The third ensemble featured Masekela in a yellow suit and Nyong’o in a matching light blue and yellow dress with a high slit. The couple’s fourth transition featured the Ocasr-winning actress wearing a black and orange dress with a matching headdress while Masekela wore an orange suit with a black lapel.

Nyong’o won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for her role in 12 Years a Slave, while Leto also won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his role in the film Dallas Buyers Club. The actress was also linked to actor Michael B. Jordan, her co-star in Black Panther.
Nyong’o’s new beau also shared the news on Instagram with the caption, “Hearts are synched. My whole and actual love @lupitanyongo. ❤️❤️❤️#outkickedthecoverage 😉.”
