James Marsden and Frederique Brons had an enchanting date night.
The couple made their red carpet debut as a couple at the 2025 Emmys Sept. 14, nearly two years after they were first romantically linked.
The Paradise actor, 51, looked dapper in a Ralph Lauren Purple Label tuxedo that featured a double-breasted white dinner jacket and black pants. Meanwhile, the 27-year-old model stunned in a gold column halter dress with her hair pulled back. She completed her look with a matching purse and drop earrings.
The pair were all smiles while holding hands as they posed for photographers ahead of the ceremony.
While this is the first time that James and Frederique have appeared on a red carpet together, this isn’t the first public event that they’ve attended together this year, as the Jury Duty actor and the Dutch influencer attended both the US Open and the French Open.
James—who shares son Jack, 24, and daughter Mary, 20, with ex-wife Lisa Linde, as well as son William, 12, with ex Rose Costa—tends to keep his personal life private and has yet to speak on his romance with Frederique, but he did once provide some insight into how he approaches relationships.
“I find as I get older I’m more traditional and old-fashioned,” the Westworld alum told Cosmopolitan in 2015. “I prefer face to face conversation as opposed to texting. You need to go out of your way to spend good time with one another, you need to have a date night. Whether you have kids or a career or whatever, for a relationship to thrive, it’s about making time for each other.”
That said, the actor hasn’t been shy about how much joy he finds in being a dad. In fact, he once said that “being a father is the one thing I’m most proud of.”
“It is the most fulfilling,” James told Men’s Health back in 2018. “I’m always self-deprecating, but I don’t have a problem saying that I am a great dad.”
James and Frederique weren’t the only couple to walk the red carpet at the 2025 Emmys. Keep reading for more pairs that attended TV’s biggest night together…
