She has touched on some offscreen relationships though, telling L’Officiel Australia in July 2023 that she has “a lovely community of friends. I love to host at my place and have everyone over for a Sunday morning, wear your PJs and just come, hang out and watch whatever, sports game or chat, catch up....Luckily, after abandoning my friends so much and leaving town, they’re still willing to come over and hang out.”And in February 2025, she told Hollywood Authentic that attending events during awards season can really “change an actor’s life.”When she went to the 2023 Oscars with the Top Gun: Maverick cast, “I just kept thinking: ‘Embrace it. See it. Feel it,’” she said.“One of the coolest things about being in that conversation is getting to have that sense of community in a space that can be quite intimidating professionally,” she continued. “It was just so exciting to be there, and to watch people make speeches and honor their fellow nominees, and really truthfully do so. It’s not fake. That was so cool.”Here, the complete (public) history of Barbaro and Garfield’s pretty private romance so far.Jump to:January 2025February 2025March 2025April 2025May 2025July 2025August 2025January 2026June 2026July 2026August 2026August 2026September 2026October 2026January 2025On January 4, Barbaro and Garfield were photographed with Eddie Redmayne and W magazine’s editor-at-large Lynn Hirschberg at the outlet’s Best Performances party in Los Angeles.
