It looks like there’s a new hot couple in showbiz, with Pete Davidson spotted getting close to one of TV’s brightest leading ladies.

The 27-year-old Saturday Night Live comedian was spotted by a fan in a small village in the UK earlier this week, with none other than Bridgerton’s main star, Phoebe Dynevor.

Dynevor, 25, plays Daphne Bridgerton in the breakout period Netflix series, which broke viewership records becoming the streamer’s biggest show ever after only two months on the platform.

A schoolgirl in the village of Caverswall, three hours north of London in North Staffordshire, spotted the unlikely duo walking past her home, where it’s thought Dynevor lives nearby with her mother, Coronation Street actress Sally Dynevor.

Tilly Wagg, 14, told local publication StokeonTrentLive that the pair appeared to be in a romantic relationship.

“They walked past our house and we saw them holding hands and hugging each other,” she said.

“I saw his face from the side but I wasn’t sure if it was actually him. I thought ‘No, it can’t be.’ I left it but then my sister said, ‘Is that Pete Davidson?’

“I walked up to him and asked him if it was Pete Davidson and he said ‘no’ in an English accent but then later he said, ‘I’m just kidding,’ in an American accent. It was quite funny.

“They were really nice and lovely.

“It was strange to see them in Caverswall. I’ve never seen a famous person, never mind outside my house. It’s quite amazing I came across them.

“It looked like they were in a relationship and they seemed happy together.”

It is thought the pair met in New York last month, where Davidson lives. Dynevor was in the city filming the TV show, Younger.

She is due to begin filming the new Sky drama The Colour Room in central England next week.

Davidson has dated several high-profile women, including pop princess Ariana Grande, who he was engaged to for four months in 2018 before they sensationally broke it off.

He then moved on to British actress Kate Beckinsale, who is 20 years his senior, with the pair spotting kissing at a basketball game in early 2019. However, their relationship fizzled out after four months.
