Natalie's ensemble was further elevated by a tasselled mini skirt that showcased her toned legs, complemented by chic silver heels that added a touch of elegance to her frame. 

Her top featured a sophisticated beaded neckline, and she accessorized with classic pearl earrings, enhancing her timeless beauty.

Natalie seemed to relish the fun evening, especially after quietly finalizing her divorce from Benjamin Millepied in March amid rumors of his infidelity. 

Meanwhile, Paul, 28, has been open about his admiration for Natalie, and it was evident he was thrilled to spend time with her.

Their bond has clearly grown since their initial meeting. During their interview, Paul praised Natalie, calling her "brilliant" and expressing his awe at being able to converse with her, stating, "If my drama school self knew that I would be talking to you, I would pinch myself many, many times!"

Paul also lauded Natalie's performance in May December,  particularly her steamy scenes with younger co-star Charles Melton, 33.

 In the film, Natalie plays Elizabeth, an actress researching a scandalous relationship between Gracie (Julianne Moore) and Joe (Charles), which began when she was 36 and he was 13.

In turn, Natalie complimented Paul's intimate scenes with Andrew Scott in "All of Us Strangers," describing them as "very hot but also very tender."

The exact nature of Natalie and Paul's relationship remains unknown. HELLO! has reached out to their representatives for comment.

In honor of her birthday recently, Natalie took to Instagram and shared a carousel of photos featuring some of her closest friends who have been supporting her throughout the difficult year.

"This year, on my birthday, I want to celebrate my gratitude for my friends who lift me up again and again," the Oscar winner wrote in her caption.
