Sam Smith wraps their arms around boyfriend Christian Cowan as they enjoy a public display of affection in New York

Sam Smith looked smitten on Saturday as they stepped out in New York City with boyfriend Christian Cowan.

The 31-year-old singer, who is known for their wild ensembles, cut a casual figure for the shopping trip as they toned their look down by wearing a blue zip up hoodie. 

The non-binary singer, who uses they/them pronouns, added an oversized brown blazer over the jump and teamed it with a pair of white cargos. 

Sam completed their look with a comfy pair of chunky brown leather shoes and sported long facial hair. 

The Unholy hitmaker seemed in high spirits with Christian, 27, as the loved-up pair stopped to hug each other.

The fashion designer rocked an all black ensemble complete with a large black oversized coat. 

It comes after Sam cut a stylish figure as they graced the British Fashion Awards red carpet at London’s Royal Albert Hall last week. 

They put on a very leggy display in a thigh skimming black mini skirt and towering Vivienne Westwood platform boots. 

Sam, who was later honoured with the Cultural Innovator Award, completed the ensemble with chic blazer which boasted dramatic shoulder pads and statement buttons. 

The Cultural Innovator Award honours figures in the entertainment industry who have created viral fashion moments, like Sam’s unforgettable latex clad appearance at the 2023 Brit Awards. 

Prior to their relationship with Christian, the Stay With Me singer had a high profile romance with 13 Reasons Why actor Brandon Flynn.

Sam has also been romantically linked with British reality television star Charlie King and soap star Andy Newton Lee.

Despite their high profile romances, Sam prefers to keep their love life out of the public eye.

‘I’ve never really kind of played by the rule book. I love people and whoever I fall for, that’s who I fall for. I don’t know who that’s going to be,’ Sam told The Sun.

‘Now I don’t know what gender they will be, to be quite honest, and that’s a freeing thing – to not be limited to one category of person. I just fall in love with whoever I fall in love with.’

Sam has also been linked romantically to Francois Rocci, Jonathon Zeizel and Jay Camilleri and has spoken about how their relationships have influenced their music.

Speaking to The Sun, they said: ‘A queer person’s first relationship is a huge thing sometimes, because it’s where you discover the most about yourself.

‘And so [the Love Goes album is] more about me and my journey after that, really. But yeah, it is basically a break-up album.

‘I generally have never really thought about people, any human beings, in rigid terms. I’ve grown up in a family where the gender power balance and all these things were completely shifted.’

They explained: ‘My mum worked, my dad was a househusband. My sisters are incredibly strong women.’
