Ant Anstead and Renée Zellweger go Instagram official with snuggly photo
It's official! Ant Anstead and Renée Zellweger are making their Instagram debut as a couple.
Dating rumors first started in July, when paparazzi photos of the two kissing on multiple occasions circulated online. However, the "Wheeler Dealers" host took his relationship one step further with a sweet Instagram post Thursday.
In the black-and-white selfie, Anstead is seen smirking alongside Zellweger, who is smiling and hugging her boo.
Thoguh Anstead left no caption with the photo, some famous faces acknowledged the moment.
"You two," his "Celebrity IOU: Joyride" co-host Cristy Lee commented.
"Heyyyy y’all!" wrote TV host Nischelle Turner alongside heart-eyes emojis.
In August, Anstead confirmed his relationship with the "Judy" actress in a USA TODAY interview. The two met when Zellweger appeared as a guest on Anstead's show "Celebrity IOU: Joyride."
"I can't dodge it," Anstead said at the time. "There’s photos. So everybody knows."

Though Zellweger herself hasn't said anything publicly, Anstead gushed about Zellweger's ability to keep her private life out of the spotlight.
"There's a ton of amazing things about Renée, and her private persona is actually really inspiring," Anstead said. "For somebody so high-profile, she is incredibly private. And I respect that, and ultimately, from my perspective, the irony of the show being called ‘IOU,’ it's like, ‘Thanks, Discovery.’ It's actually I that owe you. And I can recommend Discovery+ dating service to anybody."

Anstead was previously married to fellow HGTV star Christina Haack. The television personalities married in 2018 and finalized their divorce in June 2021, nine months after they announced their separation.
Haack, host of "Christina on the Coast," first shared that the couple were splitting a year after they welcomed a child together.
"We are grateful for each other and as always, our children will remain our priority," she wrote in a now-deleted Instagram post from September. "We appreciate your support and ask for privacy for us and our family as we navigate the future."
