Nicola Coughlan and Luke Newton, the charming and attractive team who will bring Penelope Featherington and Colin Bridgerton’s love story to life in the upcoming Bridgerton Season 3, have us all guessing: Will their relationship continue when the cameras stop rolling?!
The co-stars were recently seen holding hands at a promotional event for the hit Netflix series, fueling speculation that their friendship may have turned into a real-life romance.
Ooh, la la! However, are these two co-stars an item off-camera, or are they just close friends who have built an unbreakable bond after years of working together? Let’s look into Nicola and Luke’s relationship—and hear what they say about the s*x scenes.
Are Luke Newton and Nicola Coughlan Actually Dating?
It appears that, despite their sultry on-screen chemistry, Luke and Nicola are merely good friends in real life. They may have started dating rumors when they were seen holding hands at a Bridgerton event, but they haven’t indicated in any other way that they’ve advanced their relationship.
Speaking to a group of fans in advance of the next season of Bridgerton, Nicola said, “We’ve known each other for five years now, and people were like, ‘What did you do to build the chemistry?'” And I’m thinking, ‘Well, we didn’t have to do anything; it was good; we just stopped suppressing it.'”
Additionally, Nicola said to Tudum, “Going into this, I couldn’t ask for a greater companion. Luke has my utmost confidence, and I hope he has the strength inside me to follow through.” In 2022, Luke shared his thoughts with Shondaland, referring to Colin and Penelope’s romance as a “real slow burn.”

He went on, “But what I really adore about Colin and Penelope is how long their relationship has been together and how long it took to get to this point, where it’s not even regarded as a relationship.” “I have a lot of fun playing that.”
Is Nicola Coughlan Romantically Involved?
As Nicola prefers to keep her personal life quiet, we are unsure if she is in a relationship. (When you need Lady Whistledown, where are you?). We do know, though, that the Barbie actress—who studied English at the National University of Ireland—values a speller in a companion.
She described a “beige flag” as follows: “This is really snobby, but when someone uses the wrong ‘you’re,’ that makes me go ‘oh’, which is bad, it’s bad, but then I think ‘you just have to accept that’…but it can make me cringe a little bit.”
Who is Luke Newton Dating?
Before stealing scenes on Bridgerton, Luke began his career in the 2016–2018 Disney Channel UK series The Lodge, where he allegedly developed feelings for co-star Sophie Simnett, who portrayed his love interest. His romance with Welsh theater actress and vocalist Jade Davies terminated when the production concluded.

Luke stated of Jade in a PopSugar interview in 2021, “She’s got an amazing memory, much better than mine, so it’s kind of nice for me to look back and go, ‘Oh, that’s what we were doing that day,’ rather than just remembering the photo.”
Four years together, Luke and Jade’s love tale came to an end in March 2023. A source blamed the couple’s hectic schedules for the breakup. Whatever Polin shippers would have you believe, Luke hasn’t been associated with anyone new since splitting from Jade!
