The Weeknd and Angelina Jolie draw attention to dating rumors
“The couple reportedly spent hours at the restaurant, before leaving separately so as not to arouse suspicion,” claims The Sun.
The duo may have bonded over their shared love of Ethiopia: the Canadian-born singer’s parents are from Ethiopia, while Angelina adopted daughter Zahara Marley, 16, from the East African country.
The “Blinding Lights” artist shared his thoughts on Ethiopia’s current struggles on Instagram in April.
“My heart breaks for my people of Ethiopia as innocent civilians from young children to the elderly are being senselessly killed and entire villages are being displaced by fear and destruction,” the 31-year-old star explained
“I will be donating $1 million to provide 2 million meals through the United Nations World Food Program and will encourage those who can to contribute as well,” she continued.
At the date night, the 46-year-old actress kept it simple in a beige trench coat, black top and nude pink heels. She wore her hair straight and loose and completed the look with a clutch and a face mask.
The Weeknd opted for a head-to-toe dark denim suit. Underneath the jacket, he wore a black T-shirt and necklace, and black boots.
Angelina has been embroiled in a child custody dispute with ex-husband Brad Pitt for nearly five years.
The 46-year-old actress filed for divorce from Brad on September 19, 2016.
