Rami Malek made as public a declaration of affection as one could make when he announced to the audience at the 2019 Oscars while accepting the Best Actor Award that his "Bohemian Rhapsody" co-star, Lucy Boynton, had captured his heart. The pair met in 2017 while starring as Queen frontman Freddie Mercury and his girlfriend, Mary Austin, in the biopic; they were seen together at various public events, including the numerous award shows that honored Malek's performance as Mercury. He made their relationship public at the 2019 Palm Springs International Film Festival, where he won top acting honors for "Bohemian Rhapsody." In his acceptance speech, Malek said of Boynton, "You have been my ally, my confidant, you are my love."
The couple remained together well into 2020, making appearances at high-profile events like the Oscars and Golden Globes, and at the 2022 premiere of "No Time to Die," in which Malek starred opposite Daniel Craig as James Bond. But by the end of that year, Malek was spotted with his "No Time to Die" co-star, Lea Seydoux, and with actor Emma Corrin in 2023.
