All About Jake Dunn, Nicola Coughlan’s Boyfriend
Bridgerton’s Nicola Coughlan hasn’t ever spoken about her actual love existence. However, Coughlan has commented on persistent rumors that she and Bridgerton co-star Luke Newton were digital dating. The pair play a romantic couple on the show and are very close. But as she told Time in October 2024, they are just friends.
“A lot of people really want me to marry Luke,” she explained. “We have this gorgeous friendship. We have such a love for one another and this life that I’ll never hold with someone else again. Isn’t it gorgeous that a man and female can have that sort of relationship with one another?”
But there is one actor she has been romantically linked to: 24-year-old British actor Jake Dunn. After months of speculation, Coughlan confirmed their association on Feb. 12, 2025, when she shared a birthday tribute to Dunn on her Instagram Story. It marked the first time she has publicly acknowledged their romance. Here’s everything to know about Dunn and his connection with Coughlan so far:

I don’t think about Jake Dunn much since I haven’t seen any of his work or follow him on social media. All I know is that he’s an actor who appeared in Renegade Nell and sometimes hangs out with Nicola and her group.
But I think you may be asking me about him regarding his connection with Nicola, and I don’t possess strong feelings about it. Perform I think they’re dating? I have no idea?
Do I consider they’re friends? Yes, I assume they are friends who suspend out together.
It’s strange how people often assume that any interaction between a celebrity and someone of the opposite sex must mean they’re dating. It’s as if people can’t just be friends with someone of the opposite sex. This kind of speculation frustrates me, similar to how people were convinced that Luke Thompson and Harriet Caines were dating just because they were seen together.
