By puckering up in front of the paparazzi, the director of “Edward Scissorhands” and model Monica Bellucci verified the rumors that they are dating that had been around for a long time.

Outlets managed to get their hands on several photos that show Burton and Bellucci pausing their Valentine’s Day stroll in Santa Monica, California, to kiss. The pair also strolled arm-in-arm before he placed his arm around her as they entered a restaurant. Lastly, the restaurant was a romantic setting for the couple.

Both Burton, 64, and Bellucci, 58, wore complementing black costumes that were virtually identical to one another.

The two people are said to have started dating after attending the Lumière Film Festival in Lyon, France, in October 2022, despite the fact that they had known each other for more than 15 years and have been friends for the whole of that time.

Bellucci was invited to the festival as an honored guest, and during her stay there, she bestowed the Lumière Lifetime Achievement Award to the director of “Wednesday.”
