Elliot Page shares heartwarming Pride moment with new love Julia Shiplett

Over the weekend, Elliot Page posted an adorable photo showing him snuggled up close to his new partner, the American actress Julia Shiplett. What's special about it? In the background, a street shines in all the colors of the rainbow! This is, of course, no coincidence, as June is celebrated worldwide as Pride Month to give visibility and love to queer people and to raise awareness of discrimination. In the caption, Page fittingly placed a rainbow emoji and two hearts.

Who is the lucky one?

The woman who has captured Elliot's heart is Julia Shiplett (also 38), an actress known for her role in "Overcompensation," among others. She also didn't miss the chance to share her joy. In her Instagram story, she showed Elliot briefly shirtless in a hot spring and wrote "Happy prideee," perfectly capturing the festive mood. A truly heartwarming duo!

A new chapter for Elliot

For the Canadian star, this is the first public relationship since his separation from actress Emma Portner five years ago. The two were a couple from 2017 to 2020 and married from 2018 to 2021. Elliot Page came out as trans in 2020 and changed his first name to Elliot. His role as Vanya Hargreeves in "The Umbrella Academy" was also rewritten as a trans man, Victor Hargreeves, after his coming out – an important step for representation in the mainstream.

Before his coming out, Elliot Page was internationally known as Ellen Page through films like "X-Men: The Last Stand" and "Juno." It is wonderful to see how he leads a fulfilling and authentic life both professionally and personally, sharing his love with the world.
