As Adrien Brody looks to repeat an Oscar win in the coveted Best Actor category — one in which he holds the record as the youngest winner at 29 — The Brutalist star has all but swept the precursor awards leading up to cinema’s biggest night. He clinched the title at the Golden Globes, Critics Choice Awards and BAFTA Film Awards, but Sunday night faced an upset with a surprise win by Timothée Chalamet for A Complete Unknown at the SAG Awards. Should the French American upstart take the Oscar, he would unseat Brody’s record by several months. (Fun fact: Both attended the famed performing arts hub LaGuardia High School.)
And while there has been much talk around town about The Brutalist, viewers might be surprised to know that the role — Brody’s triumphant return to leading man status after roughly two decades — was in part thanks to his girlfriend, who encouraged him to return to acting after he took a hiatus beginning in 2018.

Dedicated to his craft as a veteran actor, Brody has kept his half-decade-long relationship to London-born fashion designer and actress Georgina Chapman relatively separate from his high-profile career. Chapman was first linked to Brody in early 2020. Read on for more details about their relationship:
Chapman was born to a journalist mother and businessman father, who co-owns the Percol coffee brand. She grew up in the affluent, Thames River-bordering town of Richmond, England, eventually attending the Chelsea College of Art and Design and graduating from Wimbledon College of Arts. Initially beginning her career in modeling and costume design, Chapman, along with former peer Keren Craig, launched fashion label Marchesa, which specializes in womenswear. Over the years Chapman has also racked up credits as an actress, most notably appearing as herself in Gossip Girl and as a mainstay judge for Project Runway All Stars.

When did Georgina Chapman and Adrien Brody meet?
Per reports, the couple was first linked together in April 2019 while attending a dinner in Puerto Rico for the launch of model Helena Christensen’s swimwear line at the Dorado Beach Ritz-Carlton Reserve.
Chapman confirmed the meeting to Vogue this year, saying, “So the first evening we had a joint birthday party, blowing out candles together, and weirdly we even had almost matching outfits, we were wearing the same print.” (Coincidentally, the two share the same birthdate — April 14, three years apart — which Chapman marked in a sweet tribute last year: “Happy birthday my darling twin…so happy to share this day with my best friend #twins #birthday #loveyou,” she said.)

According to People, Chapman and Brody’s relationship was confirmed in February of 2020 through an unnamed source that claimed the two had shared interests and were driven by a similar passion for their occupations.
The two later made their red carpet debut at the Tribeca Film Festival in June 2021, when the duo attended the premiere of Brody’s action crime thriller Clean. They were photographed arm-in-arm, as Brody donned a dapper maroon suit while Chapman sported an embroidered and gold-accented floral top and sheer black skirt.
Since then, the two have made occasional outings at notable events for Brody’s films, like the Cannes premiere of Wes Anderson’s The French Dispatch a month later in July 2021 and the Venice premiere of Ana de Armas’ Marilyn Monroe drama Blonde in September 2022. They have also been photographed at romantic dinners, while on vacation in Saint-Tropez, during Paris Fashion Week and on the red carpet at the Met Gala. Most recently, Chapman supported Brody at the 2025 Golden Globes and SAG Awards earlier this week.
During his Globe win, he shouted out Chapman in an emotional speech, saying: "To my beautiful and amazing partner Georgina, your generosity of spirit, your own resilience, your immense creativity are a daily reminder of how to be. I would not be standing here before you if it wasn't for you. There was a time not too long ago that I felt that this may never be a moment afforded to me again, so thank you." He repeated the dedication during his subsequent wins at the Critics Choice ceremony and the BAFTAs, calling Chapman “an angel.”
Chapman celebrated the latter fete on Instagram, writing alongside a picture of the two as Brody held up his award, “What a night to remember in my home town. So proud of you!”

Though both Brody and Chapman are active on social media, the former has yet to post about his relationship and the latter has previously shared selected photos of the couple, often at industry events.
In Brody’s sprawling profile with Vogue, Chapman said of the Peaky Blinders actor: “He was a kid from Queens who really embraced the culture of the streets. Yet he also carries a very European elegance, which gives this wonderful complexity.” She added of his approach to his craft: “He’s incredibly raw emotionally, but he’s not pretentious. He doesn’t bring his ego into play, and I think this is what allows him to inhabit a role in such a pure way.”
Though The Grand Budapest Hotel actor has expressed frustration with media attention, telling Variety, “We got photographed leaving the plane here. We get photographed leaving the hotel. We get photographed every minute,” he also added that he “greatly appreciate[s] having a partner with a similar sensibility and understanding of the creative process, of creative yearnings, and not in the same field. And so there’s a [shared] perspective that’s very intuitive. It’s been lovely to have a friend and a confidant, and someone with good instincts.”
Chapman also described their bucolic home life in upstate New York, at the Stone Barn Castle, which has an art studio for the Succession actor and is home to her two children, ailing mother and what Brody calls a “whole menagerie of animals,” including four cats, two donkeys, three horses and a small white dog named Ziggy. (Brody said they used to have a “very sweet” rat that “didn’t make it.”)Was Georgina Chapman married before she met Adrien Brody?
Before embarking on a romance with Brody, Chapman was married to disgraced film producer and media mogul Harvey Weinstein, leaving him in 2017 as he became increasingly embroiled in sexual abuse allegations by several dozens of women. (He is currently serving a prison sentence at Rikers Island as he awaits retrial in New York.) Chapman’s divorce from Weinstein was finalized in 2021.
“I had what I thought was a very happy marriage. I loved my life,” Chapman told Vogue in 2018. “There was a part of me that was terribly naive. I have moments of rage, I have moments of confusion, I have moments of disbelief! And I have moments when I just cry for my children. What are their lives going to be?”
Do Georgina Chapman and Adrien Brody have children?
No. However, Chapman has two children with ex-husband Weinstein: daughter India, born in 2010, and son Dashiell, born three years later. While Chapman has kept details about her kids relatively private, she did mention to Vogue in 2018 that her children love animals, leading to her decision to “move to a farm upstate. My daughter loves riding; my son responds to animals. I need to build a farm.”
“She’s obsessed [with horses],” Chapman said. “And when she’s not with a horse she’s pretending to be a horse. I’ve had to look at my life, and maybe I’m going to create something better for my children out of this.”
