After almost a year of keeping their relationship under wraps, Glen Powell's girlfriend, Gigi Paris, and the "Top Gun: Maverick" actor made their relationship Instagram official. When Paris was not running her clothing line or modeling, she supported her man during red-carpet appearances.
Powell began his acting career with minor roles in films and television series. He appeared in "The Dark Knight Rises" in 2012 and became a famous face on TV when he starred as Chad Radwell in Fox's comedy-horror "Scream Queens" from 2015 to 2016.
In 2022, Powell became an instant heartthrob after acting alongside Tom Cruise in "Top Gun: Maverick." While he was doing well for himself in front of the camera, he kept his off-screen relationship with Paris under wraps before they became Instagram official in 2021.
Who Is Glen Powell's Girlfriend, Gigi Paris?
Jehane-Marie Paris, commonly known as Gigi Paris, kickstarted her modeling career when she was only 14 years old. Almost ten years ago, Paris spoke about how excited her 14-year-old self was when she landed a gig with Seventeen magazine as one of her bookings.
After that, she continued working with big brands such as Revolve and Nordstrom. In 2015, Paris tried her hand at runway modeling when she walked in a Swim Week fashion show.
Paris was born in Miami, Florida, but is of Parisian and Venezuelan origin. Her parents immigrated to the States and met while attending the University of Miami. Paris said her multicultural background influenced how she identified as a person. She said:
"I identify with many different cultures, so I don't really identify with anything in particular. I call myself a little 'out' of sorts."
In 2014, she made her acting debut when she starred in Keith Urban's "Somewhere in My Car" music video. Paris and her on-screen love interest shot steamy scenes, and the music video had eighteen million views at the time of writing. In 2020, Paris launched a clothing line called Jijou.
She occasionally lent her modeling skills during photoshoots for the clothing line, and its Instagram account had over two thousand followers at the time of writing. The clothing lines' website wrote that it sourced and made its clothing locally in Los Angeles.
The environment-friendly clothing line made hand-dyed garments such as dresses and underwear, and Paris said it was "rewarding to see this come to life." In 2021, Paris shared via Instagram that she had taken a trip to Bali, and after three hundred hours, she obtained her license as a yoga instructor.
She wrote in her caption that she stepped into the experience without knowing what to expect and not knowing it would change her life. She noted that she was thankful for the "capability of teaching something that can benefit others" and urged her followers to follow their dreams.
How Long Have Glen Powell and Gigi Paris Been Together?
During an interview in 2019 with Glamour magazine, Powell shared that he was single. He answered many relationship-related questions, and although he was still on the market, he knew what he was looking for in a partner- someone who knew how to let go and let loose. He said:
"My family will dance on the table at Christmas and Thanksgiving, and if the person I like is trying to behave and doesn't dance with my family, they're not going to fit in."
In January 2020, Powell and Paris sparked dating rumors when they vacationed together in Punta Mita, Mexico. They had not confirmed anything but were spotted kissing on the beach. Later in the month, Paris supported Powell at a fundraiser event, but they did not walk the red carpet together.
In 2021, having been in a rumored relationship for a year, they made things Instagram Official and posted a nose-to-nose photo before a sunset. They publicly stepped out together in November 2021 at the annual Guggenheim International Gala.
Days later, they were side by side at the New York Moves 2021 Power Women Gala. Since making their relationship public, Paris and Powell did not turn down the flirting. Powell shared a top-less picture in May, and Paris was one of many people to react.
In his comment section, she joked that she would burn all his shirts, and fans were in agreeance. And for her 30th birthday in June, Powell celebrated his lady with a birthday tribute on social media. In the first picture, Paris is dawning a turquoise blue bikini top and sticking her tongue out playfully. In the caption, Powell wrote:
"Where ever you are, the sun shines brighter. Every day is perfect because you're in it."
