Paris Hilton Dodges Kiss From Her Husband
The moment took place on Saturday, November 7, when Hilton and Reum attended the 2026 LACMA Art+Film Gala at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. While posing together on the red carpet, Reum leaned in to kiss his wife as photographers captured the couple. However, Hilton turned away at the last second, instead blowing him a kiss from a distance. Reum then leaned toward her and whispered something in her ear, prompting both of them to laugh before continuing to pose for the cameras.
Hilton, 45, and Reum, 45, have been married for five years, having tied the knot on November 11, 2021. The couple, who began dating in 2019, share two children together: son Phoenix, born in January 2023, and daughter London, born in November 2023.
This isn't the first time the couple's red carpet interactions have attracted attention, as a similar moment involving Reum attempting to kiss Hilton at the 2024 Grammy Awards previously sparked speculation about their relationship.
