Florence Pugh and her boyfriend from Peaky Blinders, Finn Cole, have fun Christmas shopping in London. The actress shared she is ready to settle down after a busy few years.

Florence Pugh enjoyed a spot of Christmas shopping with her new boyfriend Finn Cole in London on Wednesday, as the couple were spotted together for the first time since sparking romance rumours. 

The Oscar-nominated actress, 28, and the Peaky Blinders star, 29, were first romantically linked in September, but have not publicly confirmed their relationship.

But they looked happy and relaxed as they walked Florence’s pet dog Billie through Sloane Square, while checking out several shops on the way.

The We Live In Time star put on a typically fashionable display as she wrapped up in a red leather coat and black wide-legged jeans.

She added a pair of black high-heeled boots and a beige handbag, while hiding her famous face under a brown baseball cap. 

While Finn cut an understated figure in an oversized camouflage jacket, black trousers and eye-catching yellow trainers.

The couple – who have been friends for several years – were first reported to be secretly dating after they were seen slipping out of the after-party for the London premiere of Netflix hit The Perfect Couple together in September.

They had previously been seen partying at Glastonbury Festival together, while Florence has ‘liked’ every Instagram post of Finn’s this year and shared her delight when it was revealed he had landed a role in the theatre production Red Speedo.

She commented on the post: ‘Oh my gosh this is unbelievably exciting!’ and added that she’d be bringing her beloved grandmother, sharing: ‘Granny Pat wants to come… #obvi’.

Finn is best known for playing Michael Gray in the BBC series Peaky Blinders, which he starred in alongside his brother Joe.

While Florence hasn’t named Finn as her boyfriend, she confirmed she was in a relationship in September, opening up about her loved-up status during a cover shoot with Vogue.

She confirmed: ‘I am [in a relationship]. OK, so something that I resonate with is that I believe that if magic is real, then it’s falling in love.’

Florence candidly revealed that she and her partner were ‘figuring it out’ and said she is ready to start a family.

She added: ‘We are figuring what we actually are. And I think for the first time, I’m not allowing myself to go on a roller-coaster. 

‘I’m allowing myself to take time to let something evolve and let it be completely real to its core, as opposed to racing into that.

‘Falling is the most amazing feeling but unfortunately if that’s the only thing that you know in a relationship, then that’s the thing that you chase. That’s not gonna last.’

Last week, she admitted that putting all her focus on her Hollywood career above all else had caused her to feel as though her life had ‘spun’ out of control.

Florence revealed that after wrapping her latest film, We Live In Time, she was forced to reevaluate her work/life balance and how many sacrifices she had made by putting her personal life on the backburner.

In an interview with The Sunday Times, she revealed how ‘relationships came and went’ after she split from her long-term boyfriend, Zach Braff, in 2022. 

The Little Women star decided to take a career hiatus this year – her first since her debut film, The Falling, in 2014 – to focus on her personal life.  

She explained: ‘I had this opportunity to look at my life away from my work. And I realised, “OK, I need to wake the f*** up.” 

‘I had to look away from my career, from movies, from wanting to be this kind of actor, that kind of actor. Or how many awards I would love to get before I pass away. 

‘That’s been my focus for ten years, but I want to make sure that the things I need to do, whether [that’s] children, family, change, change in relationships … well, I realised I need to make changes now. 

‘Because I’m a worker bee and that is why I’ve never wanted a break. Everything was just, “Wow! What’s next?” And it is only ten years in that I can now go, “Oh, I need to do a bit of my life”.’

Florence is promoting the romantic drama We Live In Time, directed by John Crowley, which sees her play Almut alongside Andrew Garfield as Tobias, a couple brought together in a surprise meeting that changes their lives for ever. 

Prior to Finn, Florence was in a relationship with former Scrubs star Zach, 49, from 2019 until their split in 2022.

Giving a rare insight into their relationship, the star explained the toll that trolling about the couple’s age-gap had taken on both of them.

She said: ‘I had to be public in the past because people were bullying me and bullying my partner.

‘Mine and Zach’s relationship was actually quite private until it was nasty, and I could see the toll that it was taking on him and us and our families. And that’s when I spoke out.

‘I think for anyone I’m with, I want to protect them. It’s not nice knowing that people are saying the worst things I’ve ever read about someone that I love.

‘So that was necessary. I needed to talk about it. I think any relationship in this limelight is going to be stressed.’
