles. For a period of the evening, they are also seen hanging out with actor Tom Sturridge, according to People.
Weeks later, on May 31, the pair go on a double date with Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn at San Vicente Bungalows in Hollywood, where the two couples are seen "laughing and talking," per an onlooker via Us Weekly.
April 28, 2019: Pattinson officially acknowledges their relationship.
Pattinson publicly references Waterhouse for the first time in an interview with The Sunday Times, during which he expresses his desire to keep their relationship private.
Throughout the conversation, Pattinson opens up about his previous romances with Kristen Stewart and FKA Twigs, but remains reluctant to talk about his current relationship with Waterhouse. "Do I have to?" he says upon the request to share more details surrounding their low-key romance. "If you let people in, it devalues what love is. If a stranger on the street asked you about your relationship, you'd think it extremely rude. If you put up a wall, it ends better," he adds.
Pattinson also says that as a celebrity, when he's constantly captured doing regular things—like holding hands in public with his significant other—the boundaries between living and acting begin to blur. "I can't understand how someone can walk down the street holding hands, and it's the same as when I do it and a hundred people are taking your photo," he says. "The line between when you're performing and when you're not will eventually get washed away and you'll go completely mad."
January 11, 2019: They celebrate Waterhouse's birthday.
Pattinson joins Waterhouse and her friends for an intimate bash to celebrate the singer's 27th birthday at Casa Cruz restaurant in London, where Cara Delevingne, Ashley Benson, and Liv Tyler are also reportedly in attendance.
