However, just a few months after production for the film came to an end, the pair were spotted enjoying a trip to Ana's native Cuba together, followed by a romantic getaway to Costa Rica. Following their headline-making outings, a source close to the couple confirmed to US Weekly in March 2020 that they were officially a couple.
