She has been Britain’s golden girl since her hit comedy Fleabag made her a global superstar.
But unlike her chaotic alter ego, things certainly seem to be going right for Phoebe Waller-Bridge, whose company made £16million last year.
The 38-year-old actress and author could also be close to the happy ending that Fleabag hinted at, as she has fueled speculation of an engagement to filmmaker and playwright Martin McDonagh.
Waller-Bridge, who has been dating Oscar winner McDonagh, 53, since 2017, sparked rumors that the pair were about to get married by wearing a huge diamond ring on her engagement finger at her brother’s wedding at the weekend.
And the star certainly didn’t appear to be keeping a low profile in a bright pink Etro suit costing £1,945, a matching waistcoat costing £400 and a black tie.

She was accompanied by her film-maker significant other as her brother Jasper Waller-Bridge married Downton Abbey actress Michelle Dockery at St Nicholas’ Church in Chiswick, west London.
Waller-Bridge and McDonagh are considered one of the film world’s most prolific power couples, regularly supporting each other on the red carpet.
The actress was on hand to celebrate with her partner at this year’s Oscars, where his film “The Banshees of Inisherin” was nominated for nine awards.
“It’s really useful to be with someone who I think is a genius. It just ups the game,” she previously said of their relationship.
Waller-Bridge, who most recently starred opposite Harrison Ford in Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, has had a successful year both financially and in her love life.
According to Companies House, her company PMWB Limited made almost £16 million in the financial year ending last November.
She won Golden Globes, Emmys and a BAFTA for the smash hit Fleabag and was nominated for her work as a writer and producer on Killing Eve.

Since then, she co-wrote the latest James Bond film, No Time to Die, and appeared in Solo: A Star Wars Story. In 2019, she signed a three-year, £60 million deal with Amazon.
Waller-Bridge was previously married to Irish filmmaker Conor Woodman, but the two separated in 2017 after three years of marriage.
A spokesperson for Waller-Bridge did not respond to a question about whether the star was engaged earlier this month.
But it would certainly signal that she has moved on after her divorce from her first husband, Irish author and documentary filmmaker Woodman, 49, was finalized last year.
Until recently, she kept quiet about her recent relationship with McDonagh, who at 53 is 15 years her senior.
They were first seen together at a screening of McDonagh’s Oscar-winning film “Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri” in 2017.

When asked if they would read each other’s work, Waller-Bridge, who co-wrote the script for the latest Bond film, No Time to Die, replied: “We don’t really share anything in advance.” . I just really, really like him.
“So when you show someone something and they like it, it can become this blur.”
She admired his work long before she met him and admitted that he had a huge influence on her.
“It’s really useful to be around someone who I think is a genius, it just ups the game,” she said.
“I always wanted Martin McDonagh to think my work was good, whether I was with him or not. ‘I’ll find out now, one way or another.’
