The report suggests the three-day romantic getaway has sparked rumours that the celebrity couple flew 4,000 miles for the short trip, which The Sun's sources have described as 'particularly special' for the couple. An insider has told the news outlet that going that far 'just for a few days clearly meant a lot to them.'

The insider told that it feels like 'things are getting more serious and people think an engagement could be on the cards.' Adding to this, the source also revealed that the couple, who are certainly happy and enjoying their time together, have lived together throughout lockdown and that has made things all the more serious between them.'

As per a report by Dailymail, it is believed that for maximum privacy, the pair has rented a house in the area rather than staying in a hotel room.

They have been very private about their relationship, however, they have fuelled both engagement and marriage rumours over the course of the past year. In September 2018, the actor talked with British Vogue about their decision to keep the relationship private. Several months later, he also continued to defend to Esquire why they have decided to not make their relationship public. He said that he did not seek out advice on that when he was asked whether he had received advice about navigating a high-profile relationship.
