Alexandra Burke has made her relationship with footballer Darren Randolph red carpet official as they hit the most star-studded event in town last night.
The Bad Boys singer graced the Dune movie premiere with her presence on Monday evening with West Ham goalkeeper Darren by her side.
Giving the Hollywood stars a run for their money, Alex, 33, looked stunning in a silver velvet dress with a slinky one shoulder and thigh-high split. Darren, 34, matched her level of sophistication donning a smart black suit and tie.
On their way to the event, Alex and Darren posed together in the back of their car with the footballer flashing the peace sign in an Instagram video. They were joined by Alex’s sister Nalini Boyce, prompting the singer to caption the clip: ‘Family night out,’ with love heart emoji.
It’s believed Alex and Darren have been dating since at least May, as the former X Factor winner appeared to confirm their romance by sharing a cute selfie of them together. They were heading for dinner at Japanese restaurant Roka, which Darren dubbed: ‘London date night.’
Confirming their relationship, a source told The Sun at the time: ‘It’s early days and Alexandra has deliberately taken things incredibly slowly.

‘They’ve had a series of dates but not been able to meet up as much as they would have wanted due to her hectic work schedule and the Covid restrictions.
‘Alexandra was extremely reluctant to date another footballer but Darren is the sweetest, most down-to-earth guy — and incredibly charming. He wore her down.’
Last October, it was revealed that Alex had split from footballer Angus MacDonald after more than a year of dating.
An insider claimed they struggled to see each other during lockdown and were juggling busy careers.

‘It felt like the best decision for them to cut ties and for Alexandra that involved removing any pictures of them together from her Instagram,’ the source said.
Prior to Angus, Alex was in a relationship with Joel Ginnelly and the pair were engaged.
