Aimee Lou Wood and Adam Long were seen enjoying a cozy coffee date in London, sparking rumors of a new romance between the two actors. The pair, who are set to star together in the upcoming BBC series “Film Club,” demonstrated their close bond as they embraced and kissed outside a cafe.
Wood, 31, showcased her chic style in a denim waistcoat paired with wide-legged jeans and red ballet pumps, while Long, 34, opted for a casual look with a Levi’s T-shirt, shorts, and trainers. Though the couple has not publicly addressed their relationship status, their affectionate demeanor suggests they are enjoying each other’s company.
The duo first connected while working on “Film Club,” a project that Wood created alongside Ralph Davies. The series centers on Evie (played by Wood), who establishes a film club with her best friend Noa. The storyline involves navigating friendship, love, and family dynamics as Evie confronts her emotions amid the eccentricities of her home life.
In a statement about the show, Wood expressed excitement about bringing the series to life with a talented cast, including actress Suranne Jones. “Film Club” is set to air later this year on BBC iPlayer and BBC Three, following extensive filming in Manchester.
Prior to her rumored relationship with Long, Wood was in a two-year relationship with her “Sex Education” co-star Connor Swindells, from which she amicably parted ways in 2020.
Adding to her recent headlines, Wood also addressed criticism regarding a “Saturday Night Live” parody that made fun of her character’s appearance. She received a wave of support from fans after speaking out against the sketch, emphasizing the need for clever and respectful humor.
Both actors are on the rise in their careers, with Wood gaining international fame from her role in the HBO hit “The White Lotus” and Long drawing attention for his memorable performance as a convict in the BAFTA-winning series “Happy Valley.”
The warmth displayed by Wood and Long during their outing offers a glimpse into their budding relationship, leading fans to hope for a continuing love story both on and off the screen.
