Gracie Abrams and Paul Mescal have reportedly taken a huge step in their relationship, with the singer moving to London to be with the Gladiator star.
The Close To You hitmaker, 26, and Irish actor, 30, have been romantically linked since 2024.
Now it has been reported that Gracie, the daughter of filmmaker J.J. Abrams, has taken the leap and relocated to London to be with Paul – who is there while he films the Beatles movies.
Gracie is said to have moved to the UK at the end of last year, with a source telling The Sun she is spending her time in London writing and recording new music.
The couple are reportedly described as ‘the real deal’ by pals – and Gracie is even said to have travelled to Ireland where Paul’s family live.
‘Gracie has loved exploring the city and even popped over to Ireland too,’ the source said. ‘She plans to remain here for a while because of how happy she is.

‘They seem very settled and serious.’
The Daily Mail has contacted representatives for Gracie and Paul for comment.
The couple made their highly anticipated red carpet debut as a couple at the 2026 BAFTA Film Awards in London on Sunday night.
The star-studded ceremony became the stage for a defining relationship moment, with the A-list couple putting on a PDA-packed display.
Yet it’s been suggested that some of their smitten moments may have been performative, with Gracie accused of ‘taking tips from Kylie Jenner‘s playbook’ when it comes to hard launching her romance.
While posing for snaps on the red carpet, songwriter Gracie planted a tender kiss on Paul’s cheek before they looked lovingly into each other’s eyes.
They also shared an intimate smooch inside the auditorium as the pair celebrated Hamnet winning Outstanding British Film.
Their loved-up display marks a major shift for the private couple, who have been linked since 2024 but are relatively private – until now.
Paul revealed in a recent interview his plans to ‘slow down’ his career to prioritise loved ones.

Could London be the city where Gracie Abrams and Paul Mescal’s relationship truly blossoms?

Reflecting on turning 30, he told British GQ: ‘I really enjoyed the rhythm I’ve been working at. I think that process began when I was 23 and I’m now turning 30.
‘I can feel myself wanting to slow down a bit more and certain priorities come in where I spend my time, whether that’s with my family or with my partner or with friends.’
The actor, who rarely discusses his romance with singer Gracie, continued: ‘I’ve never had a desire to really spend my time anywhere else other than work up until this point… And now I do have a desire to not spend my time necessarily in a rehearsal room or on set.’
Paul’s revelation that he wants to spend more time on his relationships comes after he told Rolling Stone last autumn that he has hopes of one day being a dad.
‘I would love to have a family,’ he said at the time. ‘I’m not like, “I want them tomorrow,” but I would love to have kids.’
