Gerard Butler goes casual in jeans and grey shirt as he steps out with stunning leggy girlfriend Morgan Brown for Fourth of July dinner party
As stars across America celebrate Independence Day at a long list of pool and beach parties, Gerard Butler opted to mark the occasion at a gathering that didn't require him to don swimwear.
The Scottish actor, 46, was spotted looking casual in jeans and a grey button-down shirt as he headed to a pre-Fourth of July dinner party at Nobu in Malibu, California, on Sunday night.
And despite being a screen star, he was outshone by his 39-year-old girlfriend Morgan Brown, who wowed as she walked beside him in a stunning pink dress, boasting a thigh-high slit.

She teamed her gown with a nude pair of vertiginous open-toed heels, which lengthened her shapely tanned legs, making her stand almost as tall as her hunky beau.
Her glossy brunette tresses cascaded behind her shoulders in soft waves, while she kept her makeup light and natural.
Carrying a multi-coloured clutch bag, she chatted intently with Gerard as they mingled with a host of other well-heeled guests at the celebratory gathering.

Gerard and Morgan started dating in May 2014 following his split from Romanian model Madalina Ghenea, 27, the previous year.
The couple are believed to have reunited in April, following a brief split earlier this year.
They were separated for months while Gerard traveled the globe promoting his movies London Has Fallen and Gods Of Egypt.

However, he has since been back in Malibu, California, in recent weeks and has frequently been spotted with the brunette beauty.
During their split, Gerard was romantically linked with British pop star Rita Ora after they were seen together in a Los Angeles hotel in January.
An insider told Us Weekly the pair dined together and hugged before retiring to a suite.
