"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."

Neither Florence Pugh nor Finn Cole confirmed their relationship. However, the internet is flooded with their dating gossip after they were spotted together in multiple places.

Remembering how he enjoyed performing and entertaining others, he further explained:
