Are ‘Bridgerton’ Stars Dating? Rege-Jean Page Jokes About Romantic Relationship With Phoebe Dynevor
On the Netflix series “Bridgerton,” Regé-Jean Page and Phoebe Dynevor have undeniable on-screen chemistry, and it appears their relationship is starting to spark dating rumors off-screen.
During an interview with Access, the actors were asked about romance rumors suggesting they were dating in real life, but Page attempted to dodge the question.
Instead, he credited the writers for creating “the beautiful scripts” that tell a convincing love story.
“I think that everything you need to know is on camera,” Page said while laughing.
Page then began to blush as he continued to address the dating rumors. “The sparky words, scripts, and material are more than enough,” the 31-year-old said.
Page later made light of the dating rumors when anchor Kit Hoover joked that he and Dynevor were “actually together” and doing their interview from the same place even though they were in different locations.
“We’re playing footsie under here,” Page said while pretending Dynevor was near him for the flirty game.
“Bridgerton” is based on the Julia Quinn book series, which follows the lives of families in British high society in 1913 as their romances are exposed by a mysterious columnist, Lady Whistledown.
In the series, Dynevor’s character Daphne Bridgerton is the love interest of Page’s character Simon Basset, Duke of Hastings.
The Shonda Rhimes-produced series premiered on Dec. 25 and has already become the fifth-biggest original release to stream on the platform, Us Weekly reports. While “Bridgerton” has been praised by most people, the show has received some criticism for its diverse cast.
However, Page previously told Entertainment Weekly he appreciates the diverse cast, which allows him to represent the Black community. “With color-conscious casting, I get to exist as a Black person in the world,” he said.
“It doesn’t mean I’m a slave. It doesn’t mean we have to focus on trauma. It just means we get to focus on Black joy and humanity.”
Netflix has yet to announce whether “Bridgerton” will be renewed for a second season.
