The 500 Days of Summer star and her boyfriend have been a couple since August 2019.

Deschanel gushed about her partner having similar values to her in April in another Instagram post, where she praised his love of nature.

‘After much discussion and a long period of contemplation we have decided we are better off as friends, business partners and co-parents rather than life partners,’ the former couple told Us in a statement at the time.
‘We remain committed to our business, our values and most of all our children. Thank you for respecting our privacy at this time.’
Deschanel was previously married to Death Cab for Cutie frontman Ben Gibbard, although their marriage only lasted from 2009 until 2012.
