The actress met businessman Jacob through a mutual friend in 2019. 

After dating for more than a year, they made their first red carpet appearance together at Prince Albert‘s Planetary Health Gala in Monaco in September 2020.

Last year she shared that she had known Jacob for a while. 

‘He’s a very private person, so I don’t like to give away too much in that department,’ the actress said during a Q+A session on Instagram with her fans.

‘But I will say we dated before I started any of this health journey, as well as now. So that goes to show you, ladies: you don’t have to be a certain size to get a boyfriend.’

They were last pictured together on December 24 when leaving a ski trip in Colorado.
