Kate Bosworth Packs On The PDA With Justin As Newlyweds Attend The Michael J. Fox Foundation’s Annual Gala To Benefit Parkinson’s Research

Justin Long and Kate Bosworth put their chemistry on display for all to see as they lend their support to The Michael J Fox Foundation on Saturday evening.

The famous couple – who just tied the knot last May – were among the stars who attended the organization’s annual gala, A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To Cure Parkinson’s, on Cipriani South Street in New York City.

While enjoying a night out together, Long, 45, was absolutely beaming with joy next to his wife, wearing a black suit and white shirt.

The pair couldn’t keep their hands off each other as they worked the cameras on the red carpet.

Equally radiant, Bosworth, 40, showed off her fabulous figure in a sleeveless black dress with silver trim and a matching floral emblem along the bust.

The Blue Crush actress perfectly matched this eye-catching number by wearing black and silver open-toed heels and carrying a small clutch bag that sparkled under the glare of the bright camera lights.

While Long had his dark brown hair styled short, over his ears and parted on the left side, his new bride had her long blonde locks pulled back into a tight bun with a center parting.

At one point, the hot and heavy duo was joined on the red carpet by the event’s namesake, Michael J. Fox, 62, who still looks youthful dressed in a plaid blazer with black pants and sneakers.

His wife Tracy Pollan, 63, also joined in the fun and snuggled up to her husband of 35 years, who looked cool and stylish in a black sequin blazer, white shirt and black trousers.

The romantic sparks between Long and Bosworth reportedly started when they shot an unknown project together in 2021, but rumors of the relationship only started going public in March 2022 when they were spotted together in Los Angeles, according to People.

The couple eventually married last May at The Rockaway Hotel in New York’s Queens, in what was described as “improvised and casual.”

Marketed as ‘an evening of comedy and music benefiting the Michael J. Fox Foundation For Parkinson’s Research’, Saturday event was hosted by Denis Leary and also featured comedy from Ronny Chieng, Dulce Sloan and George Wallace.

The music included the talents of Bob Weir, best known as a founding member of the Grateful Dead, Jason Isbell and Steve Jordan’s Super Soul Banned.

Founded in 2000, the foundation not only focuses on finding a cure for Parkinson’s disease, but also focuses on funding research and ensuring the development of improved therapies for people with Parkinson’s.

Since its inception 23 years ago, the MJFF has funded an astonishing $1.5 billion in high-impact research programs, while the Gala has helped raise more than $112 million of that amount, with $4 million coming from 2022 alone . the organisation proudly boasts.

‘We act with focus and determination in everything we do. We will not stop until a cure is found,” the MJFF website reads.

Fox made his diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease public in 1991, when he was just 29 years old, but continued to act until he finally retired in 2020 due to his symptoms, which included tremors, movement disorders, coordination and muscle stiffness.
