Paul Mescal and Gracie Abrams are a fairly low-key couple. They’ve reportedly been dating for around 18 months, and have served pastries and chilled white wine at festival venues and tours in east London parks more times than they’ve walked red carpets – the latter number as of today.
Mescal and Abrams were spotted attending a screening of the film last night (February 18) running man At the Ham Yard Hotel in London. The actor and singer both wore the same casual, laid-back look: Mescal opted for a gray wool coat with wide lapels, a navy and blue graphic knit sweater, black jeans, black Adidas Superstar sneakers, and a navy baseball cap emblazoned with a red “B.” Meanwhile, Abrams chose a black peacoat from The Row with a pale pink rosette on the lapel, paired with dark indigo jeans and black leather shoes from Casey Casey. She also wore a cream hat with pink embroidery and a gray brim by British designer Aaron Esh.

Gracie Abrams and Paul Mescal’s red carpet moment has been a long time coming, and the very low-key event meant they were able to pull off the moment fans have been waiting for with minimal publicity. Back in the summer, the pair appeared separately on the Cannes Film Festival carpet. Abrams is there to support mezcal history of sound. We also briefly caught a glimpse of them emerging from a car at the 2026 Golden Globes afterparty, wearing stylish monochrome ensembles. But the super-casual looks they paired tonight would also fit in with any of their other sightings in the wild (at Glastonbury, on the aforementioned Hackney Green), where Paul can be found wearing Gaelic shorts and a simple knit, while Gracie favors baggy jeans and 2K throwbacks.
