Beaming down at the camera, the stars snuggled up for their photo having graced the Oscars red carpet hours prior, with Paul arriving in a chic white tuxedo and Daisy rocking a shimmering, floor-length mesh gown with a bejewelled collar.

The reactions were as expected, with one person replying to the photo on Twitter: “These two need to do something for the sake of my mental health.”

“I love them so much,” said another.

Paul and Daisy have been friends since they played Connell and Marianne in TV series Normal People.

In 2021 Paul won a BAFTA for his role on the TV show, dedicating the award to Daisy, who he called his ‘best friend.’

He said at the time: "I want to dedicate this to Daisy, who is the best scene partner and one of the best people I know.”

They often refer to each other as ‘friends for life’, cute!
