Anya Taylor-Joy Strolls NYC with Husband Amid Bullying Recall

linked arms with her husband as they enjoyed a stroll through on Thursday.

The actress, 30, cut a stylish figure in a baby blue trench coat layered over a white top and jeans.

She finished her low-key look with a pair of white pumps and chic black sunglasses. 

Meanwhile Malcom, 23, donned a charcoal grey box t-shirt with jeans and brown boots. 

The pair, who have been married since 2022, appeared in good spirits as they had a day out in the city.

It comes just days after Anya revealed she was bullied at school because of the way she looked - despite going on to sign with a modelling agency at just 16 years old, The Hollywood Reporter reports.

The actress relocated from Argentina to London when she was just six and enrolled at the fee-paying Queen's Gate School in South Kensington.

But she was immediately alienated by her peers when she kissed a classmate on the cheek, after which she was repeatedly told that she wasn't beautiful.

For a glamorous shoot in the US industry publication, the actress poses in a white lace Ludovic de Saint Sernin jacket and skirt, while in another photo she wears a glittering silver Rabanne outfit.

Another shot for The Hollywood Reporter sees her playing in the sea, wearing a satin Datt Official gown and in another she lounges on the beach in a black Lanvin dress.

Despite being teased for her appearance, Ms Taylor-Joy was just a teenager when a car pulled up alongside her while she tried to break in a pair of high heels for a party outside Harrods.

Sarah Doukas, the head of modelling agency Storm, was in the car and wanted to sign her on the spot.

Ms Taylor-Joy told her she had 'no interest in modelling,' but heard 'that sometimes models become actors' and she already knew 'that's what I want to do with my life.'

Following a string of roles in horror films such as 2016's The Witch and Split she

For 2024's Mad Max film, Furiosa, in which she played the lead character, she had to lobby director George Miller to get the ending she wanted.

'This was my dream. It was my dream to be in these Mad Max movies and as this crazy feminist icon,' she said.

'I just advocated and advocated and advocated for her to live up to her name. It was my mountain on that movie, and I got it, but it was hard, hard won.'

She said it was 'very difficult' to have a conversation about the 81-year-old Australian director, as being 'completely honest' about her experience would 'hurt nobody but myself.'

The actress, who married musician Malcolm McRae in 2022, will next appear on screen in Apple TV+ miniseries Lucky, in which she plays a con artist on the run.

Earlier this month she revealed her uprooted childhood left her feeling 'alienated' as she opened up about constantly moving around when she was younger. 

She posed up a storm for a glamorous L'Officiel magazine shoot as she modelled a range of quirky looks. 

And reflecting on her childhood, the Dune star said moving across the world with her family from a young age left her feeling alienated from her peers, as she confessed: 'it was difficult for little me.' 

However now seeing it as a positive, as it prepared her for life as an actress, she recalled: 'But now I look at it with so much love, because I just think it perfectly set me up to live this kind of transient life.'

Anya was raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina before moving to the UK at age six and has previously described the move as 'traumatic' and initially refused to learn English as she hoped they would move back to Argentina. 

Now splitting her time between London and , she said: 'I've always been nomadic by nature.

'Now I've just fully embraced it as part of who I am. If I have a couple of days off, I'm always like, Ooh, what's within driving distance? If it's six hours or less, I'm like, Let's go. Why not?'
