A rough-around-the-edges seaside town that is also home to small plates restaurants and natty wine bars. It’s all enough to make London hipsters go weak at the knees, so no wonder there’s been an exodus from Hackney to Margate. And in hot pursuit of the hipsters come the celebs.
Well placed sources tell us actor Emma Corrin has just bought a house there. Corrin went to Margate Pride this summer, and was spotted sharing lunch and a kiss with boyfriend Rami Malek at Buoy and Oyster, a seafood bar in town. This week the couple seemed in high spirits at a B&Q in Kent, where they bought some indoor plants for the new gaff.
