The two were first spotted together in 2021 and have managed to stay fairly private about their relationship by celebrity standards.

In March 2022, Taylor-Joy opened up about her love for McRae in an interview with British Vogue.

“I said to my partner [the musician and actor Malcolm McRae] the other day that he was my hobby. I see reading as something that I have to do,” Taylor-Joy told the magazine. “He loved it because he’s the same. I’ve finally found someone who will happily sit in silence with me reading. We’re basically 80 years old and seven at the same time and it works really well.”
