English actor Colin Firth was spotted hanging out with US screenwriter Maggie Cohn in London.
As per the Daily Mail, the 61-year-old actor is "dating" Cohn after they fell for each other on the set of their latest series The Staircase.
Sources have disclosed to the outlet that Firth, known for playing Mark Darcy in the Bridget Jones series, has been with Cohn since they met on the project in 2021.
Last week, the duo were photographed together as they enjoyed a lunch date at Grilandia, Firth's local Lebanese eatery, in West London.

Cohn was dressed in a turquoise-checked wool coat and flat black shoes. The two laughed and joked as they walked.
