Emma Roberts and her boyfriend Cody John, whom she started dating in 2022 following her breakup with Garrett Hedlund, were pictured courtside during Wednesday’s Chicago Bulls vs. New York Knicks game at Madison Square Garden.

The two opted for elevated casuals, with Emma in jeans and a graphic tee and Cody in black pants and high-top Converse sneakers.

Her most recent public appearance followed the celebration of her son Rhodes‘ third birthday.

Emma Roberts wore a vintage white t-shirt from The Brockum Collection for her courtside appearance. It featured a black and white picture of Paul McCartney from The Beatles printed on the front against a vibrant pop-art-style background.

The American Horror Story star wore her graphic tee underneath a black-and-purple striped cardigan for a playful and cozy winter touch.

She completed her casual courtside look with light-wash ripped denim jeans, fitted through the waist and thighs before gently flaring out at the hem. Her chic yet carefree appearance perfectly encapsulated her typically feminine, easygoing sense of style.

The 32-year-old actress chose a low-key look by styling her chic ensemble with large diamond hoops as her only accessory.

She then completed her outfit with brown high-heeled boots with square toes and towering block heels, giving her 5’2″ height an instant boost.

Her blonde hair was styled in pigtail braids, and her striking features were accentuated with minimal makeup that included a swipe of pink lipstick, mascara, and pink blush.

How Did Emma Roberts and Cody John Meet?

An Entertainment Tonight source claims that Emma Roberts and Cody John started dating in the summer of 2022.

They went public with their relationship in August of that year when Cody shared a black and white photo of them kissing on a yacht, with Emma in a printed bikini and Cody in just a pair of board shorts. He captioned the post, “sweet sweet.”

Their romance began just a few months after Emma Roberts’ three-year relationship with her baby daddy, Garrett Hedlund, ended in January 2022.

In December 2022, Roberts made their relationship official on Instagram by uploading a photo of them holding hands with their backs turned to the camera.

Since then, the two have been spotted out together more frequently.

A source told E! News that Roberts and John met through mutual “friends in the industry.”

“Emma loves Cody’s personality. He’s really funny and they have been having a good time together.”

The insider also said that they are “taking it slow” for Emma’s son with Hedlund, Rhodes. “Emma is cautious about bringing her son around new people,” the source continued, “but knows the day will come soon.”
