Is Luke Thompson dating anyone in 2024?

Yes! Luke Thompson isn’t single, as it was reported that he is dating one of his co-stars from Bridgerton: Harriet Cains, who portrays Philipa Featherington, one of Penelope’s sisters, in the iconic series.

Although it all started as rumors on social media, the couple was first seen together at the Vanity Fair Rising Stars party in January 2024, confirming their new relationship and looking genuinely in love.

Even though the pictures from the party might suggest they’re just good friends, the actress herself fueled the rumors in 2021 by sharing a photo of the actor’s face with heart emojis and writing “My favorite Luke is @lukenewtonuk“.

According to Hello!, the 35-year-old star who portrays Benedict Bridgerton spoke with Time Out about his sexuality in an interview after playing a gay character in the theatrical adaptation of “A Little Life”. There he said:

“Why do you have to set the record straight? Let people think what they want to think… It’s a complicated debate. There’s value in the authenticity [of having an LGBTQ+ actor in a role]. But also, the whole point of acting is that you step into someone else’s experience”.
