BRIDGET Jones star Leo Woodall and girlfriend Meghann Fahy looked very loved-up as they made a rare public appearance together last night.
The couple turned out to watch a screening of Mad About The Boy in New York and were in high spirits.

Actress Meghann, 34, stunned in a golden dress while Leo, 28, looked smart in a black pinstripe suit.
Posing for pictures inside Jazz at the Lincoln Center, the duo – who met on the set of hit drama The White Lotus in 2022 – flashed beaming smiles and held each other close.
Though the couple were happy to put on a public display of affection last night, Leo was less keen to discuss it during an interview with Australian media earlier in the week.
When asked if he was in love, the Brit actor curtly responded: “That’s none of your business.”
One Day actor Leo plays Bridget Jones’ toyboy heart-throb Roxter in the new flick which sees her become smitten with a much younger man.
And the movie heart-throb reveals he was a bag of nerves when he first met his leading lady, along with movie director Michael Morris, just a week before filming began.
He said: “I was terrified. I got on a Lime bike, but it was a rookie error because I turned up and it was a hot day.
“And I had just cycled for 25 minutes and I was so hot and drank two pints of water the second I arrived. I was sweating terribly.”
Thankfully, Renée Zellweger put Leo at ease. He explained: “She is so iconic. It would be easy for her to have this gravitas, this intimidation about her.
“But she is so humble and lovely and kind and sort of just goofy that it cuts through all of that.”
Speaking on The Chris Evans Breakfast Show with The National Lottery, he added: “She’s one of the best people on the planet, she really is.
“She’s so unbelievably kind and warm, and I’m very lucky to have worked with her.”
In this latest movie, Bridget learns how to navigate life as a single mum after her screen husband Mark Darcy, played by Colin Firth, tragically dies.
Her former romantic interest Daniel Cleaver, portrayed by Hugh Grant, is back, and Chiwetel Ejiofor, Emma Thompson and Isla Fisher also star.
In true hilariously Bridget style, our heroine meets Roxster while she is caught in a precarious position during a visit to London’s Hampstead Heath with her children
