Meet Rafael Olarra, Pedro Pascal’s rumoured boyfriend – and Luke Evans’ ex

Pascal turned heads at the Oscars in Chanel with a new, clean-shaven look – but the internet is also curious about the creative director he might be dating...

The highlight of the ensemble was a white floral brooch – a creation of silk and feathers. “What I love about this look is that it doesn’t take itself too seriously,” he told the outlet, adding, “The tuxedo is classic, the Camélia brooch is beautiful, and the Chanel watch ties the whole thing together, traditional and a little rebellious at the same time.”

While the look was undoubtedly chic, all eyes were on the 50-year-old’s facial hair – or lack thereof. Pascal stunned fans with a clean-shaven look on the red carpet, which drew mixed reactions online. Some fans were supportive of the actor’s new appearance, while others weren’t impressed.
