Sam Smith was spotted out on a coffee date in New York City with their boyfriend Christian Cowan, just weeks after they were rumoured to have split.
The Unholy singer, 31, sported a black knitted jumper dress with a pair of trainers and calf-length socks for the stroll in Tribeca on Sunday.
Meanwhile, fashion designer Christian looked trendy as he layered a tweed blazer with a fluffy-trimmed denim jacket.
He completed the stylish look with a floral patterned cap, baggy jeans and a pair of black leather loafers.
The couple’s appearance comes just weeks after rumours circled that they had split up when Sam was spotted on celebrity dating app Raya.

However, Sam soon denied this, claiming that they were still going strong with Christian and claiming the dating profile was a fake.
There were fears for the romance over Christmas amid claims Sam had signed up to Raya, which describes itself as a ‘private global community.’
However, a source close to Sam questioned the authenticity of the star’s profile.
They told : ‘Sam and Christian are still very much in a relationship and they haven’t been on Raya.
‘Given there’s a profile for them that exists on the app, there’s a fear now that someone is impersonating Sam and they will be speaking to Raya about this.’
The five-time Grammy award winner has been dating Christian since last January after meeting when the clothing designer collaborated with Sam on the costumes for their music video, I’m Not Here to Make Friends.
Christian, whose clientele includes A-list stars Lady Gaga, Jennifer Lopez, Cardi B and Heidi Klum, confirmed his romance with Sam with a kiss in January 2023 as the two walked together arm-in-arm in New York.
It has been Sam’s first public relationship since their split from 13 Reasons Why actor Brandon Flynn, 30.

Sam’s relationship with Christian is still going strong, according to a close associate, who dismisses claims the singer has been active on exclusive dating app, Raya (pictured in February 2023)
In 2019, Sam revealed that they identify as non-binary and confirmed their pronouns are they/them.
They wrote on Instagram: ‘After a lifetime of being at war with my gender I’ve decided to embrace myself for who I am, inside and out.’
Speaking about their gender, Sam said: ‘I’m not male or female, I think I flow somewhere in between. It’s all on the spectrum.’
The singer, known for hits Dancing With a Stranger, Too Good At Goodbyes and 2015 Bond track Writing’s on the Wall, which won the Oscar for best song in 2016, says they are open to dating whomever they fall in love with.
‘I generally have never really thought about people, any human beings, in rigid terms.
While Sam hasn’t spoken publicly about their relationship with Christian, the pair have attended events as a couple and are regularly seen in New York spending time together (pictured December 2023)
‘I’ve grown up in a family where the gender power balance and all these things were completely shifted.
‘My mum worked, my dad was a househusband. My sisters are incredibly strong women.’
As well as their romance with Brandon Flynn, Sam also dated Jonathan Zeizel and thanked the model for ‘breaking their heart’ because it led to their four Grammy wins.
Sam penned the track Stay With Me following their split and later vowed never to ‘fall in love again with someone who doesn’t love me back.’
