Suki Waterhouse, 26, is apparently dating 48-year-old Darren Aronofsky now

The Fashion Awards 2017

Does it sounds mean if I say I don’t really “get” why Suki Waterhouse is a thing? She’s pretty, she’s a model, and…? I don’t know. I don’t really associate her with one look, with one thing, with one campaign or fashion or anything like that. So why do we know her? Because she dated Bradley Cooper for a few years, basically. Suki and B-Coop broke up in 2015, and he took up with Irina Shayk and they had a baby. In that time, Suki dated Diego Luna, but it seems like they’ve broken up, as they haven’t been seen together in a few months. And now this:

That’s Suki with Darren Aronofsky, who last dated Jennifer Lawrence. J-Law to Suki? He has a type: pouty, look-alike blondes. They were seen in Sundance together this week. What kind of pull does Darren Aronofsky have on women? He had a baby with Rachel Weisz, he dated J-Law and now he’s with a pretty – albeit forgettable – 26-year-old model? What’s he working with? My guess is that he’s the kind of guy who likes to be with much-younger women so he can impress them with his Harvard education and intellectualism.

Also: did you know Suki is an actress now? It’s true. Do you think Darren will write a role for her, just like he did with J-Law in Razzie-nominated mother!?

    That was quick.

    • Lahdidahbaby says:

      Career move for her? Or else he’s really great in the sack. As long as you keep your eyes closed to avoid seeing his smarmy smirk. Does he never stop smirking?

  2. Indiana Joanna says:

    The Razzie nomination for schlock shock mother! is great.

  3. tegteg says:

    He looks pretty confident, which is attractive. I’m guessing his a$$hole nature doesn’t emerge on the first few dates.

    Why does he keep dating such young women? Because he thinks they’d be easier to control? This is all conjecture, but he gives me the crazy vibe and he looks like he has a temper.

  4. Mia4s says:

    HAHAHAHAHAHA! Oh honey, no.

    I’m really getting the sense JLaw broke up with him. And now he tries it with an even younger blonde.

    I doubt either cares but now I really want JLaw and Diego to have dinner together next time they’re in the same city. See what metaphor Darren would see in that. 😁

  5. KP says:

    Right before Suki dated B-Coop was when all the J-Law/B-Coop rumors were flying post “Silver Linings Playbook.” Weird Coincidence???

  6. SM says:

    I chocked on my smoothy upon reading that headline. Gross

  7. Digital Unicorn (aka Betti) says:

    She has a type – celebrities. I know this worked for Sienna Miller but she at least has some talent as an actress.

    I don’t get why she’s a thing – there is nothing of note about her, other than the friends she has and the men she dates.

    • anna222 says:

      It’s odd right? Cara Delevingne at least has a strong look, Suki isn’t even particularly photogenic.

    • minx says:

      Exactly, I don’t get why she’s a thing either.

      • PIa says:

        Also, her dating BCoop when she was 21 and he was almost 40 was sooo gross. And her reading Lolita with him in a park wearing a romper….

    • tealily says:

      I think her type is older celebrities. I don’t get it. (Except Diego Luna. I totally get that.)

    • teacakes says:

      She’s trying to happen as an It Girl/fashion girl in the mold of Kate Moss and Sienna Miller but just ends up coming off like a budget attempt at copying them.

      I mean, say what you will about those two, they actually had distinctive style that people wanted to imitate. Suki is just another posh blonde who wants to look ‘bohemian’.

    • SKF says:

      She was actually decent in that movie The Bad Batch. Horrible accent-work aside. She was pretty good and she held your attention. She’s got something. Not the most amazing something but she can definitely develop it. She seems to be pretty hungry for it too.

  8. Nicole says:

    To answer your last questions/statements: I agree he dates younger not as educated women to be the power in that dynamic. And yes he will write a role for Suki if she stays long enough. Otherwise not sure what else she’s doing with him. She’s been trying to act for a minute now (to no success)

    • Melanie says:

      It can take many years to become successful, and she does seem to be getting bit parts here and there. Not that I’m defending this relationship, though. LOL I’m just saying that it can take a very long time. It took Bradley several years too.

  9. Rachel says:

    Man, he’s gross.

  10. Mabs A'Mabbin says:

    Maybe it’s her name lol. They like saying, “Suukkeehh.”

  11. serena says:

    The hell?? Darren A. after Diego Luna? Girl..

    • MamaHoneyBadger says:

      Question: Why are they together?
      Answer: “…did you know Suki is an actress now?”

  12. monette says:

    How can one go from Diego Luna to this guy? I wanna say nerd, but that would insult all the lovely nerds out there.
    I don’t get his or her appeal. Actually, they are very suited for each other. Meh and overrated.

  13. Bishg says:

    This girl is very smart in that she manages to stay remotely relevant through celebrity hookups and VIP circles.

  14. OriginalLala says:

    I know men like this, I’ve dated men like this. It’s all ego and control.

    • Lizzie says:

      100%

    • PamelaRose says:

      Or perhaps, like most men when they are allowed to honest, he’s attracted to the physical beauty of a young woman. And lets be honest, thats enough for men. Rarely do they want anything more complex out of the partners they choose.

      • OG Cleo says:

        If your sample population is made up of frat bros and dumb douchebags. Hate to be anecdotal, but no guy I know/dated ever ONLY wanted an attractive girl (unless you’re talking about a hook up situation). It didn’t hurt, but it’s not the only thing. Let us not lose hope completely!

  15. Juliette says:

    Probably JLaw dumped him and Suki is his rebound LOL.
    BTW I want JLaw with a hot guy now

    • Rachel says:

      Prayer circle for Jennifer to date an attractive young man. Hopefully “The Aronofsy Experience” has made her move on from older guys for awhile.

      • Annika says:

        IDK why but I’d like to see her with one of the Skarsgard brothers

      • Linabear says:

        Nicholas Hoult was young and seemed like such a good, sweet guy! She went from him to (someone else? to) Aronofosky. I don’t understand.

    • Sarah says:

      @linabear, she dated Chris Martin after the cute Nick guy and before Potato Head here. Not as cringeworthy but still quite a bit older and damn I wouldn’t want to deal with his ex wife.

  16. Linabear says:

    Suki has a millionaire father who bought her modeling career and PR buzz. Yes she is cute but not very memorable and her height and proportions are very short making her unsuited for it. She hustles hard though. And this pairing is gross.

    • Loopy says:

      Yes she is one of those aristo girls that were pushed by the Daily Mail until they became famous biggest example is Cara Delavigne.

    • Hazel says:

      Her father is a top plastic surgeon (Norman Waterhouse) and she is Cara’s childhood friend. I agree she is not very striking as a model.

    • Taxi says:

      Suki & Cara are both 5’8.”

      • PIa says:

        Both are shorter than standard modelling height. But atleast Cara gives face sometimes…Suki always looks lost.

      • Adrien says:

        Cara has a particular look. Hell, her eyebrows even set a trend that would never seem to go away.

  17. Talie says:

    Jennifer has questionable taste in men, but she does have agency. She doesn’t need him, or need to be grateful to him for anything. She’ll always have opportunities.

    • Juliette says:

      @Talie
      Yeah. JLaw didn’t need Aronofsky or other men to be successfull. She’s already one of the most powerful people in Hollywood.
      Instead Suki needed Bradley Cooper to become more famous. She began to get roles as an actress after that relationship and problably now she needs Aronofsky. It’s this that makes this relationship gross and unbalanced. He has the power and she not.

  18. Slowsnow says:

    If I had a physique like hers, I would dye my hair black or red, something noticeable.
    She looks like any other blonde chick with mid-length straight hair. S
    he seems like a nothing burger because she styles herself that way.
    I can’t figure out how an adult cannot understand that to have a job as an actor or a high profile model you have to have something distinctive going for you.
    Christina Hendriks understood that and dyed her hair red for instance (and apparently Karen Elson did the same following her advice).

    • DiligentDiva says:

      I confuse her with Lily James all the time. I loved when Lily James dyed her hair brown for the exact reason you stated, while of course, these women are beautiful they all look so similar. And being similar in Hollywood is a bad thing.

      • Slowsnow says:

        True! I’m not fond of Lily James’ acting but I find her career choices very clever.

      • Lex says:

        Lily James is beautiful but blonde hair on her is utterly tragic!
        Check her out in the last season of Secret Diary of a Callgirl. Gorgeous!

    • Nello says:

      These millennial chicks are just too damn basic to get the allure of uniqueness.

  19. DiligentDiva says:

    I have a feeling this like Jennifer’s relationship is less about a relationship and more about an upcoming starlet wanting connections. Jennifer was quick to disassociate from him once there movie bombed.
    That being said does that mean Diego Luna is single now?

    • Katie says:

      @Diligentdiva
      Jlaw wan’t an upcoming starlet. She was already one of the most famous and successfull women in the world and an Oscar winner. She has already her connections in the industry and didn’t need of Aronofsky.
      I agree that Suki is with him for his connections.

      • DiligentDiva says:

        @katie
        Jlaw wasn’t upcoming, but she probably wanted connections, cause to some extent Jlaw has peaked. She’s been nominated and won once. I believe she wanted connections to ensure she got more award-winning parts. I’m sure she wants a second oscar bad.
        Jlaw hasn’t made her career on her talent, her acting is mediocre at best. She’s made a career on getting the best connections possible.

      • Katie says:

        @DiligentDiva
        You can dislike JLaw as an actress but she made a career thank on her talent and star quality. She won an acting award at Venice Film Festival in 2008, she was Oscar nominated for the first time when she was a little know actress in 2010. Then she did X Men and Hunger Games and become a huge star. She hadn’t connections, she made them working. She doesn’t need of Aronosfky’s connections to work.
        We are in the #Metoo moviment and still we try to discredit a woman’s success just because we don’t like her. It’s wrong.

      • DiligentDiva says:

        Jennifer Lawrence has no talent. Her acting is horrific. She made her career off her connections. She is good at that, I give her credit it for it, that takes work as well. She’s not alone in doing this, many actresses are like her, they get famous/nominations off their connections not talent.
        Why you bringing metoo into this? It has nothing to do with it. We get it you really really like Jennifer *I scratched my ass on scared native stones and thought it was funny* Lawrence.

      • Tiffany :) says:

        Considering the people in the industry, who are experts on the craft, regularly reward her for her acting performances, it is a stretch to say she has no talent.

    • Mia4s says:

      “That being said does that mean Diego Luna is single now?”

      LOL! That was my only question too. 😏

      Although it’s hard to know with him as he seems to like to disappear and keep things locked down. As a friend pointed out, isn’t it funny that he was in NYC filming Barry Jenkins’ new movie in November and stayed almost completely under the radar? It’s almost like someone wasn’t there to call the paparazzi. Hmmmm. 🤔

      • DiligentDiva says:

        Honestly, I hope he goes back to his wife. I thought they made a cute couple and they have two young children together.

      • Mia4s says:

        Honestly that wouldn’t shock me @DiligentDiva, though they’ve been divorced for five years. Even the Spanish language media seems confused about how often they’re seen together, even without the kids. Whatever they’re doing it clearly works for their family, so who knows?

      • teacakes says:

        @Mia4S- hmmmm indeed, lol. I think Diego was really just an intermittent hookup situation that got papped when it was convenient.

        But the upshot of this news is that Diego Luna is single, I approve and Sookie can have all the Aronofskys she wants.

    • teacakes says:

      Ummm JLaw was far from an upcoming ‘starlet’ when she worked with him, I’d say being the face of a hit franchise and already an Oscar winner/multiple nominee was pretty good proof of her being a full-on star.

      She’s got plenty of other connections if she wants to make Oscar bait, Aronofsky wasn’t someone with the potential to make or break her.

  20. mannori says:

    it’s official: Darren aronofsky is a fking average famewh*re and a pretty lame dude all around.

    • mela says:

      for real.

      This confirms that. jLaw was way out of his league. She is better of without that nasty old man, i’m sorry but he’s nottttt hot and this makes him look so basic

      • mannori says:

        is not even about how ugly he is. Is about how he hides an average dude bro on a midlife crisis desperate for validation by dating young girls who he can manipulate easily, behind that mask of highbrow arty hipster. He’s just looking for easy p*ssy now that he’s famous and his fame as a talented director gets him impressionable girls searching for an arty daddy to feel better for not getting any while in high school. A woman his own age would call out his BS in a nanosecond.

  21. Nello says:

    “My guess is that he’s the kind of guy who likes to be with much-younger women so he can impress them with his Harvard education and intellectualism”
    YUP!!! Very pathetic. And he looks like her Dad. Gross.

  22. Bobafelty says:

    Suki gets the same reaction from me as Rita Ora. Who keeps trying to make them happen?

  23. trollontheloose says:

    if you see D.A and Clint Mansell in real life, they have each other mimics.They are so good friends that you’d think they are twins, They look like brothers. Each following the path of thinking to the other.

  24. LittlefishMom says:

    Not sure which annoys me more, her name or his face.

  25. HoustonGrl says:

    eye roll

  26. blonde555 says:

    Ugh. He’s so hideous. Girls thirst is real tho; got a good one quickly after Bradley. I’m URE she’s hoping to do a Miranda.

  27. starkiller says:

    As for how he keeps reeling the women in: I recently listened to a podcast that featured an interview with him, and he came off surprisingly well. He seemed open, friendly, unpretentious (!) and even a little self-deprecating—not at all what I expected. If this is the face he normally has on (at least at first) I can understand how he’d seem appealing.

  28. Ankhel says:

    He doesn’t date these pretty, young girls because he wants to impress them, he wants to impress other men with his shiny new playthings. Our little shaved porcupine wants to be a big alpha, see.

    Also, if this is a real relationship, then I’m a buttered crumpet. He’s humiliated professionally, his gf left, and he turns up with a younger, even prettier version of said girlfriend? A girl who used to “date” Bradley Cooper? Ahahahaaaa!

    • SJ says:

      I’m with you. The same day it’s announced that his brilliant, only-geniuses-understand-it film mother was nominated for Razzies instead of Oscars he gets papped with a new PYT? Coincidence, I think not.

    • Jayna says:

      Prettier than J-Law? Hell, no. Jennifer is very striking. This girl is kind of bland pretty. The most beautiful woman he ever dated and lived with, engaged to, was Rachel Weisz, In her late ’40s, she still topples all those girls as far as beauty, poise, intelligence.

  29. Pandy says:

    God, can’t stand the pairing of old farts with girls who could be their daughter. Suki needs a movie part I guess.

  30. shuuuki says:

    When Kate beckinsale dated a 20years old boy,you are not feel gross

  31. A Fan says:

    All I can muster up with this boring cool kid is her huge down-filled coat is mucho overkill. It’s not even cold there.

    [*And he clearly likes them young.*]

  32. LondonGal says:

    I imagine him to be an arch ‘negger’. Using that stupid ‘negative reinforcement’ technique to throw throw the young ones off kilter. Gross.

  33. holly hobby says:

    Count me in for the “why is she a thing” wagon. I don’t think she’s remarkable and does she know she’s dating a guy that has douche written all over his face?

  34. FF says:

    He found a new “muse” just like his Mother! film predicted.

    All I’m getting from this is that JLaw probably dumped him, not the other way around.
