Thenotoriously private couple, who have hardly been spotted together in public sincequietly marrying back in 2013, stepped out in New York City for a special screening ofIf Beale Street Could Talk— the upcoming drama from director Barry Jenkins (Moonlight).
She kept it casual in a pair of blue jeans, a cream white sweater, and brown heels. Asomugha, 37, wore a grey sweatshirt, a navy trench coat, and black pants and shoes.
Their evening out together comes nearly a month afterWashington labelled herself a “mother of three” on theTodayshow, which came asa surprise to some fansonly aware of the two kids she shares with Asomugha, sonCaleb Kelechi, 2, and daughter Isabelle Amarachi, 4½.

Washington is currently starring on Broadway in the playAmerican Son, though the cast has Monday nights off.
The play also starsSteven Pasquale, with he and Washington playing a couple who go on a search for their missing son. Issues like race, politics, and police brutality are all touched upon.
“That there was a time where you could control everything, kind of, about them in the very beginning,” Washington explained. “But parenting is a lot about letting go and how you do that with grace and ease and empower your kids to make the right choices.”
She continued: “It is an adventure. And obviously, doing that as aparent of an African-American kidhas particular challenges.”
