Florence Pugh Has Found the Sexiest Relationship Status: Not a Secret, Not Your Business
The actor is happy, secure and very much not interested in turning her romance with Finn Cole into a public group project.
Florence Pugh has a message for anyone waiting patiently—or aggressively—for a full tour of her love life: the relationship is real, she is happy, and the rest can stay behind the velvet rope.
In a new interview with Vanity Fair, Pugh offered a rare update on her romance with fellow actor Finn Cole, the Peaky Blinders star she has been linked to since 2024. Her explanation for keeping things private was refreshingly modern: she does not want to be hidden, but she also has no interest in making her relationship available for public consumption on demand.
“I don’t want to be a secret,” Pugh said. “But I also don’t want everything to be divulged.”
That is not a breakup tease, a soft-launch breadcrumb or a carefully staged couple’s campaign. It is something much more radical in celebrity culture: a famous woman saying the romance exists without handing over the password.
Florence Pugh Is Keeping the Door Closed, Not Locked
Pugh, 30, described the relationship in distinctly un-Hollywood language. She said she feels “solid and safe and sturdy,” adding that the connection is “worth its weight in gold” in their lives.
There is a lot packed into those three words. “Safe” is the one celebrities tend to reach for when they want to communicate that a relationship is emotionally meaningful without narrating every date night. “Solid” suggests this is not just a glamorous festival flirtation or a two-month paparazzi subplot. “Sturdy” is practically an anti-rumor statement. It is not flashy, but it has the unmistakable energy of someone who has decided that peace is hotter than performance.
Cole even joked with her before the interview that he might appear and become part of the conversation himself. As Pugh recalled, he asked, “Well, shall I pop by?” It is an exceedingly cute detail—and also a reminder that this is not a one-sided privacy policy. The relationship appears to be something they are choosing to protect together, rather than a situation where one person is hiding in the wings while the other does all the explaining.
That distinction matters for Pugh, who has previously been criticized for her romantic choices and has spoken openly about the pressure surrounding her four-year relationship with Zach Braff. Pugh and Braff dated from 2019 to 2022, and the age gap became a recurring public conversation even as Pugh repeatedly defended the relationship.
With Cole, she seems less interested in arguing with the audience at all.
The Romance Started With a Festival Glimpse, Then a Boundary
Pugh and Cole were first romantically linked after an outing at Glastonbury in June 2024. A few months later, she acknowledged the relationship while speaking to British Vogue, though even then she resisted the urge to slap a neat label on it.
“We are figuring what we actually are,” she said at the time. “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.”
That quote now reads less like early-stage uncertainty and more like a blueprint. Pugh was not trying to generate suspense; she was trying to avoid turning a new relationship into a race toward public definition. In an industry where couples can go from first sighting to coordinated red carpet appearances to engagement speculation before anyone has learned each other’s coffee order, taking time is almost a rebellious act.
She also identified what she wanted from a relationship with unusual clarity: “Safety, family, a home,” followed by “security.” Those are not words associated with a celebrity romance designed to feed the algorithm. They sound like the foundation of a life she wants to build away from the algorithm.
And yet Pugh has not treated Cole like a forbidden name. In March, she shared a sweet red-carpet shot from a date night with him. That is the sweet spot she appears to have landed on: visible enough to acknowledge the person beside her, private enough to keep the relationship from becoming a serialized entertainment product.
The New Celebrity Hard Launch Is Sometimes a Soft Boundary
For years, the celebrity relationship playbook came with two settings. Either a couple denied everything until they were photographed leaving the same restaurant three nights in a row, or they arrived on a red carpet in matching looks and made the relationship official with the subtlety of a fireworks display.
Now there is a third option: tell the truth, share the occasional beautiful moment, and refuse to provide a director’s commentary.
Pugh’s approach is especially striking because she understands the appeal of a public romance. She is one of the most recognizable actors of her generation, Cole has his own devoted audience thanks to Peaky Blinders and Gangs of London, and their shared profession gives the pairing a ready-made narrative. Two charismatic actors, one festival sighting, a red-carpet appearance, and enough mystery to keep everyone checking for updates: the internet would happily turn that into a 12-part series.
Instead, Pugh is offering something far less convenient and arguably far more compelling. She is saying the relationship can be important without being content. It can be acknowledged without being dissected. It can be public in the broadest sense and still belong to the people actually living it.
That may be the most interesting thing about this romance so far. Not the Glastonbury sighting. Not the red carpet. Not even the possibility of Cole “popping by” mid-interview. The real plot is Pugh learning how to be seen without surrendering the entire room.
“I don’t want to be a secret” is the hard launch. “I don’t want everything to be divulged” is the boundary. Together, they make a very convincing case for a celebrity relationship that is neither hidden nor hungry for attention—and Florence Pugh seems perfectly happy living in that space.
Julia Haart’s Divorce Just Got a Wild New Plot Twist: Her Ex Has a No-Bail Warrant
Silvio Scaglia’s $90 million split from the “My Unorthodox Life” star was supposed to be over. Instead, a judge is demanding 14 days in jail after repeated court absences and alleged transfers of marital assets.
Julia Haart and Silvio Scaglia finally ended their four-year, $90 million divorce battle a few weeks ago, with Haart walking away with Elite World Group and the couple’s $57 million Tribeca apartment. In a normal divorce story, that would be the closing credits: one glamorous ex takes the agency, the other takes the financial migraine, and everybody retreats to separate corners of Manhattan or Europe.
But this is not a normal divorce story. This is the world of My Unorthodox Life, where the courtroom drama appears to have its own sequel, spinoff and international travel budget.
According to court papers obtained by Page Six, a New York judge has issued a no-bail bench warrant for Scaglia’s arrest and ordered him jailed for 14 days. The judge found him in both civil and criminal contempt after concluding that he knowingly and willfully violated court orders, including repeated failures to appear when required.
So while Haart’s legal war with her former husband may have technically reached a settlement, Scaglia’s legal problems are apparently still very much in production.
The divorce ended. The courtroom did not.
Haart and Scaglia’s split began in 2022, after a marriage that had moved at the speed of a luxury-brand launch. Scaglia, the Italian businessman who bought Elite in 2011, appointed Haart as CEO of the famed modeling agency in 2019. They married later that year, turning their personal and professional partnership into one glossy, highly visible package.
Then everything detonated.
Their breakup triggered years of lawsuits and countersuits over Elite, its affiliated companies and the money moving through the businesses they had built and operated together. Haart, a fashion designer and the star of Netflix’s My Unorthodox Life, alleged that Scaglia moved marital assets after the divorce proceedings had begun. Court papers cited by Page Six say Scaglia transferred the firm without Haart’s permission and “siphon[ed]” assets from the former couple.
That phrase is doing a lot of work, but the surrounding details are even more cinematic. The judge previously found that Scaglia had used company funds to buy Bentleys, Porsches and Van Cleef & Arpels jewelry. Haart had also accused him of shifting assets while their divorce was already underway, something the court described as impermissible during divorce proceedings.
Scaglia’s attorneys have previously denied the allegations. Scaglia and his representatives did not respond to Page Six’s requests for comment.
Meanwhile, Europe was serving yacht season
The timing is what gives this saga its particularly sharp edge. While the New York court was still demanding compliance, Scaglia appeared to be living in Italy and enjoying a distinctly less penitential lifestyle, according to Page Six: yachts, spritzes and shopping for a $342,000 heart-shaped diamond ring with his new wife, Michelle-Marie Heinemann.
It is a striking contrast to the legal picture now laid out in court papers. On one side: a judge’s order for immediate jail time, a no-bail warrant and allegations involving company assets. On the other: luxury boats, European sunshine and an enormous piece of heart-shaped jewelry that sounds less like an engagement accessory than a prop from a very expensive divorce-themed music video.
Neither the lifestyle imagery nor the romantic grand gesture changes the legal issue. The warrant stems from Scaglia’s repeated failure to appear as ordered and from the judge’s findings about his handling of assets during the proceedings. But the optics are almost aggressively on-brand for a story that has always mixed fashion, money, marriage and business into one oversized social spectacle.
Page Six also reported in 2024 that a court had ordered Scaglia jailed for ignoring an order to pay Haart $300,000. The latest ruling adds another chapter to that pattern, with the judge still seeking consequences for what the court described as violations of its orders.
Haart gets Elite. Scaglia gets another legal cliffhanger.
The biggest material outcome of the divorce is now clear: Haart has been awarded 100 percent of Elite World Group and the Tribeca apartment. The court found that Scaglia had already transferred the value of his share of the company “and then some” to himself in the form of cash, sports cars and other assets.
That ruling radically changes the balance of the story. Elite was not just a company attached to the marriage; it was the professional empire around which their public identity was built. Haart became the face of the agency during their relationship, while Scaglia remained its owner and financial power center. Their split therefore became a fight over more than who got the apartment or which account paid which bill. It was a battle over control of a major fashion institution and the narrative of who had built what.
For Haart, the result is a dramatic reversal from the moment their marriage collapsed. She now has the agency, the apartment and a court judgment that, according to Page Six, found Scaglia had already extracted value from the company. For Scaglia, the divorce settlement has not delivered anything resembling a clean exit. He is still facing the judge’s demand for jail time, and Page Six reports that he has yet to submit to US authorities.
The whole thing has the strange afterlife of a reality-TV finale that refuses to end. The marriage is over. The business has been awarded. The glamorous cast members have moved on to new partners and different continents. Yet the legal machinery keeps pulling the camera back into the room.
And that may be the most Julia Haart development imaginable: even after the $90 million divorce is settled, the real finale is still waiting for its final scene.
Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton Just Turned the Eiffel Tower Into Their Personal Soft-Launch Set
A gold dress, a Seine-side kiss and a multi-country F1 vacation have pushed Kim and Lewis from suspiciously cozy to impossible to ignore.
Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton have officially entered the phase of celebrity romance where a relationship can travel through four countries, attend a Celine Dion concert, visit Ferrari headquarters and still somehow be defined by one photograph: the kiss.
During a recent European getaway, Kardashian shared an image of herself grabbing Hamilton’s face and kissing him on a boat in front of the Eiffel Tower. She wore a figure-hugging gold dress; Hamilton wore a black tank, loose trousers, a long jacket, a Kangol hat and enough diamond necklaces to make the Seine feel under-accessorized. It was not exactly a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment. It was a Paris postcard with excellent cheekbones and a very obvious plot.
The Kardashians star also posted a cuddly snap of the pair during their night out, along with images from travels through France, Spain, Italy and England. Hamilton shared his own selection from the trip on Instagram, captioning it, “Bit of this, bit of that.” A caption that casual next to a Parisian face-grab is, frankly, its own kind of comedy.
From hotel sightings to Eiffel Tower kissing
This romance has been building in the most modern celebrity way possible: not with one grand announcement, but with a steady escalation of international sightings, shared spaces and increasingly intimate vacation content.
Kardashian and Hamilton first sparked dating rumors after they were spotted entering a Paris hotel together in early February, according to E! News. Since then, their orbit has expanded from the City of Love to Tokyo and Monaco, where Kardashian attended her first Formula One Grand Prix. She has also been seen fitting into Hamilton’s racing world, including a visit to Ferrari headquarters where she watched him train in his F1 car and snapped a trackside selfie.
That is the key to this pairing’s particular glamour. Kardashian’s public life is usually built around fashion, family, beauty and business; Hamilton’s is built around speed, global travel and the highly choreographed spectacle of Formula One. Their dates are not merely dinners. They are a world tour with better lighting, an aggressively good wardrobe and at least one luxury vehicle nearby.
For months, the two have occupied that deliciously blurry celebrity category: close enough for everyone to notice, quiet enough for the internet to keep refreshing. The Paris kiss changes the temperature. It is still not a formal relationship announcement in the traditional sense, but it is a lot more intimate than a strategically shared dinner or a suspiciously synchronized arrival.
The vacation said more than either caption did
Neither Kardashian nor Hamilton appears to have offered a long statement about the relationship in the vacation posts. They did not need to. The images did the public-relations work with the efficiency of a seasoned Kardashian production meeting.
There is Kardashian in gold, Hamilton in black, the Eiffel Tower behind them and the sort of physical closeness that makes “just friends” sound like a phrase trapped in an old episode recap. Then there is the geography: Paris, Spain, Italy and England, with a Celine Dion show folded into the itinerary and Ferrari headquarters added for professional flavor. The entire trip reads less like a random holiday and more like two people learning how to merge their glamorous, highly mobile lives.
Hamilton’s “Bit of this, bit of that” caption is particularly funny because the “bit” included one of the most recognizable women in the world, a romantic Paris boat ride and a trip through the driver’s professional universe. That is not a bit. That is a soft launch wearing sunglasses and pretending not to know it has been photographed.
Fans had already been connecting the dots since the pair’s earliest sightings. The Paris content simply gave the dots a gold dress, a famous landmark and a kiss. The internet is now treating the relationship as considerably less theoretical, even though neither star has laid out a formal timeline or label in the source’s account.
Kim’s kids have already met the F1 lifestyle
The European trip is not the first time Hamilton has appeared in Kardashian’s family-adjacent world. During the summer, Kardashian shared images from a lake vacation in Idaho with her children—North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm, whom she shares with ex-husband Kanye “Ye” West. She captioned those photos, “Summers at the lake with my favorite people,” while Hamilton posted his own message: “Hold your people close.”
That exchange gave the romance a different texture. A Monaco appearance can be filed under celebrity spectacle. A family trip to Idaho feels more personal, even when it happens through carefully selected vacation images. It suggested Hamilton was not simply a glamorous plus-one for red carpets and race weekends; he was becoming part of the broader rhythm of Kardashian’s life.
And that rhythm is already famously full. Kardashian is raising four children, running SKIMS, appearing on The Kardashians and pursuing her legal studies, all while maintaining the kind of fashion and social schedule that would exhaust a normal calendar. Hamilton, meanwhile, spends much of his year moving through the global F1 circuit. The appeal of their shared itinerary is obvious: neither needs the other to make life busier. They need someone who understands why life is already a permanent airport lounge.
Kim’s dating era has taken another international turn
Kardashian’s post-divorce dating history has unfolded in public, but not always on her terms. Her relationship with Pete Davidson became a major storyline after the pair connected through Saturday Night Live. Later, fans wondered about a possible romance with Tom Brady, though E! reported in 2023 that they were friends and business partners who had no romantic relationship. Kardashian also briefly dated Odell Beckham Jr.; news of their split emerged in 2024.
Hamilton arrives after that run of high-profile speculation and short-lived headlines, bringing his own mythology as one of the most famous athletes on the planet. He is not a reality-TV supporting character or a mystery man glimpsed in the background. He has a global fan base, a signature personal style and an entire international racing calendar that makes the relationship feel naturally cinematic.
It also explains why the couple’s most revealing moments have happened on the move. Kardashian showed up in Monaco. Hamilton appeared in Idaho. Now they are kissing beside the Eiffel Tower and crossing Europe together. The romance, whatever label the two eventually choose, is being told through locations as much as through affection.
Paris has always been useful to celebrities. It can make a dinner look like destiny and a hotel entrance look like a plot twist. But this particular Paris picture has more force because it arrives after months of buildup. Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton may still be keeping their captions breezy, but their vacation album is doing something much louder: turning a rumor-shaped romance into the most glamorous itinerary on the internet.
