Things I love: 1) Josh O'Connor, 2) The random feud between Paul Simon's daughter and Richard Gere, 3) feeling resentful/jealous of all the celebrities yachting in Europe this summer, and 4) when two people from a TV show start dating in real life.
Enter Olivia Cooke and Ralph Davis, who both star on HBO's House of the Dragon, clearly fell for each other on set, and are now "Kissing at Wimbledon Official." On that note, settle in for a love story:

Ralph starts filming Season 2 of House of the Dragon as Ser Leon Estermont, one of King Aegon II Targaryen’s Kingsguard. This is presumably where he and Olivia met, but it's possible they knew each other from before? The world may never know.

The Daily Mail publishes pics of Olivia and Ralph walking around Soho, but makes it seem like they're just friendly costars, musing that they're enjoying "a catch-up around the city." Plus, the pair keep their distance in pics and the vibes are very platonic.

Olivia posts some behind-the-scenes photos from House of the Dragon, including one that features Ralph. But no one reads too far into things juuuuust yet due to this photo being part of a larger group with tonssss of cast members.

Olivia and Ralph go on holiday together and she tags him in a photo. Curious.

Fans become more and more convinced that Olivia and Ralph are dating, as they spend more time together:
July 9, 2025
Olivia and Ralph go public with their relationship by attending Wimbledon together and straight-up kissing for the camera.
They're obviously extremely cute and I'll be invested until further notice, goodbye.
