Is Daisy Ridley Secretly Engaged to Tom Bateman?
“Murder on the Orient Express” co-stars Daisy Ridley, 27, and Tom Bateman, 30, are sparking engagement rumors.
On Wednesday, Ridley was all dolled up for her “Good Morning America” appearance in NYC, where she was spotted wearing a ring on that finger.
The day before, Daisy was seen wearing the same ring while out and about in the Big Apple.
Daisy publicly wore the ring for the first time at a “Star Wars” celebration, speaking at a “The Rise of Skywalker” panel in Chicago.
To fuel more rumors, a source told The Sun, “Tom introduced Daisy to staff at a Chicago hairdresser's as his fiancée. They were kissing and cuddling and it looked as though she had a ring on her finger."
They reportedly moved in together in February, sharing a home in London's Primrose Hill neighborhood.
In 2017, Daisy and Tom met while working on “Murder on the Orient Express.”
They have remained tight-lipped on their romance, she even deleted her Instagram. She explained why she doesn't like to overshare about her personal life on social media, telling Glamour, “It's not good for me, personally. I'm just not equipped for it. I'm super sensitive — not too sensitive — but I really feel things. Also, there is also a sense that I'm asked who I'm dating a lot more than John [Boyega] is. I don't answer, because I have things in my life that are private.”
According to Vogue, Daisy's “Star Wars” co-star Carrie Fisher also told her that it'll be hard to date once she's part of the franchise since “you don't want to give people the ability to say, 'I had sex with Princess Leia.'”
