Michelle Yeoh, the star of “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” and her longtime boyfriend, Jean Todt, attended the Academy Awards on March 12. Before the screening, the two shared a photo and Todt sat next to her as they praised the film’s many achievements. At the ceremony, “Everything Everywhere All at Once” received 11 nominations, and it took home a whopping seven of them, including best picture and best actress for Yeoh. The 60-year-old actress was nominated for the first time. Yeoh shared a cute picture of herself and Todt holding her Oscar on Instagram after the ceremony. The two also went together to the Vanity Fair Oscars party.
Yeoh and Todt, both 77, began dating in 2004. At the time, Todt was the general manager and CEO of Scuderia Ferrari, Ferrari’s racing division. He later became the head of Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile, aka FIA, the governing body that rules over many racing events, including Formula One. He ended his term as president in 2021. Since 2015, he’s also served as the UN’s special envoy for road safety. Before he became a racing executive, Todt, who’s French, was a Rally car codriver. His son from his previous marriage, Nicolas Todt, is also involved with racing.
Yeoh previously wed Dickson Poon, a businessman from Hong Kong; their marriage ended in divorce in 1992. She was also engaged to cardiologist Alan Heldman prior to dating Todt. Todt has supported Yeoh throughout award season and was Yeoh’s date at the BAFTA Awards in February. On social media, he has been outspoken about his support for her. For example, Todt tweeted, “So proud of Michelle, just nominated by the Academy Award in the category of best actress for an Oscar!” when the Oscar nominations were announced back in January. Yeoh and her partner are frequently seen together at UN and racing events.
