Harry Styles' girlfriend Taylor Russell stuns at the BAFTAs as he skips ceremony for the football

Harry Styles' girlfriend Taylor Russell stunned on the red carpet at the 77th EE British Academy Film Awards on 18 February. Watermelon Sugar singer Harry, 30, was nowhere to be seen at the BAFTAs, as he was busy cheering on Manchester United at a football match. Taylor, 29, a Canadian actress, who is the star of Bones and All, looked gorgeous at the awards, in a white silk floor-length, backless gown with cut-outs at her hips.

It featured elaborate feather detailing at the waist and at the bottom, and she looked like she was feeling confident as she posed up a storm. Meanwhile, One Direction star Harry was pictured in the crowd at the Premier League match between Luton Town and Manchester United.

Taylor and Harry are believed to have started dating in June 2023, when they were seen cosying up together at an event in London, nine months on from his split from US actress, Olivia Wilde, 39. A source said at the time: “He clearly wanted to be there to support Taylor but did not want the attention to be on him as it was her big night”.

They also added: “Harry looked very proud in the audience.

He was sitting next to James Corden and his wife. Harry went to Taylor’s dressing room after the play finished and stayed in there with her for about an hour. “They emerged from her dressing room at about 10.30pm and walked up stairs to a public bar.

It looked like they were holding hands. Harry stayed by Taylor’s side the whole time. He was introducing her to James Corden, whispering to her, laughing and smiling.” The Bafta Awards on Sunday, 18 February, were hosted by Doctor Who legend David Tennant, who made everyone laugh with his opening speech.
