Yes he’s a Gucci ambassador, yes he’s coming to a big screen near you as the incredibly ripped Lucias in Gladiator II, but Paul Mescal? He’s still just a normal person when it comes to how he spends his free time. Well, a normal late-20s hipster who makes most female late-20s hipsters audibly shriek whenever he’s spotted in the wild — which is a lot.
He may be Irish, but having settled in the city in 2020 (a time when he delighted fans with his ritual of running around London parks in his short-shorts) he’s become a bona fide London boy. And he’s proved he has pretty good taste when it comes to his favourite haunts, from dive pubs to members’ clubs. He’s also been spotted at Michelin-star BRAT — in fact, on the same weekend as he attended the Glastonbury Charli XCX set... It seems he took those calls for a Brat summer literally.
