Back in August 2020, a source told The Sun newspaper’s Bizarre column Paul was ‘smitten’ with Phoebe after a romantic weekend in London.

The insider shared: ‘Paul invited pals and they played wild drinking games. They’re both smitten. His membership on the celeb dating site Raya is a smokescreen to cover up that they’re secretly an item.’
Meanwhile, the Indie rock star told NME magazine in May that she thought Paul was a ‘cute boy’ after becoming a fan of his after watching Normal People.
She went on to follow him on Instagram, with the actor quickly returning the favor.

Paul was reported to have joined Raya May 2020, where he also used Phoebe’s song I Know The End on his profile.
A source said at the time: ‘Paul has become very famous in lockdown and he could have practically any woman he wants at this point.
‘He knows he would be recognised instantly on regular dating apps so has turned to Raya because it’s more exclusive and discreet.
‘He had to be invited onto it by one of his new celebrity pals and then apply before he was allowed to set up an account. But there are lots of beautiful people on there for him.’
