Phoebe Bridgers and Bo Burnham fuel dating rumours after shock Paul Mescal 'split'

Phoebe Bridgers and Bo Burnham have reportedly been seen 'flirting' with one another amid growing speculation that they're dating.

The pair, who have been friends since 2021, attended Kate Berlant's one-woman comedy show on Monday and fuelled dating rumours as they sat next to each other in the audience at Connelly Theatre in New York City.

32-year-old Bo, who was directing the show, is said to have given Phoebe his 'undivided and doting attention' after stepping on stage to assist with some technical difficulties.

The speculation comes after 28-year-old Phoebe reportedly split from Normal People actor Paul Mescal, despite rumours that the pair were engaged.

"It felt flirtatious, like he was trying to impress her," a reporter at Jezebel, who attended the show, revealed.

The Mirror has approached Phoebe and Bo's representatives for comment.

Phoebe and Bo's latest outing comes amid reports that they have been seen 'making out, canoodling and cuddling' around Los Angeles.

According to the Deux U podcast, the pair were spotted at The Magic Castle, a The 1975 concert, and a local bar.

Last week, Bo and Phoebe posed for a flirty picture together which showed the singer kissing Matty Healy as Bo stood behind them with his eyes closed.

"Gay Poets Society," The 1975 frontman captioned the Instagram post.

Phoebe and Paul, 26, sparked engagement rumours earlier this year before allegedly calling it quits on their relationship.

Back in April, it was reported by The Sun that Phoebe had referred to Paul as her fiancé as the pair partied at Coachella.

Phoebe was first linked to Paul when she outed herself as a huge fan of the Normal People series that made him a star.

She made her feelings for the Irish actor clear as she referred to Paul as 'the cute boy' in an interview from 2020.

She told NME magazine she got a 'little pitter-patter in my heart' when she realised he was following her on Instagram.

They made their debut as a couple at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and Film Gala in 2021 and went Instagram official weeks later.
