Ant Anstead and Renée Zellweger began dating in 2021 after meeting on the set of Celebrity IOU Joyride. Anstead hosted the show, which featured celebrities gifting refurbished cars to someone special in their lives, and Zellweger was one of the celebrity guests.

“Renée and my relationship is something that’s really private,” Anstead told People later that year. “It’s something I’m not really willing to talk too much about. It’s really early in our relationship and I don’t want to put any pressure on that.”
