Who Is Jodie Comer’s Boyfriend, James Burke?
You probably recognize Jodie Comer as Villanelle from Killing Eve. However, the 27-year-old actress has been making headlines as of late after being spotted out in public with her new beau, James Burke.
So, who is Jodie Comer’s boyfriend? And how did they meet? Keep reading for all the deets.
1. Who is Jodie Comer’s boyfriend?
Burke is an American lacrosse player. He grew up in Duxbury, Massachusetts, and obtained a bachelor’s degree at Penn State University. After graduation, he pursued a career as a professional athlete. Many believe he’s currently self-isolating with the Killing Eve star in England.
2. How did they meet?
The pair reportedly met in Boston, though no further details about the meet-cute have been publicly released. Romance rumors first started swirling a few months ago when a fan stumbled upon photos of the couple on social media. Although they’ve since been deleted, news outlets had already identified Burke as Comer’s mystery man.
Since then, Comer and Burke have been spotted together on multiple occasions. A few months ago, they took a trip across the pond to the actress’s hometown of Liverpool, where he likely met the parents.
3. Are they engaged?
Not yet (at least to our knowledge). The Emmy Award winner opened up about her relationship with Burke earlier this year, but at the time, she hadn’t publicly revealed his name.
“I’m very much in it…I think love’s the best,” she told Vogue. “I’d been single for a while and just kind of going with the flow and doing my thing. That’s the thing, isn’t it? When you’re relaxed and letting the universe do what it’s doing, things kind of fall into place. Which is very much what happened. Which is great.”
4. Are they active on social media
Not anymore. Comer revealed that she “quit” social media after she found herself “seeking out negative comments” that people had written about her. Burke also deleted his Instagram account shortly after romance rumors started circulating. Super stealth.
