Fans of the wildly popular show ‘Bridgerton’ have been entranced by the captivating on-screen romance between Colin and Penelope, played by the immensely talented Luke Newton and Nicola Coughlan. With natural chemistry that sparks across the screen, whispers began to circulate about a potential off-screen romance blooming between the co-stars.
Despite the palpable on-screen chemistry, Luke Newton firmly shut down the rumors. He stressed the importance of keeping their relationship strictly platonic. While Coughlan has expressed a fondness for relationships that blossom from friendships, Newton maintained that a real-life romance was out of the question. Their bond, however studded with flirty on-set antics, remains rooted in friendship.
Luke however was more dismissive of something ever happening between him and Nicola, admitting: “I actually don’t think friends-to-lovers is something that happens in my life.
If I meet someone, I know immediately. There’s a difference between me and Colin.”
And whilst they’re not dating it seems both Nicola and Luke were so comfortable with each other on the Bridgerton set that they’d relax naked together in between filming sex scenes. She told Teen Vogue: “Yeah, so it’s really funny.
That is true. It is a testament to the fact that we just got to a point where we were so comfortable together. We’d just finished the big sex scene, the most intense and involved one…and we just felt relieved.”
