Jason Statham and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s romance: from a generation apart to endearing children

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Jason Statham are still going strong, having been together for 14 years.

They’ve been engaged since 2016 and plan on marrying eventually, however, the mum of two has said they are in no rush to get down the aisle.

“I think the time will come,” she told Extra shortly after welcoming their son, Jack, 5.

“We’ve been so focused on our work for long and Jack came along, we definitely talk about it. We’re looking forward to that time. It’s also not a huge priority for us. We’re so happy.”

She added, “I think it will be fun to do it when the baby’s grown up a bit and he can be involved in the wedding.”

Here’s a look inside their long-term romance…

The supermodel, 36, and the Fast & Furious star, 55, first began dating in 2009 after meeting at a party. Rosie said: “It was instant chemistry.” They got engaged in 2016.

During a 2013 interview with Glamour, Rosie shared what initially attracted her to Jason and why their 20-year age gap doesn’t matter to her. “His knowledge and strength are really inspiring and attractive, and that can come with a man who’s had a bit of time,” she said.

She added: “We have a connection that has nothing to do with age. Work comes and goes, but if you have someone at home who thinks you’re the greatest person in the world, that keeps you going.” They made their red carpet debut at the 2011 Vanity Fair Oscar Party.

At the 2016 Golden Globes, Rosie debuted her stunning engagement ring as she walked the red carpet with Jason. The model paired the piece — a 20th-century round stone set on a diamond and platinum band — with a glittering golden Atelier Versace gown.

In February 2017, Rosie debuted her baby bump on Instagram and confirmed that she and Jason were going to be parents. Alongside a picture of herself posing in a bikini during a tropical vacation, the model wrote, “Very happy to share that Jason and I are expecting!”

The couple’s son, Jack Oscar, was born on June 24, 2017. The new mum shared the news on Instagram, posting a black-and-white photo of her newborn’s tiny hand holding hers. “Our little man arrived! Jack Oscar Statham – 8.8lbs on Saturday June 24th,” she wrote in the caption.

A few years after welcoming Jack, the couple shared the happy news that their family was growing. The actress posted a carousel of mirror selfies, ending with a photo of her baby bump. “Taaa daahhh !! #round2,” she wrote.

On February 2, 2022, they welcomed their daughter, Isabella James. The model shared the news on Instagram, posting a sweet photo of the baby’s hand peeking out from her bassinet. A few weeks after Isabella’s birth, she told fans she was “feeling very well” and enjoying life as a mum of two. “Second time round I feel much more confident and relaxed,” she shared on Instagram. “Mentally and physically I have felt better too. Truly feeling very grateful for these days with my family.”
