Normal People’s Paul Mescal has officially engaged to singer Phoebe Bridgers after a two-year relationship
Paul Mescal is ‘officially engaged’ to his girlfriend of two years, Phoebe Bridgers.
The Irish actor, 26, and the Punisher singer, 28, were first linked romantically in 2020 before making their red carpet debut at the LACMA Art+Film Gala in November and officially taking to Instagram in December.
And during Paul’s recent interview, The Guardian claims the engagement speculation has been confirmed.

In May this year, the couple sparked engagement rumors at the California Music Festival when they mingled with guests at a party on the festival’s second weekend.
One partygoer is said to have remarked that Phoebe made no secret of the two duos scheduled to walk down the aisle, but The Sun reported that she wasn’t wearing an engagement ring.
Paul was also spotted at the US festival with his girlfriend Daisy Edgar-Jones, the duo becoming closer after starring in the BBC adaptation of Sally Rooney’s novel Normal People.

It came just months after the couple went official on Instagram, the sweet snap took to social media.
The 27-year-old Kyoto singer took to the photo-sharing app in December to confirm her relationship with a much-loved picture of the pair.
While it was the pair’s first time making their social media debut, the couple walked the red carpet at last month’s LACMA Art+Film Gala.
They were also spotted taking a very leisurely stroll in Los Angeles.
The couple became romantically linked after a source told The Sun they spent a weekend together in August 2020.
The insider shared, “Paul invited friends over and they played wild drinking games. They both have a crush. His membership on celebrity dating site Raya is a smoke screen to cover up that they are secretly an item.

Paul has previously been open about his romance, telling GQ Magazine: “Having someone to lean on at such a crazy, crazy time has been invaluable. Really, I don’t know where I would be without her.”
Meanwhile, in May, the indie rock star told NME magazine that she thought Paul was a “cute boy” after becoming a fan of his after watching Normal People.
She continued to follow him on Instagram, and the actor was quick to return the favor.

“I got a little pitter-ratter in my heart when I saw it,” she gushed.
The couple soon met when the actor joined Phoebe for a vodcast for her Instagram Live.
During her Instagram Live, Paul also admitted, “I think it’s well documented that I love your music.”
Phoebe then replied: “Well that makes me blush.”
Paul and the singer then stayed together on Zoom after the live ended, where they drank together for several hours.
