They've been spotted out and about for around a year.

Colin Farrell and his mystery girlfriend packed on the PDA as they sat ringside at the Anthony Joshua Vs Carlos Takam boxing match.

The pair have been spotted out and about for months now, but have not publicly commented on their romance or confirmed the woman’s identity.

But they appeared to only have eyes for each other as they sat ringside at Anthony Joshua’s boxing match against Carlos Takam in Wales on Saturday.

The 41-year-old Dubliner was there to cheer on Bray’s Katie Taylor, who defeated Anahi Sanchez at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff to become the WBA lightweight champion.

The Forgotten Beasts star was snapped shaking hands with Katie and wished her luck before her fight.

He later compared her win to the similar successes of Conor McGregor.

He told Sky Sports:

“She was already a national hero – she probably would be in any country in the world.

“Obviously for ourselves, an island country with a population of just over 4 million, but this goes into England, because this is a sporting achievement that goes beyond the boundaries of our country and goes into the international world.

“What she’s achieved is like what McGregor has achieved, or McGuigan or Steve Collins have achieved.

“Like them, she is more than a national hero. It’s just incredible.”
