James Marsden is enchanted with his lady love.
The Jury Duty alum was seen stepping out for a lunch date with girlfriend Frederique Brons on Nov. 18, as the couple held hands while walking down the street in New York City.
The duo kept it casual for the outing with James, 51, sporting blue jeans, a cream-colored hoodie, a backwards blue baseball cap and some snazzy sunglasses. Frederique, 26, also wet for comfort in jeans, a brown jacket and sunglasses.
The Notebook actor and the model have kept their romance under wraps since they were first linked together in October of 2023, shortly after James was rumored to be dating model Kelsey Merritt.
Despite his lengthy Hollywood career, James has often kept his private life out of the spotlight. And that includes his children: son Jack, 22, and daughter Mary, 19, who he shares with ex-wife Lisa Linde, as well as 10-year-old son William, whom he coparents with ex Rose Costa.
That could all change, however, if his kids decide to follow in their father's famous footsteps. But are they even interested?
"We'll see," he added. "I wouldn't discourage them for sure."
As for James' own acting path, he has rather enjoyed the fact that folks can never quite predict what he's going to do next—like when he played an over-exaggerated Hollywood version of himself for the series Jury Duty.
"The strange thing to me," he told Newsweek in March, "[people] will say, 'You took such a risk.' It didn't feel like a risk. It felt safe."
And he chalks that up to feeling comfortable making fun of himself. For James, the real risk comes when he plays a part that he feels is more real and full of "conviction."
"That's a little more daunting and scary to me," he admitted, "than making a dunce of myself, or at least highlighting the buffoon."
