Paul Mescal: Who Are the Women in His Life?
Published on November 13, 2024, at 11:33 a.m. by Sthanlee Mirador/Sipa USA/SIPA, the article dives into the intriguing love life of the sensational actor and “Gladiator II” star, Paul Mescal. Now, if you hadn’t heard of him before, let’s just say he’s become the *gladiator* of tabloids and romance rumors!
Gracie Abrams: The Latest Muse
First up on this tour of love is Gracie Abrams, who’s currently rumored to be in a relationship with our boy Paul. They sparked romance rumors last June, presumably over a candlelit dinner where the conversation might’ve been more risqué than your average “Do you like pizza?” Now, they’ve been spotted flaunting their romance in the streets of New York—presumably while trying to dodge paparazzi who are just as nosy as your aunt at family gatherings!
Despite their frequent displays of affection, the pair have kept schtum about their relationship status, valuing their privacy like it’s the last slice of pizza at a party. In an interview with “GQ”, Paul declared, “How I behave in my private life is very valuable to me,” which is definitely an excellent way to remind the public he’s still a person, not just a pretty face on a poster!
Phoebe Bridgers: The Ex who Stole His Heart
Next, we can’t forget about Phoebe Bridgers, the singer who stole Paul’s heart between 2020 and 2023. Their romance is almost like a script straight from one of those rom-coms—she tweets about finishing “Normal People,” he responds with a dramatic “I’m officially dead,” and voilà! If this isn’t a modern-day love story, I don’t know what is.
In a 2020 interview, Paul mused about how precious having Phoebe by his side was during the rollercoaster ride of fame, which lets us in on the secret that even stars need a shoulder to cry on. Unfortunately, like binge-watching a series that abruptly gets canceled, their relationship ended in 2023, but not before engagement rumors added a spicy twist to the narrative. Talk about the *will-they-won’t-they* vibes!
Post-breakup, Paul has been vocal about the pressure from media speculation on his love life. Honestly, the guy is just trying to shift from “normal” to “gorgeous and single,” but the tabloids aren’t making it easy for him!
Daisy Edgar-Jones: The Best Friend Who’s Not a Girlfriend
Then we have Daisy Edgar-Jones, who’s not just a co-star from “Normal People,” but Paul’s rock-solid best friend. It seems that their on-screen chemistry has spilled over into real life, but sadly for fans, it remains firmly in the friend zone. Their friendship is more golden than a summer day, and she’s even said, “Paul is one of the best friends of my life!”—a phrase typically followed by an awkward eye-roll from both parties whenever romantics speculate about them.
Sure, they pop up together at glamorous events like the Met Gala, but according to them, they’re just really good friends. You have to admire their commitment to the whole “friends first” mantra! After all, in a world where relationships crash faster than a bad Tinder date, who wouldn’t want a solid friendship first?
Conclusion
So, there you have it, folks! A peek behind the curtain of Paul Mescal’s love life, filled with romance, humor, and a touch of heartbreak—just like everything else in the world of celebrity gossip. The world may be clamoring for details, but it seems our gladiator is keen to keep some secrets close to his chest. After all, in the wonderful, wild world of love, sometimes it’s best to keep things just between you, your best mates, and perhaps a bottle of wine!
Until next time, let’s hope Paul continues to steal the show on screen, regardless of which beautiful muse is by his side—or not!
