DATING circles in showbiz are almost as small as those in Bridgerton, judging by the man who has caught the eye of the Netflix show’s Phoebe Dynevor.

I can reveal the actress is growing close to Ariana Grande’s ex-fiance, American comedian Pete Davidson.

Phoebe, who plays Daphne Bridgerton in the hit drama, is believed to have invited him to come to stay with her in the UK after they hit it off during her visit to New York last month.

Pete jetted 3,300 miles to visit Phoebe and they were last week seen together near her home in North London and again in Altrincham, Greater Manchester, where she was raised.

A source said: “Pete is a real charmer and has hit it off with Phoebe, who is obviously beautiful and talented. They have been enjoying each other’s company, although they haven’t known each other long.

“The fact he has flown all the way to the UK shows how interested he is.”

Pete was engaged to Ariana for four months until October 2018 and later dated movie siren Kate Beckinsale.

Phoebe, the daughter of Coronation Street veteran Sally Dynevor, who plays Sally Webster, is not the only actress with a famous mum Pete has been linked to.

In 2019 he romanced Once Upon A Time In Hollywood US actress Margaret Qualley, daughter of Four Weddings and a Funeral’s Andie MacDowell, and last year he dated American model Kaia Gerber, whose mum is Cindy Crawford.

He works on US show Saturday Night Live and appeared opposite Phoebe’s on-screen husband Rege-Jean Page in sketches on the programme last month when the actor guest-hosted.

But although Pete is huge in the US I can’t be the only bloke wondering how he’s catching the eye of all these beautiful stars. Best of luck to him, all the same. There’s hope for us all.

Phoebe is gearing up to film the second series of Bridgerton.

The first became Netflix’s most-watched original series ever after debuting in December with 82million households watching in its first 28 days.
Screen chemistry

Her last relationship is thought to have been with Skins actor Sean Teale in 2017.

Earlier this year she denied any romance with Rege-Jean, now dating part-time footballer Emily Brown, despite their on -screen chemistry.

She said: “I’d love to say there was really something between us, but no, it has always been strictly professional.”

That’s a relief, or filming sex scenes for the next series would have felt even more awkward  for the camera crew.
