Lupita Nyong’o, the Oscar-winning actress known for her role in Black Panther, has announced her split from boyfriend Selema Masekela. The news comes just one day after she was spotted getting cozy with newly-single actor Joshua Jackson.
In exclusive photos obtained by DailyMail.com, Lupita and Joshua were seen looking close and sharing a joke at a Janelle Monae concert in LA. The photos show them gazing into each other’s eyes and enjoying the show together.
Shortly after the photos emerged, Lupita took to Instagram to share a heartfelt post about a “break-up” and a season of heartbreak caused by deception from her unnamed loved one. She expressed her determination to face the pain, learn from it, and move forward. Lupita’s post also encouraged others to face their pain rather than spreading it.
Lupita had been dating Selema Masekela, a TV host and sports commentator, since 2022. The couple had previously shared a video on social media in which they dressed in different outfits, expressing their love for each other.
Joshua Jackson, known for his role in Dawson’s Creek, was previously married to actress Jodie Turner-Smith. They share a three-year-old daughter named Juno Rose Diana. Jodie filed for divorce from Joshua in October, citing irreconcilable differences.
Fans of Joshua and Jodie were shocked by the divorce filing, as the couple seemed to have a strong bond throughout their four-year marriage. The pair began dating in 2018, two years after Joshua’s split from actress Diane Kruger.
While Joshua is said to be heartbroken over the divorce, a source mentioned that his primary concern is their daughter, and he hopes to maintain a strong co-parenting relationship with Jodie.
It remains to be seen if Lupita’s newfound connection with Joshua will develop into something more serious. Both actors have yet to comment on their recent interaction at the concert.
As the news of Lupita’s split from Selema and her close encounter with Joshua spreads, fans are left wondering about the future of these Hollywood relationships.
