All About Alexa Chung and Tom Sturridge’s Relationship
Alexa Chung and Tom Sturridge are enjoying their relationship behind closed doors.
While the model and actor haven’t shared how they first met, they confirmed their romance in July 2022 when they were spotted smiling and kissing in the stands at Wimbledon in London.
Chung, who previously dated Arctic Monkeys frontman Alex Turner and Alexander Skarsgård, previously opened up to The Standard about lessons she’s learned about relationships throughout her life.
“I do love love, though. I don’t think love should make you feel uneasy. When you feel sick, I don’t think that’s love — that’s infatuation,” she told the outlet in 2016.
The fashion designer continued, “Someone who makes you feel like that is exciting — it’s the one that you imagine when you think of an amazing affair — but that’s not actually a stable love.”
Though Chung and Sturridge tend to keep their connection on the private side, the pair have made a few public appearances together, even sparking engagement rumors in 2023.
Here’s everything to know about Alexa Chung and Tom Sturridge’s relationship.
Chung and Sturridge had their first public appearance together at Wimbledon in July 2022. At the event, the couple sat together in the stands and leaned in for a kiss that the cameras captured.
Chung and Sturridge weren’t completely alone, though. In the row below them, Sturridge’s ex Sienna Miller with boyfriend Oli Green — who have been linked since February 2022 — were also watching the match. The group also took a selfie together when they got the chance.
Sturridge and Miller have remained close since going their separate ways nearly a decade ago.
Prior to his relationship with Chung, Sturridge dated Miller from 2011 to 2015. They welcomed their daughter, Marlowe, in 2012.
PEOPLE confirmed in July 2015 that Miller and Sturridge had broken up after four years of dating. Miller opened up about their split two years later, telling Harper’s Bazaar that the pair “still love each other.”
“It’s great for our daughter that she has two parents who love each other and are friends. He’s definitely my best friend in the entire world,” the American Sniper actress said.
Most recently, in December 2023, she appeared on Vogue’s The Run-Through podcast, and shared that she has family dinners with Chung, Sturridge, Oli and Marlowe. Apart from calling Chung “exquisitely dressed,” Miller praised how well everyone got along.
“It’s genuinely very loving and cozy and great,” she shared. “It’s ideal. It’s incredible. We are very lucky.”
The previous year, Miller voiced her approval of Chung and Sturridge’s pairing, telling British Vogue, “I’m really happy for them. It’s genuinely lovely.”
The first major Hollywood event the couple attended together was the Met Gala in May 2023, where they paid tribute to the late designer Karl Lagerfeld with the theme, Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty.
The model and actor walked the red carpet hand-in-hand.
He wore a simple black Dior suit for the occasion, while she chose a top and skirt by Irish designer Róisín Pierce with a matching bonnet. She accessorized the sheer and satin all-white look with jewels by Boucheron and Jimmy Choo clutch and shoes.
