Filmmaker Ava DuVernay Debuts Boyfriend At The Oscars – Here’s What We Know About Her Mystery Man

#AvaDuVernay has stepped out with a new man! The award-winning filmmaker went public with her relationship Sunday night at the Academy Awards.

While Ava didn’t reveal her boyfriend’s name, here’s what we know: he makes an appearance in her end-of-year recap post for 2025, which she captioned, “As I grow older, what’s expanded my heart most is connection with other passionate humans who share this miracle we call Life.” The couple also reportedly attended the CHANEL and Charles Finch Annual Pre-Oscar Dinner at the Beverly Hills Hotel the night before the Oscars.

Her boyfriend is said to be a very private 54-year-old professional pilot who spends his days flying wealthy clients around the world for an upscale aircraft company. The pair have been quietly dating for some time, making this the first time in years that Ava has publicly shared her relationship.
