Oscar and Elvira have been together for ten years

Oscar and Elvira reportedly met back in 2012 while at a party celebrating the premiere of his first major movie, Inside Llewyn Davis, but did not go public with their relationship until four years later. During the 2016 Golden Globe Awards, Oscar surprised fans and fellow celebrities alike when he leaned in and gave Elvira a kiss before going up to accept the award for Best Actor.

The couple have two children together

The pair tied the knot a year later in March 2017, a month before they welcomed their first child together. Their son Eugene, now 4, was named after Oscar's mother, Eugenia, who sadly died that same year.

Speaking to GQ about the difficult year, the Dune actor revealed that watching how Elvira stepped up to take care of his mother during her illness solidified his love for her. "I saw [Elvira] carrying my child, bathing my sick mom — seeing her do that, I just thought: 'I want to be with this person forever and ever.' And I just wanted to take that extra step as well."

The couple welcomed another son named Mads in October 2019, making them a family of four. More recently, they stepped out together at the 2022 Met Gala wearing a very eye-catching couples' costume, which consisted of Oscar in a dress and Elvira in a suit.
