RIGHT AS RAIN

Actress Rose McGowan is dating model and activist Rain Dove

ROSE McGOWAN’s personal life is looking up, less than a year after she bravely called out Harvey Weinstein and became one of the driving forces behind the #MeToo movement.

I can reveal the actress is dating Rain Dove, who has been creating headlines as the world’s most famous non-binary gender model.

Rose had been pictured in a number of romantic moments with Rain, who prefers to be referred to as “they” rather than she or he – but no one knew who the mystery date was until now.

They’re certainly a very modern couple, with Rose also preferring not to label herself as a man or a woman.

They attended the Ozy Fest in New York last weekend, where they were seen kissing, but online reports wrongly said Rose was with a man.

The Charmed star was previously involved with music producer Boots and other famous exes include Marilyn Manson, Ryan Phillippe and Matthew Lillard.

Rose – one of Weinstein’s most vocal accusers – was among the first to point the finger at him in bombshell tweets in October following a newspaper exposé.

The star has reportedly reached a settlement with the producer, who denies allegations of rape in his hotel room at 1997’s Sundance Film Festival.

Rose has also been an LGBT rights activist and came out as non-binary in March, saying: “I don’t wanna be a man or a woman. That’s the thing, I’m not.”

Former firefighter Rain began modelling as a bet with pals but went on to enjoy serious success in the industry.

Rain said: “I utilised my gender- bending profile as something that had gotten me a bunch of odd jobs from nannying to landscape.”

As a couple, they’ll certainly have no shortage of interesting conversation.

Dua Lipa made a massive fashion blunder by thinking she was stealing the show with this ridiculous outfit.

Just a shame Gigi Hadid did it two months earlier.

The One Kiss singer wore the impractical Versace bodysuit when she went out for dinner in New York on Thursday evening.
But it was at the beginning of June when Gigi slipped into it at the CFDA Fashion Awards in Brooklyn.
