Chris Pine, 45, Attends the 2026 Golden Globes with His Partner, Igniting Buzz – Photos

A Golden Globes shocker came not from a win or a gown, but from a certain actor's unforgettable date and the way he looked while out with her.

Chris Pine made waves at the 83rd Golden Globe Awards on January 11, 2026, stepping out with his girlfriend in a move that reignited chatter about their romance, first revealed in 2023.

While the couple skipped the red carpet walk, their cozy moments inside the Beverly Hilton quickly grabbed attention. Viewers couldn't stop commenting, not only on Pine's striking new appearance, but also on the unexpected contrast between the actor and his much younger partner.

Silver Hair and Serious Opinions

The "Princess Diaries 2" actor was at the event to present Best Female Actor – Motion Picture – Drama alongside Ana de Armas, a category that ultimately crowned Jessie Buckley for her performance in "Hamnet."

But Pine wasn't just handing out awards; he was serving a look. Wearing a sleek black tuxedo with glossy wide lapels and a sharp bow tie, he exuded old-Hollywood charm.

His once-boyish hair now showed a distinguished touch of silver, and his neatly groomed Van Dyke facial hair completed the transformation. However, at 45, Pine had fans torn.

"He looks at least 60 and he is only 45, that gray hair is aging him so bad," one TikToker posted, igniting debate.

But others rushed to disagree. "Chris is aging extremely well," one fan shot back. Another added, "WOW Chris looks gooddddd [sic]."

One netizen even noticed something else entirely, commenting, "He did something to his face, but the earring and silver hair... He looks kinda 💋."

Meet the Girlfriend Everyone's Talking About

The buzz didn't end with Pine himself. His date for the night, Keana Sky Wenger, became an instant topic of conversation.

Wenger, a fashion designer, was first linked to Pine in August 2023, when the two were photographed enjoying a romantic boat outing in Sardinia. In the now-famous photos obtained by People, they were seen in swimwear, laughing, and embracing one another on the water.

Although speculation about her identity swirled for months, confirmation finally came in December 2024, when the pair were spotted leaving a Brunello Cucinelli event at the Chateau Marmont arm in arm.

While Wenger did not walk the red carpet with Pine on Sunday night, they were spotted together inside the ceremony, seated side by side. She wore a striking sleeveless black dress with a bold silver collar, and styled her hair in a high ponytail with parted long bangs framing her face.

The couple wasn't shy about their connection, either. Photos captured Wenger placing her hand on Pine's back, while their intimate body language left little doubt about how comfortable — and close — they've become.

Praise, Judgment, and Everything in Between

As soon as images of the couple hit social media, opinions poured in.

"I think she's soo beautiful. Love that she's so real and not plastic Hollywood standards [sic]," one Redditor shared. Another simply wrote, "She's gorgeous!"

Others compared their looks. "He is prettier than she is! I love his smile!" one person joked.

But not all the comments were kind. Some took aim at the age gap, as Wenger is believed to be in her early 30s.

"Geezus looks like his daughter smh [sic]," one Facebooker scoffed. Another added sharply, "Oh he brought his adopted daughter how nice of him."

Still, the couple appeared unfazed by the noise. Aside from the fashion designer, the actor has been linked to other women in entertainment. But who are they?

The Women Chris Pine Has Dated

Pop Sugar provided a comprehensive list of Pine's confirmed and speculated former flames. The first of his known lovers is actress Beau Garrett. According to the outlet, the former lovers had an on-and-off relationship throughout 2008.

The following year, speculations around "The Hills" star Audrina Patridge and Pine possibly being romantically involved gained momentum when they were spotted enjoying dinner together in Los Angeles in 2009. After that, the pair sat together at the MTV Movie Awards.

Pine reportedly called their relationship off due to the prying eyes their relationship attracted. However, Patridge never confirmed nor denied the connection. Later that year, in October, Pine reportedly began dating actress Olivia Munn, whose relationship was said to be "quite serious."

The former couple was photographed numerously in their time together. Sadly, after they ended things, explicit photos that Munn allegedly sent to Pine were leaked from her phone. However, while the actor was still with Munn, he was later linked to another actress, Nathalie Walker, in 2010.

Despair and Speculation

Pine and Walker spent time together at the Hollywood "Roger Room." Despite their relationship remaining unconfirmed, Munn was allegedly distraught when she discovered the news. Jasmine Waltz was also speculated to have been part of Pine's love life.

In April 2010, the pair was photographed leaving a nightclub in Los Angeles. However, the details of their relationship remain unknown. That same year, Pine and Zoë Kravitz sparked dating rumors when the pair hung out during the Met Gala and at the 2013 London Fashion Week.

The rumors were shut down after it was confirmed that Kravitz and Pine were only good friends and had been for years. In the 2011 Fall, Pine and Dominique Piek's romance ensued and went strong for two years before the duo split in 2013.

Following their separation, Pine reflected on his relationship with Piek during an interview. While the "Wonder Woman" actor was promoting "Star Trek Into Darkness," he spoke about how hard it was to maintain a relationship with his career and the celebrity spotlight.

New Flames?

Pine was out clubbing in Los Angeles when he was seen holding hands with swimsuit model Amanda Frances, which led to dating gossip about them being romantically involved. However, the nature of their relationship remains to be known.

Still, in 2013, Pine reportedly dated the former beauty queen, Iris Björk Jóhannesdóttir. The former flames had been seen several times together, but their relationship was short. Two years later, Pine enjoyed another dinner date with actress Vail Bloom where they were pictured kissing.

In 2017, Pine and Sofia Boutella attended Coachella, where the pair stayed together throughout the event. Pine reportedly kept his hand at her waist, except when he would step back while she posed for pictures.

Although this sparked romance rumors between the "Star Trek" co-stars, neither of them responded. Finally, in 2018, Pine met Annabelle Wallis while the "Peaky Blinders" actress was still seeing someone else. Their relationship started casually but, over time, grew quite serious.

Inside His Lasting Relationship

Pine and Wallis were first seen together at the London Heathrow Airport, sparking dating rumors around March 2018. US Weekly reported that Wallis was seeing someone when they first met, but their strong chemistry changed matters, as a source said:

“Chris was very attentive and wooed her to get her attention away from the other guy.”

Moreover, the former couple grew closer as they often clung to each other when attending Hollywood events. One of the attendees at the "I Am The Night" New York premiere after-party noted how cozy they were, with Wallis regularly checking on her ex-lover during the event.

Although the actors spent plenty of time together out in public, Pine and Wallis preferred to keep their relationship private. However, as their relationship became stronger, Pine started to open up a little. In 2020, he shared that he'd be spending the holidays with Wallis's family.

The actor pointed out that it was the first time he'd been away from his family during that free time in his life. He expressed his gratitude for the people in his life, including friends and family, and stated his goals for that new year, saying:

“Taking this year as it is, what it is… I’m going to open myself up to new rituals… Everyone is happy and healthy, whether they are in my family, my circle of friends, that’s all I can ask for.”

Wallis has also spent time with Pine's parents, as she vacationed with the family in August 2018 in Italy. Before her lengthy relationship with Pine, the actress was seeing Coldplay's vocalist Chris Martin. She reflected on the value of her relationships and how vital it was to keep them private, saying:

"I love the person I love, but it means so much to me that I like to keep it safe. I have nothing to hide."

Sadly, after nearly four years together, People confirmed the couple's separation in 2022. By the time the news of their split broke out, it was reported that the couple had already separated months before.
