when I first saw the pictures that does not look like the same girl, the face is different and no tattoo's I guess he has a new woman,

I think the most shocking thing about these latest photos of Joaquin is not that it's with a new girl and or his "Doc Sportello" look either... it's the fact Joaquin hasn't got a cigarette in his hand! How rare!

Yeah, that's not Heather Christie. Ooh, don't know if he's ever dated a Brit before. They look happy. Hope the beard is for Inherent Vice!
Joaquin-and this isn't a criticism-doesn't seem to last too long with women, though. I think the last time he was in a serious relationship which he confirmed was in about 2005-ish. When he was dating Topaz Page-Green. They went out for about two years from around 2003-2005. Since then, he's been more guarded about his relationships, and they haven't really lasted as long. Not a criticism, just pointing something out. Maybe he prefers to focus on work.
Still,he seems happy right now. And yeah, I've just realised that's definitely not Heather Christie-she doesn't have the ankle tattoos Heather had. Someone said they broke up around December-before the pics in January came out. Apparently, the pictures had the wrong date on or something?
Anyway, looks like he's got someone new.

Hi Joy,

That's an interesting thought! I don't see it myself, looking at all the photos it looks like they were caught unawares to me... Joaquin even takes his arm from around Sophie when he spots they are being photographed... but i guess if you didn't really want to be seen you wouldn't go to a popular place like Venice beach during daylight Who knows! I'm sure Joaquin doesn't care!

Yeah, there's a fella around my way, who's not the full ticket, that likes to walk around the streets dressed like Joaquin in that photo... in mid-winter. I'll have to ask him if he's a Joaquin fan

Ha ha. It looks like he's been on the beach or something!
Kitten, maybe, but I can't see him giving them up straight away. It can take AGES to quit smoking and going cold turkey would not be enjoyable, especially if you've smoked for as long as Joaquin has!
I've heard some stuff online as to how they got together, if anyone's interested:
OK, from what I've heard Sophie Sumner was at the Oscars afterparty-according to her twitter, she was there-and she spent some time in LA afterwards, before coming back to London for a bit-she's a Brit-and then going back to LA just under a week ago. So, looks like they got together pretty recently!
Apparently-and again, this is something I've heard online-Heather Christie's dating someone new.
Anyway, let's see what happens. Though Joaquin will be filming Inherent Vice in the next few months. When his next films premiere, maybe we'll see if Sophie's with him, then.

Haha! I bet he doesn’t get to date talent-show winning models though, does he? I wonder why?



Maybe the beard is his 1970s one for ‘Inherent Vice’?




I still think there's something 'staged' about these photos. Doesn't he remove his arm to fish his keys out of his pocket? However, if they did hook up at the Oscars (or the BAFTAs?) then my feeling sorry for him being alone does make me feel like a bit of a *mug* Oh well...





PS: Why not post something instead of just reading? 30 lurkers!

Do you know, admin, I wouldn't be surprised at all by that!
From what I've heard, most people think this is kind of a casual thing. Since Joaquin's about to start filming, he might not want a serious relationship right now-he might just want to have fun. Anyway, I guess Joaquin and Sophie are the only people who'll really know what's going on, no matter how much we speculate.
I'm actually really looking forward to reading Inherent Vice-it looks pretty good. Maybe at the premieres of Low Life and Her, we'll see if Sophie accompanies Joaquin, or if he goes alone. Or with someone else.
Someone said-and I'm not sure if this is a rumour or not-that Heather Christie is dating someone new, by the way. Ah, well. Maybe she and Joaquin just weren't meant to be.
Still, let's see what happens with Sophie.
