These are photos of Renee Zellweger and her boyfriend of two years, musician Doyle Bramhall II, at an event for The ALS Association on Monday night. As Fishwrapper notes, whatever Renee had done to her face and eyes last year has settled a bit, or maybe we’re just used to her new look, it’s hard to tell. She does look more like the Renee we came to know. The too-long bangs are throwing me off a bit, though.

Renee’s lace overcoat is Burberry and People reports that she has a little black dress on underneath, although I couldn’t find any photos of her with the coat off. Burberry is often fabulous, but I dislike the trend of overcoats as dresses and something feels wrong about lace on a coat. It’s like too many disparate trends that don’t go together. Plus the coat is ombre at the bottom and along the sleeves (comparison photo to runway here.) That’s yet another trend that doesn’t belong.

Anyway I feel like a superficial bitch (which I’m fine with) for focusing on Renee’s coat when she was there for such an important cause. In her speech to the crowd, Renee talked about her longterm friend and publicist, who is living with ALS. Just reading what she said is getting me choked up. On the red carpet, Renee also gushed about her boyfriend. She does seem really happy.

“I’m great. I’m busy. I’m happy,” the actress, 45, told PEOPLE at the star-studded event, which raises money to help conquer amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), the progressive neurodegenerative disease also known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease.

Donning a Burberry jacket over a little black dress, the Bridget Jones’s Diary star was all smiles while chatting about her boyfriend of more than two years, musician Doyle Bramhall II, who was by her side at the charity gala.

“Isn’t he cute? He’s a very sweet man,” she said. “I’m very, very happy right now.”

But the night wasn’t just any red carpet appearance for Zellweger. She explained that the organization has been extremely supportive of her close friend and longtime publicist Nanci Ryder, who was diagnosed with the disease nine months ago.

“It wasn’t hard to throw on a pair of shoes for this one,” she said.

“As a person who loves someone who is living with ALS, I’m happy to be here among so many of you who understand what that diagnosis means,” the actress said during her speech about Ryder. The audience then applauded the famed Hollywood publicist.

“We’ve learned that living with ALS does not mean being defined by the disease. She’s a beautiful example of that,” Zellweger said of her friend. “Her spirit is as vivacious as ever.”

The ALS Association raised so much awareness and funding with the ice bucket challenge last year, and I’m sure they’re grateful when celebrities continue to support the cause. This is a disease affecting Renee’s dear friend, and right now there is no cure. It must be incredibly difficult to see someone you love gradually lose the ability to control their body. I cannot even imagine it.

Renee and Doyle also went to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony together last week. I’m including photos of them there below. The late Stevie Ray Vaughn was one of the inductees and Doyle was a childhood friend. Doyle also founded a band with Charlie Sexton and two former members of Vaughn’s Double Trouble band.

Look at how happy Renee is with Doyle!
