Love is in the air! Josh Brolin and fiancée Kathryn Boyd walk hand-in-hand as they return home from Italy

They put on an elegant display on the red carpet of the Venice Film Festival earlier this week. 

But Josh Brolin and his fiancée Kathryn Boyd made a low-key entrance when they touched down into LAX on Friday, holding hands.

The 47-year-old actor carried a shopping bag and donned a casual shirt as he steered the way through the transport hub for his former assistant.

Josh also wore a sporty hat and a pair of sunglasses, and he topped off the low-key look with dark grey trousers and suede shoes. 

Like the actor, Kathryn was dressed down for the flight back to LA as well.

She let her natural beauty shine with just a touch of makeup, and wore her sunny blonde hair down in beachy waves.

The onetime model also elongated her height with a neutral pair of suede ankle boots, tight ripped jeans, and a black scarf looped around her neck. 

Josh's other half also clutched her boarding pass and her passport.

The actor's luck has changed after 2013, a year that saw him put behind bars for several hours for public intoxication, the end of his nearly ten year marriage to Diane Lane, and a stay in rehab.

Josh recently told the Belfast Telegraph that he is 'way happier' now, a change that has not gone unnoticed by his two adult children, Eden and Trevor Brolin, 27.

The actor's children are from his previous marriage to Alice Adair, which ended in 1994 after six years. 

Addressing his series of misfortune in 2013, the actor said to the website: 'Everyone says that, we do changes in our life and then we say, when we are on the other side, "I'm happier now." But I tell you, where I see it is [when I'm] with my kids.

'When you hear it from your kids, it's a different deal, and I see it. I see the trust in my kids' eyes. They've actually told me it's different and it's a good thing.'

Josh's engagement to his former assistant was revealed in May, after a two year romance. 

And the star's career continues to go from strength to strength, with the release of the upcoming films Everest and Sicario later this year.
