In early October last year, Jodie Turner Smith suddenly filed for divorce from Joshua Jackson. While there had been rumors of Joshua cheating, it honestly didn’t feel like Jodie dumped him because of an affair on either of their parts. Maybe I’m wrong, who knows, but that wasn’t the vibe I got. Weeks after he was served divorce papers, Joshua went to a Janella Monae concert with some friends, and one of those friends was Lupita Nyong’o. Rumors swirled, and then Lupita and Joshua were seen together several more times late last year, including a loved-up trip to Joshua Tree. For her part, Lupita’s relationship with Selema Masekela ended around the same time as Joshua & Jodie, and Lupita was really torn up about her breakup. The whole thing between Lupita and Joshua screamed “rebound” for both parties, but… they’re still together. He took her to Puerto Vallarta for her birthday:
Joshua Jackson and Lupita Nyong’o don’t want to wait any longer to make their romance official. Nearly five months after sparking romance rumors, the Dawson’s Creek alum and the Black Panther star looked all loved up during Lupita’s birthday weekend in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Clad in a patterned bikini, Lupita was spotted holding hands with Joshua—who donned on a pair of dark swimming trunks—during a romantic walk on the beach on March 3.
At one point in the day, the Oscar winner and the Dr. Death actor took each other by the hand as they ran into the waves together. During their time out in the sun, the couple also sent temperatures soaring as they shared a passionate kiss.
But their romantic getaway didn’t stop there. A source exclusively told E! News that Joshua, 45, rang in the Us actress’ 41st birthday on March 1 with a large balloon display and a stunning bouquet of flowers set up in their hotel suite. The pair were also spotted around the resort, including hitting the spa for some R&R time.
“They looked madly in love,” an eyewitness shared, “like they just couldn’t get enough of one another.”
Dating speculation surrounding Joshua and Lupita started swirling in late October, when they were seen at Janelle Monae’s Los Angeles concert following their respective breakups from Jodie Turner-Smith and Selema Masekela.
There’s this whole subset of people who dislike Joshua and believe that he’s not good enough for Jodie or Lupita or anyone, really. But to me, Joshua is a catch – handsome, aging like a fine wine, seemingly a good father and he has a reputation as a nice guy and a total pro. What I’m saying is that no one is really good enough for Lupita (she deserves the world) but I’m happy for them and I hope they’re having fun. They’re really hot together. Also: she clearly lost weight after her breakup with Selema (you could see that on her face), so don’t say sh-t about her body. She’s beautiful but that bikini top is way too small!

There was this story from a girl who spent a weekend at jacksons house when he was separated from diane Kruger on deuxmoi… it sounded very hot 🔥 if that’s true, i could understand the hype.
And lupita is 🔥 too!!
Oooh what was the story?!
uh, helllooo?!
tell us this story. tell us! tell us! tell us! lmao
Well something something about having a hot night of fireworks and the next day he had to work but he asked her to stay and she hung around his apartment felling weird because all of dian kruger’s stuff was still in the closets and then he got back home and guess what happens next? They have another round at it and apparently, the dude knows how to use his big man tools. 🧰 they told the story much better!! 😂
Oh my.
I have no objection to them being a couple. It’s their life to live.
That’s one teeny bikini
She is gorgeous, but the bikini top looks SO uncomfortable…my girls twitched in sympathy.
I like both of them but what the heck happened with Jodie? They were so in love??!!! Pfffftttt.
Sometimes after a couple has a child the dynamic of a relationship changes in a way eliminates the romantic part of the relationship. It’s no one’s fault, it just happens.
I didn’t realize they had a child together I was wondering at the comment that he is a good father. That’s a big update to miss
Yeah, have I missed something about Josh?! I’ve been so surprised by the numerous dirtbag comments (elsewhere) when I’ve always thought he was incredibly smart, sexy, and charming.
Lupita is a goddess ofc but that bikini is fug, top and bottom. Glad they’re having fun, and I also hope Jodie is thriving!
Ay bendito, i wat her skin so bad…it’s like chocolate ganache. She is luminous!
Luminous, that’s definitely the word for her
The photographer seems to be in the water? I’m confused.
I assume the paps are on a boat with very zoomy lenses.
I’ma picture a guy in swim trunks and flippers with a snorkel pulled up over his head.
Oh my, she looks like some kind of glorious statue. Incredible. Her body is a work of art.
I’m sorry, I’m petty and I know it and I just hate this for Jodie.
Why? Jodie filed for divorce and honestly seemed more interested in party and country hopping with her best friend than being married. She meet a model guy a couple months ago and took him with her family and kid to Jamaica for New Years based on her Brothers IG. She seems fine. Did she really expect him to not date anyone? If anything-this relationship is better than some 20 something insta model.
Really I think it just makes me sad for Jodie that everyone is so happy to see her ex with someone else. Also, sometimes people go overboard proving how happy they are just to stick it to their exes, and I sorta get that vibe here.
But you’re 100% right and I’m glad to hear Jodie sounds like she’s doing well.
Agreed. Jodie I think didn’t want to deal with what marriage was, which would be her having to give up some stuff, him too at times. I think many actresses have talked about this at times like Jen Garner. That someone has to pass on job opportunities, etc. I wonder if Jodie and Joshua got married cause of the baby and not so much because they wanted to be married to each other. I am happy that both of them seem to be happy and are coparenting well.
Sorry but I never really bought the narrative that Josh didn’t want Jodie to have a career. All his long-term relationships have been with working actresses and he clearly doesn’t have a problem with his partner being as successful as he is or more. I don’t know if that narrative was created by fans or put out by Jodi’s team or what but it never really made sense, given what we know about Jackson’s dating history. I think it was mostly made up to make Josh look like the classic self-involved asshole when he really hasn’t shown himself to ever be that.
I do think that Jodie fell out of love or lust or just decided that she didn’t want to share a life with Josh. It happens. I’m glad they’re both happy and have moved on.
Lupita adopted a cat and I wish she had just taken the time to heal with her new fluffy friend after her breakup which seemed very traumatic at the time. Maybe this is just a rebound fling for both of them (which is fine) but it seems more serious than that.
I was SO happy to see her with that post-breakup kitty and I wanted her to just enjoy being a single cat mom too but if this is real, then I’m happy for her. It does feel fast but maybe it doesn’t to her, ya know?
i don’t really have an opinion about them other than to say, she is absolutely gorgeous and I bet he knows how to f*ck.
Love them together ❤ I’m a fan of both ❤
Ahh, Lupita is a fellow anxiety girl. I’ve been arguing with a partner for the past month and all my clothes are too big on me now. We just eat that anxiety…and little else.
Joshua always looks so damn PROUD to be with the women that he dates. He’s beaming! He did this with Diane, Jodie, and now Lupita.
I have always had massive boobs. I’m amazed to see teeny bikinis in action. That looks so uncomfortable!
This dude has dated some GORGEOUS women. It’s a shame his marriage didn’t work out, hopefully they both coparent well and are happy moving on.
Lupita is stunning, but that top is definitely too small!
True! I am not one to fixate on peoples’ looks, but there is just no denying that Jodie is an aesthetic knock-out and Lupita is one of my choices for most beautiful woman in the world (tied with Gemma Chan).
By the look of things J&J are doing ok. Hard to find fault on not giving the media something to b*tch about.
Actually, it all seemed to start as sort of non-exclusive hot and heavy romance on both parties. Then Jodie got pregnant and proposed to Joshua, amidst terrible online attacks from r*cist trolls. I always felt they genuinely cared a lot about each other, but also that the overall situation might have inadvertedly gun-pointed them into domesticity too early on. Everybody is blaming Jodie, but no one ever again saw Joshua with that girl he was kissing goodbye at the airport. Few days later the separation is announced after months of rumours. It looked to me that Joshua’s side and not Jodie’s wanted to have it done. Not that I fully blame him, since they obviously wanted different things, and further comments from Jodie’s side seemed to resent the separation. Everything worked out for good, it seems.
I hope a great time is being had by one and all but this is obviously a rebound. Enjoy pretty people!!!! The bikini top being small is a thing now. Every time I go on vacation I see someone who should have gone at least a size up , especially with triangle tops.
