Hayley Atwell made a rare public appearance with fiancé Ned Wolfgang Kelly at the The Standard Theatre Awards 2025 Winners Dinner at Claridges Hotel in London on Sunday.
The actress, 43, who welcomed her first child with the hunky artist in 2024, stunned in a striking silver gown as she was honoured for her role in Much Ado About Nothing.
Hayley’s look boasted a caped collar and floral embroidery which she teamed with diamond earrings and chic black heels.
Meanwhile Ned cut a cool figure in a black suit which he wore over a crisps white shirt with bolo tie.
The couple – who were first linked in July 2022 – have kept their relationship away and from the public eye and are rarely pictured together.
Ned popped the question to Hayley in Venice in April 2023, before going on to welcome their first child a year later.

Confirming their engagement last year, Ned wrote: ‘Lucky me. Arrived in Venice at 10am, around midday the love of my life and I got engaged in the kitchen of this strange apartment surrounded by ducks, with a bloke outside the window murdering “My Way” on the accordion.
‘A perfect start to the rest of our lives together. I’d never had any interest in getting married… until I met this extraordinary woman. Happy as a clam.’
While speaking to the Daily Mail’s Richard Eden, Hayley described Ned’s low-key proposal, recalling: ‘My fiancé was in his pants in the kitchen, and there was an accordion playing outside our window — which was timed perfectly but not planned.
‘We had rented this Airbnb that had lots of shelves with porcelain ducks on them, so it was quite a surreal set-up.
‘I said to him, “Venice was my first most precious destination”, and I’ve always had a weird connection with it. So, he took me there, and it happened there.’
Hayley, was first linked to Ned shortly after she was said to have split from co-star Tom Cruise for the second time.
The London-based artist’s Instagram bio reads that he ‘doesn’t eat animals’ and that he has been ‘alcohol & drug free for over a decade’.

‘They get on like a house on fire and make a very handsome couple.’
Ned’s website says he has produced commercial music for big brands such as Bud Light, Headspace and Samsung.
He has also scored films, worked on the design side of projects, and penned articles.
