Netflix's hit political drama The Diplomat is in large part a show about the complicated marriage between Kate and Hal Wyler, but that doesn't mean our heroine Kate (played by Keri Russell) has no other love interests. For the show's first two seasons, the U.S. Ambassador to the U.K. had a simmering flirtation with the British Foreign Secretary. In season 3, which premiered on October 16, a newly-separated Kate finally gets to explore a romance with a Brit...but it's not Dennison.
Enter Callum Ellis, an enigmatic new hottie played by Irish actor Aidan Turner. Introduced as a British bird-watcher, it soon becomes clear that Callum is a spy and negotiator whose relationship with Kate goes beyond professional. Though the season 3 finale leaves Kate's romantic prospects up in the air, episode 7 makes it clear that Hal has some serious competition for Kate's heart.
