Coughlan and Dunn, both actors, were first linked romantically in August 2024. However, they only made their relationship public in October 2024, when they were photographed on a date in London. The couple has since been spotted together on several occasions, sparking interest among fans and media.

This sighting follows a moment of public attention in which Dunn posted a playful reference to one of Coughlan’s interviews. In the interview, Coughlan described herself as a "woman with perfect breasts," which Dunn humorously referenced with a photo of friends wearing shirts and hats featuring Coughlan's name. Dunn’s post also included a nod to Coughlan’s Bridgerton character, Lady Whistledown, with another friend sporting a "Shady Whistledown" hat.

Coughlan, who plays Penelope Featherington in Bridgerton, reprised her role in the show’s third season, which aired in June 2024. In this installment, her character took on a more prominent role as the main female lead, alongside Luke Newton, who plays Colin Bridgerton.

While fans speculated about a potential romance between Coughlan and Newton, the actress clarified that they are just good friends.

The upcoming season of Bridgerton will feature Luke Thompson as Benedict Bridgerton and Yerin Ha as Sophie Baek.
