At the gala, Renee looked glamorous in a black dress with her blonde hair piled up. The Judy star flashed her toned legs as she wore high heels.

Ant was spiffy in a dark suit with a white shirt with a black bow tie.

Anstead shared on social media: ‘This is a lifetime of dreaming, a lifetime of hard work, a lifetime of learning, a lifetime of set backs and a lifetime of believing…. Last night @radfordmotors revealed our first ever car in collaboration with @lotuscars and I couldn’t be prouder!’

He shared images of the car as well.

‘Last night I told a story about a moment when I was 12 years old and I took an engine from an old lawn mower and made a go kart from an old wardrobe I cut with a hand saw,’ he said. 

‘As a child, totally free, not yet tainted by life’s set backs I would have always believed last night was possible!

‘I believe part of being creative, being a dreamer is to remember what you loved when you were a kid,’ the star added. ‘The art to growing up, is not growing up too much! These kids built a supercar……. ❤️’

In July it was reported that Zellweger was so serious about Anstead that she was moving her things into his home.

The Cold Mountain actress has been romancing the Wheeler Dealers host for just over two months, and is said to be so smitten with him already that she’s begun moving her things into his home so she can spend more time with her beau.

A source said: ‘Renee is already moving things into Ant’s house. He adores her and makes her feel safe.’

Renee and Ant began dating in June when they met after filming an episode of Celebrity IOU Joyride, Ant’s upcoming Discovery Plus series.

And although the romance is still new, the Bridget Jones’s Baby star has already met Ant’s youngest son, Hudson, whom he has with his ex-wife Christina.

The insider added: ‘Renee has met his youngest and [he] loves her too.

Renee is so great with kids and it warms Ant’s heart to see her be so good with [him].’

Alongside Hudson, Ant also has daughter Amelie, 17, and son Archie, 14, with ex-wife Louise Anstead.

Meanwhile, Ant’s close pal and Wheeler Dealers co-star Mike Brewer recently said the new couple are smitten with each other.

He said: ‘I think Renee has found her Prince Charming and Ant has found a real woman in Renee. He’s got a woman who cares about him, and he cares about her. They are both wonderful people and they deserve this happiness.

‘They just clicked, and the timing was right. They wanted to keep it private at first.

‘When you’re in a new relationship, you don’t know if it will work or not so you’re not sure if you should tell your friends or share it with your family.

‘But Renee is comfortable now with them being seen together, shopping at Home Depot or just doing the ordinary things other couples do.’

Christina has also moved on romantically. She is dating Joshua Hall.
