Jessica Chastain celebrated her Oscar nomination last night at a pre-cermony party with her boyfriend Gian Luca Passi de Preposulo, marking it as their first public appearance as a couple.

The Zero Dark Thirty star has never denied dating someone, but she had never been spotted with him in public together until now. When pressed about whether or not she has a boyfriend on Katie, the 35 year-old answered, "I do. But I will say I have a rule I don't date actors, so he's not in the business, at all… He’s in the fashion industry." Passi de Preposulo works as a manager for outwear designer Moncler.

The pair were seen Friday night at Fig & Olive in Los Angeles, where Chastain chatted with her The Help co-star Viola Davis and Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe.
