It's been almost three years since Normal People took over our lives during lockdown, but we're still obsessed with Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar Jones. And we're pleased to report the onscreen couple's off-screen friendship is still going strong all these years later.
Daisy often shares pictures of Paul on Instagram and the pair are always spotted laughing and chatting when they're at the same events. But it's their onscreen chemistry that fans can't quite get over – so much so that there are always new rumours that the pair might be dating.
Are Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar Jones dating?
Even though we'd love it (and so would most people on TikTok, by the looks of things) if they were, Daisy Edgar Jones and Paul Mescal are not dating. Despite playing love interests in Normal People, the pair have both been in separate relationships since filming the show – with Paul even briefly getting engaged to singer Phoebe Bridgers.
While Paul is currently single, Daisy is reportedly dating Anna Taylor-Joy's photographer ex-boyfriend, Ben Seed (who goes by the name of Pip). Rumour has it they've been spotted on several dates near where Daisy lives in east London.
So while they remain close friends and spend a lot of time together, there's no sign of a Daisy and Paul romance anytime soon.
Are Daisy Edgar Jones and Paul Mescal still friends?
This we are happy to confirm. Paul recently featured in Daisy's Instagram montage of her summer, and last Halloween they even dressed up as Fleabag and the hot priest. Daisy shared a photo of her and Paul in their costumes on Instagram with the caption, 'Oh btw Paul and I did this for Halloween'.
In November 2022, Daisy also attended the premiere of Aftersun – the nostalgic film that earned Paul an Oscar nomination for his portrayal of single dad Calum, who takes his 11-year-old daughter Sophie (Frankie Corio) on holiday to Turkey.
In interviews, the actors often refer to each other as their 'best friend' and, after Normal People was released, Daisy revealed that she found a 'friend for life' in Paul. Aw.
