The lovebirds then headed to the Chiltern Firehouse after his show, and the Lord of the Rings actor recently gushed over the songstress in an interview with The Times, calling her a 'remarkable human'.
Talking to the publication, he said: 'She’s a remarkable human being, actually.'
'I wouldn’t have imagined anything happening. And, you know, when you get hit sideways you get hit sideways,' he added. 'You don’t pick who you fall in love with.'
The sweet comments come after a source told People magazine that the couple are 'more serious than ever' since spending a year apart.
