The couple, who are also co-stars on 'X-Men: Days of Future Past', briefly split last year, reported Us magazine.

"They just weren't together a lot, her life is a whirlwind. They have gotten back together before, it just got to be too hard for now," a source said.
Earlier this year, the 23-year-old Oscar-winning actress talked about her relationship with Hoult in an interview, sharing how she and her boyfriend juggled work and personal life.
The 24-year-old actor, meanwhile, was most recently seen having a meal with Kristen Stewart. The two, who will play lovers in 'Equals', were seen by a fan at Tsukiji Market, Tokyo.
