Renée Zellweger has developed a strong bond with Ant Anstead’s three children throughout their relationship. According to an exclusive source in the latest issue of We, Zellweger, 54, gets along exceptionally well with Ant's kids and they enjoy spending significant amounts of quality time together. The source further notes that Zellweger has formed a particularly close connection with Amelie, 19, who is Anstead's daughter from his previous marriage to Louise Anstead, along with their son Archie, 16.
According to sources, Renée and Ant prefer to spend their time at home with their children, watching movies and cooking dinner together. They have a relaxed and low-key lifestyle. The couple's relationship began in June 2021, which was also the same month Ant finalized his divorce from Christina Hall (formerly Haack). Prior to their split, Christina and Ant were married for almost two years and have a son named Hudson, who is now three years old. Christina has since remarried to Joshua Hall, whom she wed in April 2022.
Ant and Zellweger crossed paths during the production of an episode for his Discovery+ show, Celebrity IOU Joyride, which was broadcasted in August 2021. Following the ignition of a romance, the duo publicly displayed their affection during numerous outings. Subsequently, they made their debut as a couple at the Radford Motors gala held at the Lyon Air Museum in Santa Ana, California in August 2021.
Ant Anstead has repeatedly expressed his admiration for Renee Zellweger throughout their relationship. In April 2022, he took to his Instagram Story to wish her a happy birthday, affectionately referring to her as a "beautiful lady" and acknowledging his fortunate position. Alongside his heartfelt message, he shared a selfie of the couple.
One month later, an informant disclosed to Us that Zellweger was developing a closer relationship with Ant's son Hudson amidst their ongoing custody battle with Christina. (The former partners resolved their custody dispute in November 2022, opting to maintain joint legal and physical custody.)
In May 2022, the insider revealed, "[Renée] has truly formed a strong bond with [Hudson], and Ant appreciates how nurturing and caring she is towards his children when they are all together." The source further described Ant and Zellweger's relationship as intentionally straightforward and refreshingly grounded.

Ant commemorated their two-year anniversary in April by sharing an Instagram video showcasing their cherished memories. He captioned the post with "Two years of magic x."
In the same month, a source informed Us that Ant and Zellweger were contemplating their shared future. The insider revealed that both individuals desire to establish a settled and loving home together. Renée greatly appreciates Ant's romantic, open, and honest nature. Although it took her some time to find love again, she believes the wait was worthwhile. Her current state of love is nothing short of euphoric, as he completely swept her off her feet.
