This comes one day after we reported that the couple had fueled marriage rumours by stepping out in wedding attire and matching wedding rings.
In photos obtained by Page Six, Naomi looked sensational as she donned a lace Oscar de la Renta frock, while holding onto a bouquet of blooms that matched her outfit.
Naomi was also spotted donning a gold band on her ring finger, which sat beside a sparkling diamond ring that was thought to be her engagement ring.

The couple both starred in Netflix psychological thriller series Gypsy in 2017 as a husband and wife, prior to confirming their relationship.
This comes mere weeks after Naomi appeared on the Today show and successfully dodged a string of questions about the diamond ring on her left ring finger.
Host of the show Hoda Kotb gushed over the "beautiful" sparkler, with Naomi laughing it off.

Co-host Savannah Guthrie then pressed the actress when she said: "Hoda is asking if you’re engaged..."
Naomi then dodged the question, made an excuse and said she had "brain fog", something that must have cleared up recently in order for her to say her vows.
