AND MARTIN McDONAGH

PHOEBE WALLER-BRIDGE

Fleabag writer and star Phoebe WallerBridge and he r partner Martin McDonagh sparked engagement rumours late last year after the actress was spotted wearing a giant sparkler on her ring finger.

Stepping out to attend her brother Jasper’s wedding to Downton Abbey star Michelle Dockery, Phoebe turned heads in a hot pink Etro suit and a chic straw hat. Although her outfit delighted many, it was her glimmering accessory that set tongues wagging.

Phoebe, 38, and playwright and film-maker Martin, 53, began dating in late 2017, making their first public appearance together in October that year.

Although they have not confirmed reports of their engagement, Phoebe opened up about their relationship in a rare interview with

Vanity Fair, revealing that the pair don’t swap notes on their work until it’s finished.

“We don’t really share anything beforehand,” she said, explaining that it has “a bit” to do with the fact that any criticism might be demoralising.

“And also, I just really, really fancy him,” she said.“So if you show someone something, and you fancy them, it can become this blur.”

The multi-award-winning screenwriter added: “It’s really useful being with someone who I think is a genius – it just ups your game. I would always have wanted Martin McDonagh to think of my work as good, whether I was with him or not.”

Before finding love with the British-Irish write r, Phoebe was married to author and broadcaster Conor Woodman.

The pair, who met in 2012, split in December 2017 after three years of marriage.
