Elliot Page and his new girlfriend Julia Shiplett made their red carpet debut at the Gucci Spring Summer 2026 photocall during the Milan Fashion Week on Tuesday.
This is the Umbrella Academy star’s first public relationship since he came out as a transgender man in December 2020.
Julia is an actress and appears on the Amazon Prime sitcom Overcompensating.
Elliot looked dapper for the event in a navy pinstripe blazer and dark trousers along with a white shirt.
Julia opted for a forest green striped blouse with a matching skirt and added height to her frame with a pair of black open toe heels.
Styling her locks into a bob, the actress completed her look for the event with a black handbag.

Elliot first confirmed his romance with Julia back in June when he posted a photo of them cuddling up on a rainbow-painted street.
Meanwhile Julia took the relationship social media official on her Insta Stories, where she affectionately put up a video of Elliot shirtless.
On top of the footage, which showed Elliot wading in what appeared to be some sort of spring, Julia wrote: ‘happy prideee.’
Before undergoing a gender transition, while still known as Ellen Page, Elliot publicly identified as a lesbian and came out of the closet on Valentine’s Day 2014.
In 2018, the Juno star tied the knot with Emma Portner, who was publicly supportive when Elliot announced he was trans in December 2020.
By January 2021, Emma and Elliot revealed they were divorcing, while clarifying they had actually been separated since the previous summer.
Although Julia is his first public girlfriend since his transition, Elliot revealed two years ago that he had been enjoying an active love life in private.
‘It’s the most fun I’ve ever had dating. Interacting with people feels so much easier and more connected, because I’m not feeling lost in myself and not seen in the right way,’ he told the Los Angeles Times in June 2023.

Prior to marrying Emma, Elliot’s pre-transition dating history included actresses Samantha Jones, Olivia Thirlby and Kate Mara.
In his memoir Pageboy, he also revealed that during his 20s – while still known as Ellen – he carried on a secret romance with a closeted actress for two years.
‘We never touched outside, we barely went to dinner. She was in my phone under the name “Ryan,”‘ he disclosed in the autobiography.
On the work front, Elliot’s upcoming movies include an adaptation of The Odyssey by Christopher Nolan, whom he previously worked for on the 2010 film Inception.

Like their previous collaboration, The Odyssey is a star-studded production featuring Matt Damon as Odysseus and Tom Holland as his son Telemachus.
The cast also includes a glittering roster of Hollywood names like Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, Anne Hathaway, Charlize Theron and Lupita Nyong’o.
Shooting began in February and remains ongoing, with the finished film currently projected for release over the summer of 2026.
