He’s acquired plenty of fans in his time as a celebrity in London and used to be the hottest ticket around. However, things might be changing as he’s gaining a bit of a bad reputation.

Lainie might just be able to convince him to turn things around and make this actor into an entirely new man all together.
The two of them may seem an unlikely match, but sources have been reporting that the actors have been seen at different places and events. They’re attached at the hip and constantly locking arms. The rumors are swirling, and this surprising new romance has caught everyone’s interest.
But are the two really as in love as they seem to be? Or could this be the case of two actors knowing exactly what they are doing and swaying the public for their own benefit?
