New couple alert! Shailene Woodley reportedly has a new boyfriend. "The Secret Life of the American Teenager" alum is romantically linked to Ben Volavola, a 26-year-old rugby player who currently plays for North Harbour in New Zealand.
The "Divergent" star was spotted cheering on him in New Zealand earlier this month. It's, however, not their first sighting together. They were spotted clubbing together in June and posing for a picture with a fan at a game in September.
The 25-year-old movie beauty has been in New Zealand filming her new movie "Adrift". The actress has been posting pictures on Instagram with a male companion whose face was not shown. One photo showed them cuddling in bed.
Another image saw the couple sitting next to each other while enjoying the New Zealand breathtaking views. "Pillars. are. everything. #pleaseshowupforsomeonetoday," she captioned a photo of their hands touching as he placed his on her jeans-clad thigh.
In a solo picture, she was seen taking an outdoor bath while taking in the stunning scenery. "Finding ways to celebrate small moments and breath, amidst spiraling chaos and wholesome fears, is a great contribution towards the revitalized health of our mental collective. #whatcanyoucelebratetodaynomatterhowdifficult," she wrote.
Back in 2015, Woodley visited New Zealand with then-boyfriend, musician Nahko Bear. They attended Taupo's Wanderlust festival together.
Shailene Woodley was last seen on the big screen in 2016's "The Divergent Series: Allegiant" and "Snowden". She was initially expected to return for a "Divergent" threequel but the movie was killed off after the second movie got lukewarm reception.
She went on to star in HBO's miniseries "Big Little Lies" and got her first Emmy nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actress. She lost the title to her own co-star Laura Dern.
Meanwhile, Ben Volavola will soon travel Europe with his teammates. Their stops include Italy, Ireland and Canada.
