Loki star Tom Hiddleston appears to have confirmed that he is in a relationship with actress Zawe Ashton, after the pair attended the 2021 Tony Awards together.
The actors were first linked in 2019 after they co-starred in play Betrayal as a married couple and they have since been spotted out together, but this weekend has marked their first official public appearance together.
Hiddleston and Ashton were photographed on the red carpet at the Tony Awards, which were held yesterday (September 26) in New York City, alongside Daredevil actor – and their Betrayal co-star – Charlie Cox. They then posed for another snap inside the ceremony as a couple.

Hiddleston had been nominated for Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Play at the annual theatre awards, for his role in Betrayal, but the award ended up going to Andrew Burnap for his performance in The Inheritance.
Hiddleston has previously been romantically linked to singer Taylor Swift and actress Susannah Fielding.
Ashton is known for her roles as Violet 'Vod' Nordstrom in Channel 4 comedy Fresh Meat and as Katherine in Not Safe For Work, while she has also starred in Doctor Who, The Handmaid's Tale and Velvet Buzzsaw.
She has also been cast in upcoming Marvel movie The Marvels, a move which will see her join Hiddleston in the MCU.

It has been reported that Ashton will be playing a villain in The Marvels, although exactly who her character is has not been confirmed.
The sequel to Captain Marvel will see Carol Danvers (Brie Larson) teaming up with fellow heroes Ms Marvel / Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani) and Monica Rambeau (WandaVision's Teyonah Parris), so whoever Ashton is playing is sure to be a powerful adversary to be able to take on all three of them.
Loki season 1 is streaming exclusively on Disney+. Season 2 has been officially confirmed.
