Accept it: Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar-Jones are secret soulmates and here’s the proof

Is everyone else okay right now? Because I’m certainly not okay. Last night, Daisy Edgar-Jones posted a selfie of her and Paul Mescal looking very cosy with the caption: “We’ve got some news to share!!! Watch this space”. I literally cannot function until I know what their news is.

Given how cosy they are in the pic and the red heart in the caption as well as all the rumours over the last few years, a lot of people are convinced they’re announcing their relationship. But others believe we must be getting a spin-off or season two of Normal People because Element Pictures who were responsible for recording Normal People also posted the same picture on their Insta story. So WHAT’S IT GONNA BE???

Although they’ve never officially been together, a lot of people have never recovered from them both in Normal People in 2020. Since then, both Paul and Daisy have been rumoured to be with different people. Obviously, Paul dated singer Phoebe Bridgers whom he broke up with last year after rumours about her and singer Bo Burnham. And more recently, there have been rumours about Daisy Edgar-Jones being in a relationship with photographer Ben Seed who previously dated Anya Taylor-Joy.

But I won’t rest hoping they announce they’re actually together, so here are all the signs that Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar-Jones are actually soulmates:

THIS whole red carpet moment

This whole thing really is my Roman Empire. But if your heart hasn’t already been broken by this culture-changing moment, basically Paul Mescal was still with Phoebe Bridgers at the time and they were seen together at the red carpet for the Met Gala last year. A photo was taken with Phoebe looking lovingly at Paul and him looking in another direction. Then across the red carpet Daisy was also getting her photo taken alone and Paul can be seen just staring at her. I literally can’t handle this.

This video of them singing to each other

A few months ago, this video of them both at the Gucci after party singing to each other was released. But they’re not just singing any old song whilst holding each other, they’re literally singing Dancing on my Own by Robyn which has the lyrics “I’m in the corner, watching you kiss her”. I am upset.

Their moons are aligned

You’ve probably seen this moon trend all over your TikTok recently which compares the moon on the dates that two people were born to see how compatible you are and just LOOK at Paul and Daisy’s. Paul is also an Aquarius and Daisy a Gemini which are known to be compatible star signs. It’s written in the stars!

The adorable pics of Daisy all over Paul’s Insta

So besides posting all the sad girl music he’s listening to on Spotify on his Insta story, Paul is quite into photography and posts a lot of pictures of his friends including Daisy. But no man takes a picture of a woman like he does if they’re just friends. ESPECIALLY with the caption just “Daisy.” And there are literally SO many of them. I feel sick!

When they dressed up as Fleabag and the Hot Priest

I think about the Normal People and Fleabag cinematic universe most days. Especially when Paul and Daisy dressed up as Fleabag and The Hot Priest for Halloween. Like, this is possibly the most coupley costume you could get. Also, Paul was still with Phoebe Bridgers at the time and everyone is saying that Daisy is wearing her jumpsuit for the costume here? Insanity.

Just them in Normal People

I don’t care the amount of times you tell me it’s acting I simply won’t believe you. When he said the line: “I’m not a religious person but I do sometimes think God made you for me” he was saying it to Daisy and I simply refuse to believe otherwise. But honestly, I don’t blame them I don’t think I’d be able to film possibly most heart-wrenching TV series ever and not fall in love with the person I was acting with. I simply do not want to hear about either of them getting with anyone else because they simply belong together.
