Rumor has it that Florence Pugh is secretly engaged...and if you’re thinking, “I didn’t even know Miss Flo was dating anyone!” you’re not alone. The actress has been keeping her rumored relationship with fellow actor Finn Cole on the down-low since they were first spotted together last September, but according to The Sun, the pair is now engaged after just about a year of dating.
Per a source: “Finn and Florence have been in a bubble getting to know each other away from the spotlight. They are both putting everything into their careers but have found something special between them.” Hi, love that for them.
Ofc, Flo still hasn’t publicly confirmed that she and Finn are dating (much less whether or not they’re engaged), buuuut if you’re a fan of period dramas starring attractive people with accents, then you are well aware of him.
Finn is best known for playing Michael Gray in Peaky Blinders, which he stars in alongside his brother Joe. But you might have also seen him on TNT’s Animal Kingdom, a very important show that, frankly, we as a society are not talking about enough.
Some facts about Finn? He is 29 years old, from South West London, has four brothers, is a big fan of rugby, and plays the guitar. “I have surrounded myself with quite creative people—a lot of musicians—and so I love to go and watch my friends play. We’ll go and watch live music together or make music together,” Finn told The Gentleman’s Journal. “Or we just hang out—watching movies or going to the pub and having a drink. It’s a lot of that.”
As for his acting career, Finn started doing theater when he was in school and told Interview that he “had a teacher who I got along with, one of my favorite teachers, and he got me into it.” TBD how he met Florence, but given that they (a) are the same age, (b) have the same job, and (c) are both from the UK, it seemed inevitable their paths would cross.
We do know, however, that they’ve been friends since back in 2017. Which brings us to the relationship timeline portion of our journey together.

Florence confirms she’s in a relationship without naming names, telling British Vogue, “Yes. We are figuring what we actually are.

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.”
Florence adds that falling in love is “the most amazing feeling” but that “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.”
