Heartstopper actor Joe Locke and trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney drew attention—and admiration—when they attended Sabrina Carpenter’s concert at BST Hyde Park this past Saturday, showcasing a notably affectionate display.

Locke, 21, best known for portraying Charlie Spring in the Netflix hit Heartstopper, appeared relaxed in a white T-shirt and jeans, topped with a black sweater and a cheeky “Straight 4 pay $” cap. Mulvaney, 28, wore a blue floral mini dress, white heels, and matching hair clips. The pair was frequently photographed dancing together, sharing drinks, and chatting closely, marking one of their first major public outings since their relationship “hard launch” via a couples photo on social media.

The Instagram post, captioned “First couples shoot thank you for having us at camp koko,” featured both together, and Locke’s reply—“Hard launch”—confirmed their romantic pairing. Fans flooded the comments with enthusiasm: “Wait… Is this a hard launch?!?” and “Hot Couple!” offered glimpses into the public excitement.

Joe has been openly gay since age twelve and has previously shared his journey in interviews with Teen Vogue. Dylan rose to prominence with her TikTok series documenting her gender transition and authored Paper Doll: Notes from a Late Bloomer. Despite public backlash years ago—most notably during the Bud Light boycott—Mulvaney has continued to advocate for LGBTQ representation and inclusivity.

The couple’s affectionate outing at Sabrina Carpenter’s concert has sparked widespread buzz, highlighting their chemistry and mutual support. As both celebrities continue to rise in their respective fields, fans and media will be watching their romance—and public appearances—closely moving forward.
