Paul Mescal plants a kiss on Gracie Abrams in sweet selfie from Oscars night as their reaction to Jessie Buckley’s Best Actress win goes viral

by

I was so thrilled to see Paul Mescal and Gracie Abrams together at the Oscars! They shared the cutest selfie on Instagram – Paul even gave Gracie a sweet kiss on the head. It totally made my day seeing them together!

The 26-year-old singer shared a photo with her 30-year-old actor boyfriend on social media before the Oscars. The couple became a trending topic after their enthusiastic reaction to Jessie Beckley winning Best Actress.

The couple, together since 2024 and usually private about their romance, appeared deeply in love while preparing for the Academy Awards.

Gracie beamed as she took a selfie with Paul, who kissed her cheek, while they were in a hallway.

The singer, known for her song ‘Risk’, looked stunning in a sparkly black crop top and low-rise skirt while enjoying a drink before heading to the Dolby Theatre.

Irish actor Paul looked sharp in a white shirt, smart trousers, and a black tie.

At the glamorous awards show, Gracie finished her outfit with a delicate neck scarf, and Paul wore a black blazer as they walked the red carpet.

Paul and Gracie were sitting behind Jessie, his Hamnet co-star, when she won the Best Actress award. A funny video of their reaction to her win quickly became popular online.

Oh my gosh, you guys, it was EVERYTHING! Gracie was absolutely glowing, seriously beaming! And Paul… poor Paul just covered his face with his hands. But Jessie? Jessie was a MESS, totally sobbing right in front of them both. It was such a powerful moment, I can’t even!

The singer captioned the photos: ‘Love love love’. 

Oh my gosh, you will NOT believe what I saw! They went to the Vanity Fair Oscar party, and Paul… well, Paul couldn’t help but sneak a peek at Gracie’s cleavage while they were walking the red carpet! It was so quick, but I definitely saw it! I have pictures, obviously. It was… a moment.

Mark Guiducci hosted the event at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, where the couple shared an affectionate moment on the red carpet.

Gracie looked stunning in a heavily beaded gown with a low-cut neckline, and it immediately caught Paul’s attention as they posed for pictures.

I was completely mesmerized by her outfit – she looked absolutely stunning, and those stiletto heels were the perfect finishing touch! And Paul? He was incredibly handsome in his white tuxedo with that sharp black shirt. They both looked amazing!

Paul and Gracie have seemingly become more serious, with the singer relocating to London to be closer to the Gladiator actor.

Gracie Abrams, daughter of director J.J. Abrams, has moved to London to be with her boyfriend, Paul, who is filming a movie about The Beatles there.

Gracie reportedly moved to the UK late last year and is now based in London, where she’s working on new music, according to The Sun.

Friends say the couple seems genuinely in love, calling them ‘the real deal.’ It’s even rumored that Gracie visited Ireland to meet Paul’s family.

According to a source, Gracie has been enjoying her time exploring the city, and she even took a trip to Ireland. She’s very happy here and intends to stay for the foreseeable future.

‘They seem very settled and serious.’

The Daily Mail has contacted representatives for Gracie and Paul for comment.

The couple finally appeared together as a pair on the red carpet at the 2026 BAFTA Film Awards in London on Sunday evening.

The glamorous awards show saw the famous couple share a very public and affectionate display of their relationship.

However, some people think their public displays of affection might have been for show. Gracie has even been criticized for seemingly copying Kylie Jenner’s approach to publicly announcing a relationship.

Okay, so I was watching the red carpet arrivals, and it was SO sweet! Songwriter Gracie gave Paul the cutest little kiss on the cheek while they were posing for pictures, and then they just gazed into each other’s eyes – total couple goals, honestly. It was a really tender and loving moment, and you could just feel the connection between them.

Oh my goodness, you guys, it was EVERYTHING! After “Hamnet” won Outstanding British Film, they – they – actually kissed! Right there in the auditorium! It was so sweet and genuine, I nearly died. Seriously, a real, intimate kiss! I was screaming internally, I swear!

This public display of affection is a big change for the couple, who have been dating since 2024 but have generally kept their relationship private – until recently.

Paul revealed in a recent interview his plans to ‘slow down’ his career to prioritise loved ones.

Looking back on his 30th birthday, he shared with British GQ that he’s appreciated the pace he’s been working at for the last seven years, ever since he was 23.

I’m starting to prioritize things that really matter to me, like spending quality time with my family, partner, and friends, and I’m consciously making time for those things.

The actor, who usually keeps his relationship with singer Gracie private, explained that he’s always prioritized work. However, he’s now starting to want a life outside of rehearsals and film sets.

Paul recently shared that he’s prioritizing his relationships, following a previous conversation with Rolling Stone where he expressed his desire to become a father someday.

He mentioned wanting a family someday, but wasn’t in a rush. He said he’d love to have children, but didn’t need it to happen immediately.
