Alexa Chung certainly turned heads this week, sharing a series of captivating and intimate photographs on her social media platforms. The television presenter and style icon, aged 42, posted a racy snap on Thursday that featured her posing in a sheer black negligee, creating a sultry and glamorous display.
A Leggy Display in Lingerie
In the striking image, Alexa is seen reclining on a double bed, surrounded by a heart-shaped arrangement of delicate white rose petals. The black negligee she wore was entirely sheer, putting her toned legs on full display in a bold and confident fashion statement. Her brunette locks cascaded loosely over her shoulders, adding to the effortless chic of the scene, while a pair of stylish grey heels completed the ensemble.
Wardrobe Fittings and Fashion Flair
Another photograph shared by the model showcased her in a vibrant green negligee, which featured eye-catching yellow trimming along both the neckline and hemline. This snap appeared to be taken during a wardrobe fitting, as Alexa was also sporting a dark brown leather jacket while posing thoughtfully in front of a mirror. She accessorised this look with a pair of light pink open-toe heels, demonstrating her renowned fashion sensibility.
The post was captioned with the playful phrase 'Galentine'z etc.', hinting at a celebration of female friendship and perhaps an early nod to Valentine's Day festivities. Beyond the lingerie shots, Alexa also posted a cosy snap of herself hugging socialite Lola Bute at a dinner table surrounded by friends, as well as a more casual image where she wore a dark green T-shirt paired with black trousers.
Engagement Rumours and Wedding Plans
These glamorous posts come amidst ongoing speculation about Alexa Chung's personal life, particularly her relationship with actor Tom Sturridge. Reports emerged in 2024 suggesting that the couple had become engaged, sparking considerable media interest and fan excitement.
Rumours of an engagement first began circulating in 2023, when the pair were spotted wearing matching rings in October of that year. A source close to the couple subsequently told The Sun: 'Alexa has confirmed to her friends that she is indeed engaged to Tom and she is over the moon. She is in a great place and seems completely head over heels for him. They're a great match.'
Planning a Classy Celebration
The same insider revealed that the couple are actively planning their wedding, describing it as a 'smaller, classier and cooler bash' rather than a large, extravagant affair. They are said to be 'hard at work planning a wedding with all of their close pals there', indicating an intimate and personal celebration.
In February last year, Alexa fuelled the engagement speculation further when she attended Paris Fashion Week wearing bridal white and flashing a ring on her wedding finger. Tom Sturridge, the son of award-winning film director Charles Sturridge, has previously expressed openness to marriage, while Alexa herself once mused: 'I just don't get why marriage is different from non-marriage — I just don't get it.'
When approached for comment on the engagement rumours, Alexa's spokesperson declined to provide any additional details. The couple first went public with their romance when they attended day seven of the Wimbledon Championships together, accompanied by Tom's ex-partner Sienna Miller, with whom he shares a 12-year-old daughter named Marlowe. Sienna has since welcomed a baby girl with her current boyfriend, Oli Green.
