However, Bill previously has squashed rumours of a dalliance between them, according to MailOnline. When asked about his relationship with Anna back in 2015, he said: “Obviously I have nothing to say about that. There are a lot of rumors about me and probably about Anna Wintour.”
Their public outing comes nearly a year on from Anna’s high-profile split from her telecoms tycoon husband, Shelby Bryan. The former couple called it quits in October 2020 after 21 years together.
