Ana de Armas appeared to give her romance with Venezuelan musician Beto Montenegro its biggest public moment yet as they arrived hand-in-hand for the Louis Vuitton show in Paris on 6 October. After months of sightings across Spain, the actress and musician suddenly looked very much like a fashion week couple, and social media was quick to weigh in.
Among the reactions to the pair was one particularly unexpected question: 'Rich or funny?' Another commenter joked, 'He must be very rich', turning a glamorous couple appearance into a rather different conversation about the man walking beside the Knives Out star.
Their Paris Couple Debut
Ana and Beto arrived together ahead of Louis Vuitton's Spring/Summer 2027 show during Paris Fashion Week, holding hands as photographers captured the outing. The appearance marked their most public moment together so far, although neither has publicly confirmed the relationship in a formal statement.
For Ana, the setting was particularly fitting because she is a longtime Louis Vuitton ambassador and was named a face of the brand's jewellery line in 2023. Beto, meanwhile, stepped into the fashion spotlight alongside her after previously being known primarily for his music career.
Months of Romance Sightings
The Paris appearance did not come completely out of nowhere. Ana and Beto were first linked after sightings in Madrid during the summer, with reports placing them together around July and later showing them enjoying time together in Formentera.
By August, photographs showed the pair kissing and walking hand-in-hand during their Spanish getaway, adding fuel to romance speculation. Their Louis Vuitton appearance therefore felt like a significant step into the public eye, even though the pair have continued to keep official comments about their relationship private.
Meet Rawayana Frontman Beto
Beto, whose full name is Alberto Montenegro, is far more than a mystery man accompanying a Hollywood actress. He is the lead vocalist and guitarist of Venezuelan band Rawayana, which he co-founded in Caracas in 2007 with three friends.
The group mixes reggae, funk, rock, pop and Caribbean influences, while Beto has also worked outside Rawayana, including with the supergroup Astropical alongside Bomba Estéreo's Li Saumet. Rawayana has built a significant international following, giving Beto an established career of his own rather than simply being known through Ana.
His Grammy-Winning Career
There is another reason Beto may be familiar to music fans: Rawayana won the 2025 Grammy for Best Latin Rock or Alternative Album for ¿Quién Trae Las Cornetas?. During the ceremony, Beto accepted the award on behalf of the Venezuelan group and delivered part of his speech in Spanish.
Rawayana has also earned recognition at the Latin Grammys, including a 2025 win for 'Veneka', while its 2026 album ¿Dónde Es El After? received an Album of the Year nomination at the 2026 Latin Grammys.
Fans Have Their Say
While the couple appeared relaxed in Paris, some viewers focused less on their fashion week appearance and more on Beto himself. One commenter wrote, 'He must be very rich', while another offered the cheekier question, 'rich or funny?'
Those comments are social-media opinions rather than evidence of Beto's personal wealth or personality. Still, they capture the curiosity surrounding a musician who may be familiar to Latin music audiences but is considerably less recognisable to some of Ana's Hollywood followers.
A New Chapter in Paris
The Louis Vuitton appearance also comes after Ana's previous high-profile romance attracted considerable attention. Her outing with Beto represents her first major public relationship appearance since her reported romance with Tom Cruise, which was said to have ended in 2025.
Now, after months of low-key sightings, the actress and Grammy-winning musician have stepped into the Paris Fashion Week spotlight together. Whether they choose to put an official label on their relationship or not, their hand-in-hand Louis Vuitton appearance has certainly given fans plenty to talk about.
