Henry Cavill, renowned for his roles as Superman and Sherlock Holmes’ older brother in “Enola Holmes,” is facing mounting pressure to take a big step in his relationship with Natalie Viscuso, a television executive based in Los Angeles. The couple, who went public with their relationship in April 2021, are now expecting their first child together, sparking anticipation among friends and fans alike for a marriage proposal.
Despite their public appearances and Natalie’s patient demeanor, sources close to the couple reveal that Henry, 41, known for his meticulous approach to decisions, has been hesitant to fully commit. “Henry does everything at his own pace and is careful about every decision he makes,” an insider exclusively told Closer. “Natalie has been incredibly patient, but she’s eagerly awaiting a proposal and a wedding date.”
Their relationship, which began quietly before blossoming into a public romance, has faced challenges due to Henry’s career and personal preferences. “A lot of this relationship has been conducted over long distances because Henry treasures his bachelor time too much,” the source explained. “He’s adamant about making England, not Los Angeles, his permanent base of operations.”
Natalie, 34, currently works as a television executive at Vertigo Entertainment, a production company known for its work on projects like Prime Video’s “Them: Covenant.” Her previous tenure at Legendary Entertainment overlapped with Henry’s involvement in films like “Man of Steel” and “Enola Holmes.” Despite their industry connections, the couple has kept their relationship predominantly out of the spotlight.
The couple made headlines again in April 2022 when they made their red carpet debut at the premiere of “Enola Holmes 2,” marking a significant step in their public acknowledgment of their relationship.
Henry Cavill, whose previous relationships include notable figures like Kaley Cuoco and Lucy Cork, has been vocal about maintaining privacy amidst public scrutiny. Addressing speculation about his personal life in a candid Instagram post in May 2021, he expressed frustration with the invasive nature of public curiosity. “I know it can be fun to speculate, to gossip, and to dive into our own personal echo chambers on the internet,” he wrote. “But your ‘passion’ is misplaced, and it causes harm to the people I care about most.”
Despite these challenges, the couple’s friends remain hopeful that Henry will soon make a decision that aligns with Natalie’s desires. “She’s not an insecure person, but Henry’s super-slow and purposeful way of doing everything in their relationship has made her a bit antsy, to say the least!” the source added.
As they prepare to welcome their first child together, all eyes are on Henry Cavill and Natalie Viscuso, waiting to see if the notoriously private actor will finally take the plunge and propose to his partner of over a year.
