Shailene Woodley and Ben Volavola are not hiding their relationship despite her coy Instagram pictures. They were photographed packing on public display of affection in Auckland. The couple couldn't keep their hands off each other. The "Divergent" actress looked smitten with her new boyfriend.
Woodley cheered on the rugby player during one of his trainings. Joined by two female friends, the star was bundled up in blue jeans, a red jacket and matching scarf. She completed her cosy outfit with a North Harbour beanie to show support for his team. The new lovebirds sneaked in kisses during his breaks.
In some other pictures, the 25-year-old blonde movie beauty ditched her jacket and beanie. She cuddled her beau during the outing. At one point, he grabbed her booty while they were locking lips. The actress wore a sleeveless top while the athlete traded his jersey with a black T-shirt, khaki shorts and a backward cap.
Shailene Woodley was first spotted with Ben Volavola, 26, over the summer. They were seen clubbing together in June and posing for a picture with a fan at a game in September. She was in New Zealand filming her new movie "Adrift". She has been posting Instagram pictures with her new beau while keeping his identity secret.
Woodley previously dated musician Nahko Bear. Back in 2015, they attended Taupo's Wanderlust festival together in New Zealand. Meanwhile, Volavola reportedly has just split from model Jacqueline Wieser.
"Torn, heartbroken and humiliated," the model posted cryptic messages on Instagram soon after her ex's new relationship was revealed. "Thank you everyone for all the love. I can't reply to everyone but thank you from the bottom of my heart."
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.
