According to multiple sources, Kim Cattrall has been dating beau Russell Thomas for more than six years.

She posted a picture of the two of them celebrating their sixth anniversary in April 2022.
Cattrall calls him "Russ," and according to The Sun, he once worked at the BBC. Kim wished Russell a happy 50th birthday and shared a photo of the two of them on Instagram back in September 2020. Russell is now 52 years old, according to this. His actress girlfriend is 14 years his senior. They spent the quarantine period together in Kim's Vancouver island home. Kim stated, "From the beginning, [Russ] and I felt like we needed to get out of town, so we came up to my house in Canada. I'm coming home again. The mountains, the orcas, when I was a teenager I didn't appreciate it. But now, they're bringing me back."
How did they meet?
Thomas and Cattrall met in 2016 while he was working at the BBC. She disclosed that their relationship got off to a hectic beginning. She revealed, "Russell and I met at the BBC, he was working at the BBC and we liked each other. He followed me and I followed him on Twitter, he direct messaged me." Cattrall added, "We kind of liked each other, we kept in touch and then he came out to Vancouver. It was very brave of him because we didn't really know each other other than having a few meals together. But he came and we got along great, and we've been together ever since!"
'He was worth waiting for'
Cattrall has been married three times before, but since her divorce in 2004, her love life has largely been kept out of the public eye. She claims that her and Russell's relationship has generally been trouble-free.She went on, "I'm very comfortable around him. He's a firecracker and he's got a wicked sense of humor. And he's easy on the eyes! I love him. And he was worth waiting for," as cited by The Sun.
