Split rumors have been swirling since Taika and Chelsea didn’t pose together while promoting their film “Jojo Rabbit.” The only pic of them together is from a Golden Globes party in January, which was a group shot.

Chelsea has also hinted at the split over the past few months. In response to a portrait of her with Taika, she tweeted, “#notmyhusband.”

Winstanley also shared a photo of herself with her mom at the Oscars. She wrote on Instagram, “This is a better one of my stunning mama date!! Way better date than a seat filler! (for those of who who have sent me sweet uplifting messages you know what I mean 😉 ).”

In 2018, Chelsea mentioned her relationship with Taika, telling the New Zealand Herald, “I’m just sick of women portrayed as living in the shadow of their partners, that’s all. I made one film with him, I was a film-maker before I met him and I continue to do my own stuff.”

According to the outlet, Taika and Chelsea met when she interviewed him for a documentary about Māori artists in the early ‘00s. They reconnected in 2010 and marry two years later.
