Paparazzi have spotted them a few times in public ever since the boxing event. Their first public appearance was when the two were spotted outside of celeb hotspot Nobu in Malibu. The couple wasn’t shy at being photographed. Sonders held onto De La Hoya’s arm and placed her hand on his chest.
Nobu is a known Celeb hotspot, where one always spots stars and couples. The duo probably wanted to be spotted together. After their first public appearance, the couple visited the Pebble Beach golf course and hit a few links together.
