Rami Malek and Lucy Boynton started their evening in black and white and ended it in color. After posing together on the Oscars red carpet, Boynton switched out of her black and white dress into a pastel rainbow gown for the Vanity Fair Oscar after party. The dress had definite Barbie vibes. Malek, meanwhile, remained in his black suit.
Yet again, the Bohemian Rhapsody co-stars turned off-screen couple kept their PDA to a minimum in front of the cameras.

Malek and Boynton have been dating for years. Us Weekly first reported the two were seeing each other in April 2018. “They met while filming Bohemian Rhapsody in London,” a source told the magazine. “He is so into her. He goes and visits her in London all the time.”
But it wasn’t until January 2019 that Malek started publicly talking about Boynton as his girlfriend. At the Palm Springs International Film Festival, Malek said in his acceptance speech for the ceremony’s Breakthrough Performance Award, “Thank you, Lucy Boynton. You have been my ally, my confidant, my love. Thank you so much.”
The two’s most viral moment as a couple was a month later at the Oscars. Malek won Best Actor and kissed Boynton when his name was announced. During his acceptance speech on stage, he gave Boynton a heartfelt shoutout. “Lucy Boynton, you’re the heart of this film,” he told her. “You are beyond immensely talented. You have capture my heart. Thank you so much.”
