Gerard Butler, 54, all smiles as he cozies up to Sports Illustrated ...
Gerard Butler appears to be smitten.
The Hollywood star, 54, was spotted beaming from ear to ear as he took a romantic stroll with much-younger swimsuit model Penny Lane, 29, in London on Tuesday.
The “Ugly Truth” actor was seen cozying up to the model — who is 25 years his junior — as they wandered through the posh Primrose Hill area — home to A-listers including Jude Law, Daniel Craig, and Kate Moss.
In images obtained by The Sun, Lane, who hails from Cheshire in north England, appeared just as smitten as the actor during their outing.
The cover star, who was voted Sports Illustrated Rookie of 2024, giggled as she massaged the actor’s shoulders in public.
The pair later stopped at a nearby pub for a quick drink. The duo ordered two Cokes to get them through the British heat.
Gerard opted for a casual look for the outing, donning a matching khaki ensemble. He topped off his look with a flat cap and Adidas sneakers.
For her part, Lane wore a pair of black yoga pants and a leather jacket adorned with gold stars atop a grey zip-up.
The Post has reached out to Butler’s reps for comment.
While Lane, who is based in New York, is fairly new to the spotlight, the model was prominently featured in Sports Illustrated this year.
In the magazine’s May issue, Lane was featured alongside Chrissy Teigen, Livvy Dunne, Gayle King, and Brittany Mahomes.
In the magazine’s profile for Lane, the model said she enjoys “outdoor adventures and extreme sports.”
She is also a holistic health coach, and is looking to kickstart an acting career — which her rumored new beau could lend some helpful advice on.
Lane previously appeared in the 2017 film “Justice League.”
According to her profile, she’s “gearing up to work on two different theatrical projects.”
Aside from her professional endeavors, Lane has kept her past romances out of the spotlight.
Butler, for his part, has had a colorful love life in the public eye throughout his silver screen career.
The actor was previously romantically linked to actresses such as Jennifer Aniston and Jessica Biel, as well as supermodel Naomi Campbell.
More recently, Butler was in a long-term relationship with interior designer Morgan Brown, 53.
The pair reportedly struck up a romance in 2014, which turned into an “on/off” union that lasted a total of 9 years.
The duo were understood to have gone their separate ways again in 2020, with Butler telling the Courier Mail at the time, “I went through a break-up during [Covid] so I lost a loved one in a different way, and that’s been very hard, much harder than I thought.”
Butler also revealed that he underwent several surgeries at that time which stemmed from his 2017 motorbike crash.
“I had a surgery that went wrong, which then became seven surgeries. I had a motorcycle accident that almost killed me and I suddenly thought, ‘There has to be something more,'” he told the outlet.
