Jason Oppenheim was every inch the doting boyfriend as he carried his girlfriend Jessica Vargas’ bags while heading to the amfAR Gala during Cannes Film Festival.

The Selling Sunset star, 48, cut a suave figure in a classic black tuxedo as he stepped out alongside his stunning partner for the glitzy event on Thursday.

Proving himself to be the perfect gentleman, Jason carried two bags for Jessica, who he’s been romantically linked to since April, as they proved they are still going strong.

Jessica showed off her incredible figure in a busty white gown adorned with delicate silver embellishments.

She styled her auburn locks in an elegant up-do, leaving two strands to frame her face, and completed her look with a slick of dark pink lipstick.

The couple were seen leaving their H๏τel and hopping into a taxi en-route to the event at H๏τel du Cap-Eden-Roc, which raises money for HIV/AIDS research. 

At the fundraiser, the couple looked happier than ever as they struck up a series of loved-up poses on the red carpet.

The couple first confirmed their relationship on the red carpet for The Accountant 2 on April 16. 

A few days later, they made their romance Instagram official with a series of pH๏τos of them hiking in the desert and attending red carpet events.

Jason was previously linked to German model Marie-Lou Nurk, but the couple went their separate ways in May 2023 after 10 months together.

At the time, he told DailyMail.com: ‘I’m just enjoying kind of taking a step back from dating. I’m not eager to be back into a relationship or anything serious.

‘I’m just enjoying my time right now. I’m genuinely happy. I’m not really dating.’

Jason and Marie-Lou’s relationship had featured heavily in Selling Sunset’s seventh season, which was released in the November.

However, the former couple had parted ways long before the series was released, and issued a joint statement to announce their ‘amicable’ split. 

‘While we still love and care about each other very much, the distance between us has proven to be too great a challenge to overcome,’ the statement read.

‘We remain close friends and continue to talk often and support each other and we want the very best for one another.

‘We thank everyone for their support throughout our relationship.’

This year’s Cannes Film Festival is taking place in the wake of US Ppesident Donald Trump’s vow to enact tariffs on international films.

Cannes, where filmmakers, sales agents and journalists gather from around the world, is the Olympics of the big screen, with its own golden prize, the Palme d’Or, to give out at the end.

In November 2023, Jason revealed he was single after splitting from German model Marie-Lou Nurk in May after 10 months together

Filmmakers come from nearly every corner of the globe to showcase their films while dealmakers work through the night to sell finished films or packaged productions to various territories.

But Trump sent shock waves through Hollywood and the international film community when he announced on May 4 that all movies ‘produced in Foreign Lands’ will face 100 per cent tariffs.

The White House has said no final decisions have been made. Options being explored include federal incentives for US-based productions, rather than tariffs.

This year, some of the first-time filmmakers at Cannes are already particularly well-known.

Kristen Stewart (The Chronology of Water), Scarlett Johansson (Eleanor the Great) and Harris Dickinson (Urchin) have all unveiled their feature directorial debuts in Cannes’ Un Certain Regard sidebar section.

Many Cannes veterans have returned, including Tom Cruise (Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning), Robert De Niro – who received an honorary Palme d´Or 49 years after Taxi Driver premiered in Cannes – and Quentin Tarantino, who paid tribute to low-budget Western director George Sherman.
