However, their romance came to a screeching halt in August 2021. Per The Sun, it appears that busy schedules and distance got in the way of the relationship going the distance.

“Their mates think they make a great couple, but the distance has made it completely unworkable," sources told the outlet. "They had fun and will remain close, but unless something drastic changes, their relationship won’t recover. It was wild while it lasted, and they both really care for each other, but the distance has put a strain on them.”

Did Phoebe Dynevor ever date her 'Bridgerton' co-star?

It's not uncommon for co-stars to develop real-life romances after working together on a project. With steamy scenes and a passionate romance between Daphne and the Duke of Hastings, Bridgerton fans wondered if Phoebe and Regé-Jean were dating IRL.

In an interview with Access in January 2021, the actors played coy when asked about an off-screen romance. "I think everything you need to know is on camera. That's why we presented it so beautifully for you," Regé-Jean said. "All the sparks that flew off of the beautiful scripts that we were handed, and so I think that the sparky scripted material is more than enough."

Additionally, Phoebe credited the actors' on-screen chemistry to rehearsing for weeks. "We did a lot of rehearsing. I think the thing that actually really helped the chemistry was all the dance rehearsals, because we just spent so much time with our choreographer ... And we just got time to play and sort of form a connection. I think that was so beneficial actually in getting the chemistry right," she told Harper's Bazaar in January 2021.

The British star continued, "And then, we have an intimacy coordinator ... So, we blocked and rehearsed all the intimacy scenes weeks and weeks before we started to do things. By the time we got to set, we knew what we were doing. We felt really comfortable. We knew each other, we'd already formed that relationship. We were very lucky to have all that time."
