Phoebe Dynevor, the 28-year-old actress, rocked a plunging black mini dress in a sizzling photoshoot that left everyone stunned on Tuesday. She graced the cover of ELLE’s October 2023 issue, delving into her brief romance with Pete Davidson and opening up about the challenges of working in a male-dominated industry. Ahead of her upcoming film “Fair Play,” Phoebe also reflected on the whirlwind success she experienced after her breakout role in “Bridgerton” and how it ignited her passion for projects that spark conversations.
During the interview, Phoebe candidly confessed that she initially underestimated the public’s interest in her relationship with comedian Pete Davidson, who went on to date Kim Kardashian, Emily Ratajkowski, and Chase Sui Wonders after their fling. She admitted she was “naïve” to think no one would care.
Phoebe’s photoshoot accompanying the interview showcased her in a variety of vintage-inspired looks, from a semi-sheer gown with a cape to a sheer taffeta dress. With Old Hollywood glamour oozing from her soft waves and muted pink lipstick, she epitomized timeless elegance.
Discussing her relationship with Pete, Phoebe expressed her astonishment at the intense public scrutiny it received. She remarked, “I was just being a young woman dating, and somehow that sparked a conversation.” She also shared some of the valuable lessons she learned, emphasizing the need to be more cautious about sharing personal details online.
Phoebe, being a woman in the entertainment industry, acknowledged the heightened anxieties that come from constantly being under public scrutiny, especially regarding her romantic relationships.
Her latest film, “Fair Play,” set to release on Netflix on October 6, has exceeded her expectations. Reflecting on her rapid rise to fame after “Bridgerton,” she admitted her naivety, emphasizing that her initial goal was solely to work as an actress without other jobs.
In “Fair Play,” Phoebe plays the leading character, Emily, in the upcoming erotic thriller, and she drew from her years in the entertainment industry to understand the challenges of a woman working in a male-dominated hedge fund firm. She believes that the industry’s extra pressure on women motivates her to work on projects like “Fair Play” and contribute to positive change, even if it’s a small contribution.
Netflix’s description of “Fair Play” hints at a gripping narrative involving a coveted promotion at a ruthless financial firm, a once-supportive relationship between Emily (Phoebe Dynevor) and Luke (Alden Ehrenreich) souring into something sinister as power dynamics shift.
While “Fair Play” marks a new chapter in Phoebe’s career, fans of “Bridgerton” are eagerly awaiting season three, where Lady Whistledown takes the spotlight, focusing on Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) and her long-time crush, Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton). The steamy Regency drama, known for its raunchy romances, is set to captivate audiences once more.
