Nicola Coughlan, 37, and her partner, Jake Dunn, who is 13 years her junior, were photographed by paparazzi during a visit to an Irish pub in the UK’s capital. The couple strolled through the streets of London, embracing and showing affection openly.
Rumors about their relationship have been circulating for several months. In August, the couple was spotted at the All Points East music festival in London, where they were having a wonderful time together, and nothing suggested they were just friends.
Earlier in May, when the third season of "Bridgerton" was released on Netflix, fans speculated about a supposed romance between Nicola and her on-screen co-star, Luke Newton. They played a couple experiencing a passionate romance. The on-screen chemistry was so strong that fans believed there must be a spark between them. They were seen holding hands during the Australian premiere of the series. However, these rumours were never confirmed.
On another note, a few months ago in an interview with us, Nicola admitted that thanks to "Bridgerton," she started believing in love... genuinely!
Nicola Coughlan, an icon for many women
Although Nicola took a well-deserved vacation after an intense period of promoting the new season of the Netflix blockbuster, she has recently been in the spotlight again. She was among the women honoured by Time magazine. In an accompanying interview, the actress admitted that she is outraged that her nude scenes are considered acts of bravery.
She insists that having a pair of large breasts, which she showed on screen, does not make her brave. She encouraged the creators to include nudity on screen and is proud of how well it was received.
Who is Nicola’s new boyfriend?
Jake Dunn is also an actor. He recently appeared in the series "Rebel Nell" on Disney+ and the series "Revenge" on Netflix. How could they have met? It is suspected he met the actress through their mutual friend Dylan Llewellyn from the cult series "Derry Girls," which made Nicola a star. Jake's latest film is "William Tell," a historical drama set to premiere in January. It will be interesting to see if Nicola appears on the red carpet.
