Tara’s ex I’ve never heard of Poldark
The ex- boyfriend of Aidan Turner’s new girl doesn’t have a clue who Poldark is.
TV heart-throb Aidan and high- f lying marketing manager Tara Derakshan were pictured kissing passionately in the street last week.
The photos were a blow to the Poldark star’s legions of female fans.
But Tara’s ex Richard Settlewell doesn’t know what the fuss is about.
The Swedish businessman, who runs a dog-sitting website, said: “I don’t even know who Poldark is, or Aidan Turner.
“I’m not from England so I don’t watch these sort of shows.”
Richard, 35, said he and Tara split up several months ago.
Globetrotter Tara, who speaks four languages. moved to the UK last year to become a marketing director for digital advertising platform Kiosked.
She and Aidan were pictured kissing in London.
Swedish-Persian Tara has so far refused to discuss her relationship with the hunk – and she even claimed it wasn’t her in the picture.
When asked about the romance and whether he was single this week, Irishman Aidan replied: “I can’t say that”.
The 33-year- old, who is currently appearing in the second series of BBC1’s Poldark, has been single since his split from Irish actress Sarah Green in November.
They had dated for five years.
