Jodie Turner-Smith unveiled a bold new hairstyle at the Met Gala 2024, while her ex Joshua Jackson and his new partner Lupita Nyong'o were absent from the event. Turner confidently showcased her stunning platinum blonde straight hair for the first time, capturing everyone's attention at the glamorous gala on Monday evening.

The 37-year-old actress and model looked stunning in a beautiful white dress. The dress was decorated with delicate embroidered flowers and she wore a sheer-feathered cape that flowed elegantly behind her.

At the event, the Queen & Slim star mingled with celebrities like Zendaya and Jennifer Lopez. She paired her blonde wig with a winged eyeliner and eyeshadow look, along with dangling earrings to complete her glamorous ensemble.

She added a pop of color to her outfit with a purple flower, matching bangles, and a cross necklace.

The star confidently flaunted her look on the red carpet, posing for numerous cameras. Luckily, there were no chances of any awkward encounters as Jackson and Black Panther star Nyong’o were reportedly in California, miles away.

Turner-Smith filed for divorce from her actor husband on September 13, 2023, citing “irreconcilable differences”. She later shared that she made the decision because she believed that staying in unhealthy situations can leave visible scars.

In an interview with The Times in the U.K., published on Sunday, February 25, she mentioned, “Sometimes, despite our best efforts, things just don’t work out. And that’s okay. What matters most is choosing what is best for your well-being, your family, and especially your children.”

She added, "Throughout our lives, there are countless moments when we question our true selves and whether we are staying authentic to who we are. If the answer is no, it's important to take action because I truly believe that staying in unhealthy situations leaves visible scars. These scars not only impact us but also those around us."

Jodie Turner-Smith and Joshua Jackson were spotted at the 2022 Met Gala, looking stunning in their outfits.

She shared, "I believe that the bravest thing anyone can do is acknowledge when something isn't working and take action. I hope to always lead by example for my daughter."

Turner-Smith reassured that their love and happiness for their 3-year-old daughter remains strong. They got married in secret in December 2019 and welcomed their daughter a year later.

In December, following their breakups, Jackson and Nyong’o began dating. A source revealed, "Joshua and Lupita have only been dating for a short time. They are trying to keep their relationship low-key."

The insider mentioned that even though they have only been dating for a few weeks, they were friends before, which has laid a strong foundation for their relationship. Despite it being early days, things are progressing well.

Nyong's has since stated that she will not be publicly acknowledging her new relationship. Following a highly publicized romance with her ex, musician Selema Masekela, which ended in heartbreak last year, Nyong's revealed in an interview with Porter magazine in February that she will keep her new relationships private.

She mentioned that it was a wise decision for her to be open about her relationship with her ex on social media, especially since she is typically very private. She also added that she is returning to her past ways. Neither Turner-Smith nor Jackson have publicly commented on his new romance with Nyong'o.
