Lupita Nyong'o has confused fans after attending the 96th Academy Awards with British actor Joseph Quinn amid her rumoured romance with Joshua Jackson.

The Oscar-winning actress, who is presenting at the Oscars inside the Dolby Theater later this evening, put on a cosy display with her A Quiet Place: Day One co-star Joseph as they posed for pictures on the red carpet - just days after Lupita and Joshua looked loved-up together on holiday.

Lupita's Oscars date with Joseph has now got fans of the award-winning actress wondering if it's all over with Joshua. Commenting on the snaps of Joseph and Lupita, who stunned in a Giorgio Armani Privé powder blue silk gown embellished with crystal beading and matching blue feathers, one wrote on Twitter (X): "Lupita Nyong’o vacationing with Joshua Jackson and showing up to the #Oscars with Joseph Quinn."

"Omg lupita and joseph are hard launching," one wrote. "yeah hard launching the quiet place prequel. support actors working off the clock," another joked, dismissing the idea Lupita and Joseph are dating, with a third adding: "JOSEPH QUINN? WITH…LUPITA? WHATS GOING ON HERE."

Lupita and Dawson's Creek star Joshua sparked dating rumours when they were seen getting close at a party in California back in October. They were seen with a group of friends, chatting, laughing and dancing together. The pair further fuelled rumours of a romance in December, after being spotted looking cosy as they walked through Joshua Tree National Park in California.

Their rumoured relationship was seemingly all but officially confirmed earlier this week, as the two Hollywood stars were snapped looking loved-up in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - laughing, embracing and holding hands and even kissing as they strolled along the shoreline of a beach looking very much like a couple.

Both Lupita and Joshua have recently gone through breakups that made headlines, with Joshua parting ways from fellow actor Jodie Turner Smith earlier this year, with whom he shares a three year old daughter named Juno. Jodie decided to end their marriage in October, citing "irreconcilable differences" in legal documents at a Los Angeles court.

Joshua and Jodie's surprise split came just months after the pair celebrated their 4-year anniversary in August. Around the same time of his split being announced, Joshua was spotted with Lupita. The Black Panther actress also announced her split from her boyfriend, Selema Masekala, around the same period.

A heart-wrenching statement was shared by Lupita on social media, where she explained that she felt the need to "publicly dissociate myself from someone I can no longer trust".

"I find myself in a season of heartbreak because of a love suddenly and devastatingly extinguished by deception," she posted.

The award-winning actress further added, "I am reminded that the magnitude of the pain I am feeling is equal to the measure of my capacity for love. And so, I am choosing to face the pain, cultivating the courage to meet my life exactly as it is, and trusting that this too shall pass."
