Freida Pinto and Dev Patel are 'soul mates', according to the director who made them famous, Danny Boyle.
Talking about the Slumdog Millionaire stars at the Bafta LA Britannia Awards in Hollywood, the Oscar-winning filmmaker said: "I was a bit surprised at first, but then those things tend to pass me by!"
He added: "I'm delighted for them, they seem to be real soul mates... and I'm sure more than that."
The couple - who have never confirmed they are an item - posed for photos with Danny at the glitzy bash, but rushed inside to the party before reporters could speak with them.
"I'm very happy for them - it seems lovely," Danny told journalists.
But as for any possible wedding bells, the director said he'd be the last to catch on.
"Oh I've no idea, I'm a terrible person to ask about that, I can't give you any gossip on that front I'm afraid," he laughed.
