Paul Mescal And Daisy Edgar-Jones Just Can't Stop Looking At Each Other

Paul Mescal Daisy Edgar-Jones

There's a super cute video of Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar-Jones that's floating around, and I have one question: are they secretly dating? It may not be fair to ask, but I can't help it โ€” I just love a celebrity couple! Plus, I mean, if someone could catch my attention at a literal Gucci fashion show like Paul and Daisy here, I'm thinking we're definitely more than friends because hello? GUCCI? Nothing could break my gaze from all that goodness unless I was head-over-heels for someone.

Viral video aside, it's hard to ignore their steamy chemistry in the TV adaptation of Sally Rooney'sNormal People, or their Met Gala run-in. However, the pair hasn't officially released a statement that confirms โ€” or denies โ€” anything. Given all that, here's what's evident about the nature of their friendship...and potential relationship.

Paul Mescal And Daisy Edgar-Jones Share THAT Met Gala Moment

After they took the world by storm as star-crossed lovers in Normal People, Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar-Jones reunited at the Met Gala in 2022. While they got their own shot together (pictured above), they also shared a moment that you'd miss if you blinked. In a moment of what seems like pure pining, while Paul Mescal and Phoebe Bridgers snap a photo together...it sure looks like his gaze leads right to one miss Daisy Edgar-Jones.

Later that year, during her Elle UK interview, Daisy Edgar-Jones revealed she was a fan of Paul Mescal's mustache. Up until that point, he hadn't been sporting any facial hair, so it was nice to see her supporting his new look. She said, "Oh, I love it. Paul can pull off anything." Hmm...I see. ๐Ÿ‘€

In a beautifully captured moment, Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar-Jones embraced after his acceptance of a British Independent Film Award for Aftersun. This also occurred in 2022 and it makes me think this could indicate the turn of their relationship, if they're actually dating...

Daisy Edgar-Jones Has The Famous Chain From Normal People

Connell's chain in Normal People is, was, and always will be iconic. There's just something about it! Well, earlier this year, Paul told The Times that Daisy actually has Connell's original chain from Normal People, despite how much fans on the internet coveted it themselves.

And the way he revealed this information? Even better. The writer thought Paul was wearing the chain during the interview, but he wittingly proved otherwise. "Itโ€™s not...Daisy has that one," he said. SWOON!!!!!

What's the final verdict?

As much as I'd love to know if Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar-Jones have a special thing going on, Grazia seems to be convinced they're actually just really good friends who care about each other. It's honestly not much different than my Bridgerton faves, Nicola Coughlan and Luke Newton. I guess all the on-screen chemistry in the world doesn't a relationship make...yet. ๐Ÿ˜

I guess for now we'll just have to keep dreaming, or writing fan fiction!

Are you convinced that Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar-Jones are more than just friends? Let us know in the comments!

Emily Blunt and John Krasinski are at the top of my personal #relationshipgoals list because they're my real life Jim and Pam from The Office. I'm sure that sounds cheesy, but I'm willing to flex my hopeless romantic muscles when it comes to their love story. It's not like they make it hard for me to gush over them.

Whether it's thinking about the way they first met, or the epic way they made A Quiet Place together in spite of 'advice' that tried to spell their demise, Emily Blunt and John Krasinski have a unified relationship that gives me butterflies. Here's a definitive timeline of these two love birds' relationship!

Scroll down to get all the adorable details on Emily Blunt & John Krasinski!

How many children do Emily Blunt and John Krasinski have?

The couple has two daughters together โ€” Hazel, 10, and Violet, 7. They confirmed their first pregnancy with Hazel in 2013 and only announced the arrival of Violet after she was born in 2016.

On September 7, John Krasinski, Emily Blunt and their daughters showed up to the US Open. Hazel wore a white US Open cap while Emily and John opted for black hats. Violet stood out with her hair in a ponytail & bow.

What have Emily Blunt and John Krasinski said about their daughters?

John told Peoplein 2020 that becoming a father has been one of the biggest changes in his life. He said, "โ€œI went through some really serious stuff...There is a mirror that is held up to me now. You have someone watching you. You have to lead by example.โ€ He also said he's been able to see his parents' perspectives now that he's raising children.

Emily told Harper's Bazaar UK last year that their daughters are a top priority for her. It's why she carves out time to be with them as much as possible when working. She said, "...even though theyโ€™re...used to this strange life, itโ€™s still rough on them when I have to go away." As a working mom, I can only imagine how difficult it is for actors and actresses to explain to their kids why they have to go away for periods of time.

She went on to say, "There are cornerstones of the girlsโ€™ day that I donโ€™t want to compromise on โ€“ like, will you wake me up, take me to school...Itโ€™s such an exhale for me to be able to do that."

When Did Emily Blunt and John Krasinski meet?

Amy Sussman/Getty Images

Emily appeared on A Late Night with Seth Meyers in 2018 and admitted their first meeting was fairly casual. She said, "...it's just kind of lame. I mean, I was in a restaurant. He was in the restaurant." She then says something that made me giggle. "This is our romantic comedy! This is it. Write it," said Emily.

From there, she talks about how their mutual friend spotted John and the way her future husband made her laugh when he came to the table. As simple as that sounds, I think the best love stories don't always have an overly dazzling beginning. Sometimes it's really the small interactions that touch the heart.

And as for John's perspective on the meeting? Well, he told PEOPLE for the Sexiest Man Alive issue that he fell for Emily "the second he met her." The star said, "I don't know what happened, but I remember someone introduced us, and it was across a room in a restaurant, and I walked over to her, and as soon as I shook her hand, I just knew." OKAY, BRB SOBBING. ๐Ÿ˜ญโค๏ธ

When did Emily Blunt and John Krasinski start dating?

Amy Sussman/Getty Images

They've never shared an official timeline for their first date, but we're pretty sure it didn't take long for Emily Blunt and John Krasinski to have their first date after meeting in 2008. They don't agree on who asked who out first, but the couple told The Hollywood Reporter in 2018 that they basically hung out at John's apartment and ate pizza. I always say the best way to know if you really like someone is if you enjoy being around them doing something that's considered mundane โ€” like eating pizza and watching movies.

When did Emily Blunt and John Krasinski get married?

Mike Coppola/Getty Images

Less than a year after dating, Emily Blunt and John Krasinski got engaged! A rep told People, "We can confirm that John and Emily are engaged."

They were engaged for almost a year before "jumping the broom" in 2010 and had an exclusive wedding at fellow actor George Clooney's house! Funny enough, John was hesitant about having their wedding there and told Elle, "Only on the fourth ask did I say yes. Because the first three times I thought, There's no way he is serious. But I started to see his feelings get hurt."

What have Emily Blunt and John Krasinski said about their relationship?

Matt Winkelmeyer/Getty Images for Critics Choice Association

John admitted to Glamour in 2018 that he'd watched The Devil Wears Prada over 50 times. "Iโ€™m lucky enough that she stayed with me and didnโ€™t realize that she had really married her stalker," he said.

Emily gushed about her husband by telling InStylein 2021, "When I feel the support that I have from him, I feel invincible. There's someone behind you on your good days and someone in front of you on your bad days."

Why did Emily Blunt and John Krasinskiย decide to work on "A Quiet Place" together?

John Phillips/Getty Images

When it was announced that Emily Blunt and John Krasinski were working on their first film together, A Quiet Place, I was beyond excited. Of their experience on set together, John admitted to Peoplein 2018 that he had a lot of fun working with Emily. He said, โ€œIโ€™ve never have loved my wife more than after we did this movie...We were really honest with each other from the beginning."

And when Emily won the award for Best Supporting Actress at the 25th Annual SAG Awards in 2019, she had nothing but positive things to say about John. She said, "I am going to share this completely with my husband, John Krasinski, because the entire experience of doing this with you has completely pierced my heart directly...You are a stunning filmmaker..."

How have Emily Blunt and John Krasinskiย supported each other's careers?

Kevin Winter/Getty Images

Now that Emily is getting ready for the debut of The Fall Guy alongside Ryan Gosling, she can't help but to talk about how John influenced her to lean into her latest role. She recently told People, "I am married to a director, I know what it's like to hold the tempest of the movie in your head and the pressures and being pulled in a million directions."

John's also grateful that he has a wife like Emily. He told Paradein 2022, "On a daily basis, but certainly in a career-wise, as a dad, she pushes me to be better every single day at everything I do. So I look forward to the next day cause I know it'll be better than the one before."

Sigh. Excuse me โ€” I'll be somewhere crying about the way these two have shown up for each other over the years.

Take our favorite celebrity BFF's, Taylor Swift and Blake Lively, and our favorite celebrity couple, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, and you truly get one big happy family. Earlier this summer, Blake and Ryan showed up to the Eras Tour to support the "Fortnight" singer, and on July 25, Taylor returned the love by making a rare lengthy post to her Instagram story.

Here's everything you need to know about Taylor Swift's relationship with Blake Lively's kids as their godmother.

Taylor Swift/Instagram

Taylor Swift posted a photo to her Instagram story featuring Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman, and Shawn Levy โ€” all of whom are involved in Deadpool & Wolverine, in theaters July 26!

"Over the past few years I have watched one of my best friends on the planet pour every bit of his heart, soul, sweat, time, energy, jokes, pain, joy, rebellion, darkness, and magic into this film," she says. "He's created the best work of his life, and this film feels like an actual joy portal, a wild escape from reality, and an abs sandwich."

After joking that Ryan, Blake, and Shawn randomly crashed her photo, Taylor continues, saying, "Shout out to Wade Wilson [the character played by Ryan Reynolds], aka my godkids' sperm donor!"

Ryan Reynolds had the funniest reaction, and told Deadline, "I'm going to need that on my gravestone, actually."

"Yeah, that is kind of it. She is the godparent to my daughters," the Deadpool actor continued. "That was very sweet. Not just sweet, that was, like, you could probably quantify a box office based on Taylor just doing something like that."

Carlos Alvarez/Getty Images for TAS Rights Management/Noam Galai/Getty Images for Disney

In the past, Ryan Reynolds has been vocal about how much his kids (James, Inez, Betty, and Olin) love Taylor Swift, and the family's appearance at the Eras Tour even went viral!

"I think what's most exciting for them is that for the longest time they just thought Taylor's just like an aunt, like a friend of Mommy and Daddy that's very, very close, almost family," he says onThe Jess Cagle Show. "And then they went to a concert one day and were like, 'Ohhhhh, this isn't a hobby.'"

August 14, 2024 โ€” Lenny Kravitz Is Excited For Zoรซ's Wedding

Fans may be surprised to know Zoรซ Kravtiz and Channing Tatum didn't know each other before she shared her idea for Blink Twice. Spending time together snowballed into the romantic relationship they have today, but wedding bells aren't ringing soon. Though her dad, Lenny Kravitz announced he's excited for the couple's wedding (via Entertainment Tonight), Zoรซ admitted that she and Channing have talked about it "in passing," (via Esquire).

Also, you might want to erase the image of Zoรซ being a mother from your brain because she doesn't think she'll be taking on that role. It's something she used to be scared to admit, but feels more comfortable talking about these days (via Esquire).

"Thereโ€™s a lot of pressure on women to have children, and thereโ€™s a feeling that if you donโ€™t, you donโ€™t have purpose here. But this movie, it feels like I gave birth," she said.

โ€œWedding plans were looming, but neither of them were rushing to the altar,โ€ a source told Us Weekly, adding that their relaxed mindset ended up putting "a lot of pressure" on them. โ€œUltimately once [Blink Twice] ended, they realized they were on different pages with what they wanted. It fizzled fast after their press tour wrapped.โ€

A Page Six source reaffirms that the relationship ended on good terms, and even says the couple has โ€œbeen in touchโ€ and has โ€œno bad bloodโ€ between them. โ€œThere was no dramatic falling out between Channing and Zoรซ. They really just grew apart and decided it was best for them to go their separate ways,โ€ they say. They "both handled the breakup very maturely [but] came to a mutual realization that they were better off friends than romantic partners.โ€

Despite the breakup, another Page Six source says that Zoรซ Kravitz had a blast at a Halloween party. โ€œShe was in a good mood and seemed really happy,โ€ they say, remembering that she was โ€œdancing all night and having cocktails...having a great timeโ€ and โ€œwas so cute and nice.โ€

A source later told People that Channing Tatum is "doing well" following their breakup, adding that "he's focused on a new movie project in [North Carolina.] And he's spending time with his daughter when he's off."

Holidays are a 1000 times better with kids. From baking holiday treats together to getting in the spirit with DIY holiday decorations, everything about the festive season is new and exciting as they wait for the big day to arrive. My daughter recently turned 10 and there have been so many wins (and a few duds) under the tree that I thought I'd share our favorite gifts over the years (that are great for *all* kids, not just girls). From interactive toys to educational kits to gifts that will get them away from screens and excited for the outdoors, these unique gifts will inspire creativity and spark their imaginations while being totally fun too!

Woom Bike

My daughter has grown up with these bikes, from the Balance Bike to the Explore Bike with disc brakes, 7 gears and all-terrain tires, and she LOVES them. They're super light and glide easily, even the kickstand is so smooth. Woom Bikes are designed specifically for kids at every stage. They are pricier than other bike brands, but I find that they resell very quickly at a high price point so you essentially get your money back. Choose from an variety of colors and levels, and they even have a warehouse option for gently used Wooms.

Micro Kickboard Foldable LED Scooter

This is on our holiday wish list because my friend and her son love them so much. These scooters are Swiss-designed, three-wheeled, lightweight and durable enough for well kids. They conveniently fold for easy carrying and perfect for traveling and on-the-go and when your kiddo doesn't feel like walking (but you do).

Yoto Mini

For your future podcaster, this cute, compact audio player plays stories, music, and educational tracks. Kids just pop in a card for what they want to listen too and they can use it with or without headphones. It's great for long car rides!

Ravine Cooperative Game
