Damien Hirst stepped out with his girlfriend Sophie Cannell this weekend for a romantic date night at Scott’s in Mayfair.
On Sunday night, the performer, 57, and his ballerina lover, 28, looked in love as they stared into each other’s eyes as they walked the streets of central London.
Bristol-born artist Damien wore an all-white ensemble, including a leather jacket with pink stripes down the arms and embroidered pink and black crosses on the chest.
He opted for white bottoms with the same cross design on the legs and black text on the side.
Hirst slipped his feet into a pair of Nike Air Force sneakers and threw on a white leather shoulder bag and a baby pink beanie.

Blonde beauty Sophie, who is 28 years his junior, contrasted perfectly with her other half as she went for an all black look, donned a black Alo hoodie and comfy black sweatpants.
She held a black Balenciaga handbag and to add some color she opted for a pair of purple and white Off White sneakers.
Her light locks were worn in a wavy style and her makeup palette looked flawless yet natural.
It was previously reported that Damien met Sophie at the posh Chiltern Firehouse, where she used to work as a waitress.
Hirst declared his love for Sophie in March this year when he immortalized her by creating a sculpture based on her body as part of one of his four works for the new Mayfair restaurant Bacchanalia.
The artist also made a statement about his relationship in August 2022 when he gifted Sophie £166,600 18-karat gold Rolex Pearlmaster studded with 713 gems.
It’s so spectacular that Sophie took to Instagram to flaunt it at the time — along with an amazing diamond ring on her left hand.
Such a starlet did little to quell speculation that she and Damien, her boyfriend of three years, are engaged and willing to commit despite their 28-year age difference.
When the pair’s romance first came to light, a friend close to the duo told Richard Eden in the Mail On Sunday that Damien is “in love” with the beauty.
MailOnline now understands that the couple is not engaged.

Damien’s love life prior to Sophie included his long-term girlfriend Maia Norman, with whom he shares three sons.
The former couple are parents to Connor Ojala, 26, Cassius Atticus, 21, and Cyrus Joe, 16.
Although he never married Maia, he referred to her as his “wife.”
After the birth of his eldest child Connor, the artist spent much of his time on a remote farmhouse near Combe Martin in Devon.
