González, who is currently promoting her new film, ‘I Love Boosters’, admits to embracing her new title as a “WAG” (Wives and Girlfriends) in a candid conversation with PEOPLE magazine during the film’s Los Angeles premiere. Notably, she expressed her unwavering support for Dimitrov, saying, “I’m so happy to share his success, and I’m there for him no matter what. I’m so proud of him.”
Her affection for Dimitrov is evident, particularly in a birthday tribute she posted on social media, in which she referred to him as her “absolutely favourite human.” This public acknowledgment marked their relationship as they transitioned from a private romance to an Instagram official couple. During the premiere, González playfully reflected on being called a WAG, embracing the title with a smile despite her initial reluctance.
As part of her commitment to support Dimitrov, González is set to travel to Paris to cheer him on at the French Open, which starts on May 18. “I like clay court season,” she said, expressing her excitement for the tennis tournament, which is one of the four prestigious Grand Slam events in the sport. Her enthusiasm for both her relationship and the game is palpable as she gears up for the event in support of her boyfriend’s career.
While managing her role as a partner, González is simultaneously promoting ‘I Love Boosters’, directed by renowned filmmaker Boots Riley. The film explores themes of fashion and ambition as it follows the journey of professional shoplifters, played by Keke Palmer and Taylour Paige, who seek revenge on a ruthless fashion designer portrayed by Demi Moore. González shared her experiences working alongside such a talented cast, highlighting the special bond formed during filming.
The creative environment on set had a profound impact on González, particularly due to the film’s emphasis on female narratives. She spoke fondly of sharing experiences and personal stories with her co-stars, including moments of vulnerability and excitement about motherhood, especially as Paige was pregnant during filming. “We were like the booster aunties,” she said, indicating an affectionate camaraderie among the cast.
Additionally, González reflected on the significance of collaborating with a predominantly female cast of colour, acknowledging the shared struggles and aspirations they face within the film industry. She articulated appreciation for Boots Riley’s decision to centre the story around women, saying it was refreshing to work in a space where inspirational characters were predominantly female.
Commenting on her experience, she remarked, “I’ve never been on a set with this amount of women ever in my life.” This emphasis on female empowerment and representation within the industry resonates with González, who has built her career amidst the challenges of being a woman of colour in Hollywood.
‘I Love Boosters’ is due to hit UK cinemas on May 22, and with González juggling the release alongside her relationship commitments, it’s an exciting time for the star. As she fervently supports her partner while pursuing her own passions, González exemplifies the balance that many women strive to achieve in both personal and professional spheres.
As her dual role as both partner and actress continues to evolve, González remains a figure to watch—one who embodies dedication in love and in her career.
