Actress Alicia Vikander, who has been romantically linked to Hollywood star Michael Fassbender, says she likes to keep "a bit of mystery" around her personal life.

The publicity shy couple confirmed their romance at the Oscars this year by sharing a kiss on the cheek after Vikander won the best supporting actress Oscar for her role in "The Danish Girl".

"When I go to the movies and see the actors and actresses I look up to, I like knowing as little as possible about them, so I can see them becoming these different characters. If you can find a way to keep a bit of mystery, that's good for the work," she told Sunday Style.
 

The 27-year-old star, who will next be seen in "Jason Bourne", says she even stays away from social media.

To maintain that mystery, she stays off social media.

"I tried - I got a bit stressed out that I had to post things. If you enjoy doing it, it's a great way to keep in touch with audiences. But I didn't have that drive to do it just privately with my friends, so I wouldn't be very good at it.
