Irish actor Paul Mescal has been all the rage this past year, thanks to his breakout role in the hit show “Normal People”. And while fans couldn’t get enough of his on-screen chemistry with co-star Daisy Edgar-Jones, it seems like Mescal has found a real-life romance to swoon over as well.
The 24-year-old actor recently made his relationship with American singer-songwriter Gracie Abrams Instagram official in July. The couple shared a sweet photo of them cuddling up together, with Mescal simply captioning it with a red heart emoji.
The news spread like wildfire among fans, who were quick to ship the new celebrity couple. And now, Mescal has finally broken his silence about his relationship with Abrams in an interview with NME.
In the interview, Mescal gushes about Abrams, calling her “deeply precious” and revealing that he wants “to protect” their relationship. The actor also shared how the two met and connected over their love for music.

It’s heartwarming to see the two talented individuals find love in each other. And with their mutual love for music, it’s no surprise that Mescal and Abrams hit it off right away. Both have been vocal about their admiration for each other’s work, with Mescal even sharing a video of himself singing along to Abrams’ song “Minor” on his Instagram story.
Mescal also opened up about the challenges of maintaining a relationship in the public eye, especially with his rising fame. He expressed his desire to protect his and Abrams’ relationship from the constant scrutiny of the media.
“It’s something that I have to factor into my thinking now,” Mescal said. “It’s not something I’m used to, but it’s something I’m learning to navigate. It’s about trying to keep something that is very special and precious to me, private.”
Despite the attention that comes with being in the spotlight, Mescal remains grounded and authentic. He continues to prioritize his relationship with Abrams, making sure to keep it “deeply personal and private.”
The couple’s decision to go public on Instagram is a testament to their commitment to each other. And while it may invite some unwanted attention, it is also a way for Mescal and Abrams to show the world that they are happy and in love.
