Robert Aramayo has returned to the red carpet for the first time since his win was overshadowed by the awards' racial slur controversy.
The actor, 33, attended the Madrid premiere for his film I Swear, after being awarded the Leading Actor gong for his acclaimed role as Tourette's campaigner John Davidson.
Robert was joined by the film's director Kirk Jones for the release of the film's Spanish version, titled Incontrolable.
The star was the surprise winner for the Leading Actor award at last month's ceremony, beating out the favourite .
While Robert's BAFTA win sparked from his family in attendance, the night was dominated by controversy after John himself left the awards after shouting racial slurs while Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo presented an award.
John, whose life is documented in the film I Swear, made the involuntary comment as a result of a tic.

Alan issued an apology to viewers after John was heard shouting the N-word, but the slur was left in for the televised edit of the show, which was broadcast on the BBC two hours later.
The BBC said the moment 'was aired in error' and claimed its Executive Complaints Unit (ECU) will complete a 'fast-tracked investigation' into the incident.
After the BAFTAs, John said he was 'deeply mortified' by his outburst, which he said had been involuntarily triggered by the neurological condition he has suffered from since the age of 12.
While he did receive some backlash from Hollywood stars including Jamie Foxx and Wendell Pierce, much of the furor was aimed at the BBC for failing to edit out the slur prior to the awards ceremony airing, despite it not being broadcast live.
He wrote on social media: 'I’ve been waiting all week until the dust settles after the weekend at the BAFTAs in London.
'I would like to thank each and every one of you who have shown love, support and solidarity towards myself and the rest of the Tourette’s Community. Your kind words and support have got me through a very difficult week.
'Whilst I will never apologies (sic) for having Tourette syndrome, i will apologise for any pain, upset and misunderstanding that it may create.
'This past week has been tough, and has reminded me that what I do raising awareness for such a misunderstood condition, there is still a long way to go and I will keep on keeping on until this is achieved.'
He went on to thank fans again for their support, adding: 'I love you all.'

John faced further agony last month when he got returned home to Scotland the day after the BAFTAs to find his beloved bicycle had been stolen by opportunistic thieves.
Kirk Jones, the director of I Swear, told The Telegraph: 'He finally gets home to Scotland the next day, and I suspect because thieves knew that he was in London – because they could see [he would be at] the awards – they went to his house, broke into his shed, and they stole his bike.
'He doesn't drive and he loves his bike. And it was all locked up in the shed, and it was broken into … any day in his life can turn out like that.'
Davidson previously revealed that BAFTA bosses had assured him 'that any swearing would be edited out of the broadcast' and questioned why he was seated with a microphone just in front of him.
He told Variety last week that the movie's distributors StudioCanal had been 'working closely with Bafta, and Bafta had made us all aware that any swearing would be edited out of the broadcast'.
He added: 'I have made four documentaries with the BBC in the past, and feel that they should have been aware of what to expect from Tourette's and worked harder to prevent anything that I said - which, after all, was some 40 rows back from the stage - from being included in the broadcast.
'As I reflect on the auditorium, I remember there was a microphone just in front of me, and with hindsight I have to question whether this was wise, so close to where I was seated, knowing I would tic.'
The BBC apologised for not editing out the N-word and confirmed it would be launching a 'fast-tracked investigation' into what it called a 'serious mistake' in the wake of the incident.
BAFTA issued an 'unreserved apology' for the 'very offensive language that carries incomparable trauma and pain for so many'.
It is understood people from Warner Bros, the film studio behind Sinners, spoke directly with BAFTA staff following the incident during the ceremony and requested the slur be removed from the broadcast.
Warner Bros representatives are said to have been reassured this request would be passed on and BAFTA was in touch with the studio throughout the evening.
But, according to sources, producers responsible for editing the show 'simply did not hear the slur' shouted when Jordan and Lindo were on stage.
In contrast, the BBC edited out 'Free Palestine' from an acceptance speech made by filmmaker Akinola Davies Jr after My Father's Shadow won the BAFTA for outstanding British debut.
