Alike his trickster character of demigod Loki in the Marvel franchise, English actor Tom Hiddleston preferred to play tricks on his relationship confirmation too. Ever since the Golden Globe winner broke up with the Blank Space singer Taylor Swift after a brief romance in 2016, he barely nodded his head on any dating story.
But it was until 2021; no one thought his alleged relationship with actress girlfriend Zawe Ashton would saw a red-carpet officiation. Although Hiddleston saw showers of claims that he and his Betrayal co-star Ashton developed off-screen chemistry shortly after the Broadway, it took a 2-year long haul before they publicly admitted it.
