Chris Pine has been quietly dating Keana Sky Wenger since 2023, but the couple have been thrust into the spotlight more recently after they were photographed together in public for the first time.
In pictures obtained by MailOnline, the Don’t Worry Darling actor, 44, and the designer, 29, were spotted leaving the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles after attending an exclusive, star-studded dinner.
Since then, the pair have been photographed again walking together through New York City. Chris and Keana were holding hands as they strolled through the Big Apple while wrapped in coats to keep out the NYC chill.
Given we’ve only just found out the identity of Chris’ girlfriend, despite them being linked for a year and a half, it’s clear that the Into the Woods star prefers to keep his personal life private.
Fortunately for him, he resides in a gorgeous bungalow in Los Feliz which affords him a healthy amount of privacy. Here’s what we know about his super-secluded home.
Chris Pine’s ultra-private compound hidden away from the spotlight
Chris has used his Los Feliz property as his main residence since 2010. He bought the home from the actor Jason Lee for $3.1 million – though it’s likely to have increased in value since.
There aren’t many photos of the home in the public domain, but from the rare snaps we’ve seen and from the specifications, it’s the perfect abode for someone who likes to enjoy the greenery and warmth of LA while embracing solitude.
The Mediterranean-style property is a bungalow which is 2,200 square feet in size and comes with a modest three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Many celebrity homes boast up to ten bedrooms or bathrooms, so clearly Chris values a more humble-style home.
Though what it lacks in bedroom numbers it makes up for in amenities. It comes with a full-size swimming pool, a spa and a wine cellar, plus a separate guest house.
It also sits on almost an acre of land, meaning there’s plenty of outdoor space to roam.

According to Velvet Ropes, it also has an outdoor patio area for dining which overlooks the pool and is covered by a wooden pergola.

Earlier this year, it was reported in The Sun that Chris Pine’s bungalow had been involved in a legal battle with his neighbour regarding the surrounding land of his property.
The neighbour, Helen Yu, was claiming that the tree roots located in Chris’ garden had caused damage to her Hollywood Hills property.

The issue was first raised in 2022, though Helen re-sued after the problem grew bigger. Things have been escalating all year between the two parties, and Chris’ legal team filed to postpone trial dates numerous times.
Eventually, Chris was not ordered to attend a trial in November as originally planned, as lawyers on both sides told the judge prior to the hearing that they had “resolved the matter in principle”.
Instead, they were told to present their settlement to a court so that they could both put the matter behind them, details of which aren’t known publicly.
