Who is Finn Cole, who Florence Pugh is reportedly dating?
Florence Pugh revealed in a September 2024 interview that she was dating someone new, following her relationship with Zach Braff. Recent reports linked her to actor Finn Cole, after the pair were spotted hand in hand. So who is he, and what does their relationship look like so far?
Speaking to British Vogue to promote her new movie We Live In Time, Florence shared how she is someone who loves being in love, and the safety and security that comes from being in a relationship. Though she didn't name the person she was talking about, she added that she was dating someone and "we are figuring what we actually are. And I think for the first time, I’m not allowing myself to go on a roller coaster. I’m allowing myself to take time to let something evolve and let it be completely real to its core, as opposed to racing into that."
She added, "Falling [in love] is the most amazing feeling, but unfortunately if that’s the only thing that you know in a relationship, then that’s the thing that you chase. That’s not gonna last."

September 2024
On 4th September 2024, The Sun shared how 28-year-old Florence was "secretly dating" 28-year-old actor Finn Cole, adding that they had been photographed leaving The Perfect Couple’s London premiere after-party together. "Florence and Finn appeared to be very much together and they were having a great time," the insider said.
"They kept a low profile at the premiere and party, and left out of the back door together and got into the same car. They were there to support friends in the film and seemed keen not to be pictured or seen."
An insider added to the Daily Mail, "I saw them holding hands at the after-party at The Hoxton hotel."

Finn is an actor from Kingston in London, who's most recognisable as Michael Gray in the BBC series Peaky Blinders. He also had a role in Animal Kingdom as Joshua Cody, and in the Fast & Furious film F9 as a young Jakob Toretto.
He has also recently starred in the play Red Speedo at the Orange Tree theatre in London. You can find him on Instagram @finn_cole where he shares photos from his holidays with friends and projects. A small bit of digging shows Florence has liked Finn's pics as far back as January 2024.
