Who Is Bridgerton Star Nicola Coughlan’s Rumored Boyfriend, Jake Dunn? All About Him As Couple Seemingly Confirm Romance

As a dedicated fan who has followed Nicola Coughlan’s career since her early days on Derry Girls, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of joy and anticipation when I saw the recent photos of her with Jake Dunn. It seems that the rumors about their relationship have been confirmed, and as someone who has witnessed Coughlan’s transformation from a budding actress to a household name, I can’t help but be excited for her happiness.


It seems that Nicola Coughlan, who gained fame playing Penelope Featherington on Bridgerton, has made her alleged relationship with Jake Dunn more apparent. The pair were spotted together during a night out in London, appearing affectionate and comfortable as they walked down the street following their departure from an Irish pub.

The two of them were dressed comfortably; Coughlan wore a mustard cardigan and a mini black dress accessorized with black tights, loafers, while Dunn opted for a casual outfit too, sporting a white and maroon baseball tee with green cargo pants, a blue cap, and white sneakers.

Recently, Coughlan and Dunn have frequently been seen together, leading spectators to wonder if they might be more than just friends.

The whispers about the romantic connection between Coughlan and Dunn started in August, after they were spotted attending the All Points East music festival in London as a pair. Their lively demeanor fueled the initial speculation about their relationship.

After these encounters, both of them made several more public outings, sparking speculation among fans about the nature of their relationship beyond friendship. Coughlan, who prefers to keep her personal matters private, has yet to make any official comments regarding her relationship with Dunn. However, photos recently obtained by PEOPLE suggest that they might be growing closer romantically.

Jake Dunn stars as the main character in Disney+’s The Ballad of Renegade Nell, a series that is set to continue for a second season, centering around his character. Lately, he has finished performances in the highly praised Channel 4 series Big Boys and will appear in the upcoming Wilhelm Tell movie.

As an aspiring actor honing my craft at a prestigious drama school, I’ve had the privilege to bring characters to life in various captivating productions. Most notably, I graced the stage as the lead in Kes! at the Bolton Octagon and made recurring appearances in Netflix’s The Bastard Son & The Devil Himself. I was also fortunate enough to star in both seasons of Get Even on Netflix, and even lent my talents to the short film Muse, directed by the talented Lisa Clarkson. It’s remarkable to think that these roles were all secured during my time at drama school, a testament to the power of passion, hard work, and seizing every opportunity that comes my way.

The recent appearance with Jake Dunn occurs as Coughlan’s part in Bridgerton becomes increasingly well-known. In the third season of the Netflix historical series, released in May, Coughlan’s character Penelope and her longtime love interest, Colin Bridgerton, portrayed by Luke Newton, develop their relationship further. The compelling on-screen chemistry between Coughlan and Newton sparked romance speculations, which were swiftly debunked by sources close to the actors.

In the buzz surrounding the third season of Bridgerton, viewers have been wondering if there could be a romantic connection between their favorite stars, Phoebe Dynevor and Luke Newton, as they were spotted together, linked arm in arm, at the series’ premiere event in Australia.

Despite appearing as though they were romantically involved, their strong bond of friendship was merely misunderstood. A confidante of the actors shared with PEOPLE that there was no romantic relationship between them; instead, they were simply good friends and mutually supportive co-stars. The confidante’s statement helped fans redirect their speculations, but whispers of a romance lingered until Coughlan was seen in public with Dunn.

During a recent chat with SiriusXM Hits 1, Coughlan spoke about her strong relationship with Newton, reminiscing on their ease during filming intimate scenes for the series. “They would often ask us between takes if we wanted to get dressed,” Coughlan joked, “but we’d just say, ‘Let’s stay here.’ We were so relaxed, even under the covers.

Newton described during his chat with 7News Australia that the set had a very comfortable atmosphere. He explained, “It truly felt like a secure environment.” He added, “There were instances when we could experiment with scenes and approach them differently, which ultimately led to some prop being damaged.
