Simone confirmed her relationship with her boyfriend Tino Klein at the beginning of the year.

The actress took to Instagram on Tuesday to share the first romantic photo with him as they got cozy together.

She previously posted solo photos of him on her social media and with groups of friends as they celebrated his birthday just after Christmas.

Simone is best known for her roles as Kate Sharma in the second season of Bridgerton and Olivia Hanan in Sex Education.

In the photo, taken at Netflix’s annual BAFTA Awards after-party at Chiltern Firehouse earlier this month, she looked glamorous in a silver cut-out dress as she blew her boyfriend a kiss.

She looked happier than ever as Tino beamed at her during the romantic moment.

It is unclear how long Simone and Tino have been together, but it is reported that they met at the F1 race in Monaco.

He is CEO of the GP Ice Race, a new winter event in Austria.

During the Netflix event, they also posed for snaps together while packing on the PDA.

Last year, the Mail on Sunday revealed that Simone’s first serious relationship was with coffee brand manager Luke Richardson, who is thirteen years her senior.

The couple met in an East London cafe where he worked as a barista and soon moved in together.

They then moved to Los Angeles while Miss Ashley continued her fledgling film career. However, their two-year relationship ended when Grimsby-born Mr Richardson – formerly drummer for indie rock band The Draytones, who once toured with Paul Weller – decided to leave California. .

Simone has previously spoken about how playing feisty aristocrat Kate Sharma in the Netflix period drama Bridgerton helped her mental health after a break-up.

The Surrey-born actress, who has 2.8 million Instagram followers, said: “In 2019 to 2020, just before Bridgerton, I went through a breakup and I wasn’t looking after myself. ‘I was so hard on myself.’

It is unclear whether she described her anger over her breakup with Mr. Richardson, which supposedly took place in 2017, or her divorce from her eventual partner.

A friend of Mr. Richardson’s family said: “Everything was great for a few years.” We really thought they were on their way to getting married and having kids.

‘It was a serious relationship.’

The source said Miss Ashley quickly became “like family” but added: “The closer they seemed, the more Luke got cold feet.”

“In the end it came down to him not wanting to stay in LA. They did long distance for a while, but it didn’t really work.”

Mr. Richardson’s mother Margaret confirmed the romance, saying: ‘Simone has just started. She was a lovely girl. She came to our house.

“But I just think her career started – she had to go to America, so it was just one of those things. It wasn’t the right time for either of them.’

After the split, almost all social media posts linking to the couple were deleted.

She shows off one of the few remaining examples at a wedding in Ireland in 2017, while Miss Ashley was also pictured with an ice cream.

Referring to Mr Richardson, who worked for coffee brand Arabica in Bali, the caption read: “Luke got my sprinkles.”

The MoS contacted Ms Ashley’s team at the time for comment.

Last November, Simone reflected on being a dark-skinned actress and how it affected her entry into the acting industry.

The beauty said that being Indian was “limiting” and that she had to wait longer for her break than her white peers.

Speaking in the December issue of British Vogue, Simone said she is proud of her skin tone and doesn’t want it to ever get in the way.

Last year, the Mail on Sunday revealed that Simone’s first serious relationship was with coffee brand manager Luke Richardson, who is 13 years her senior.

Reflecting on her entry into the profession, she told the publication: “I didn’t have the traditional entry into this industry that a lot of my white colleagues had, which was as a stage actress, and I always found it a bit isolating. found.”

“But I don’t want the color of my skin to ever hold me back.”

Simone went on to address the possibility that her skin color limited her options, saying: “I’m sure it was a limitation.

“It took me longer than other young actors who may not have the same limitations.” But I never gave in to it.

She added: “I remember being told certain things as a child that made you really aware of the color of your skin.

“I remember watching Fair & Lovely [lightening] Cream – it smelled so good, like baby powder, but I didn’t understand what it was. Now I think: “Wow. It’s messed up.”

“But I love the color of my skin. I always have.’

Simone also recalled her time at school, saying her ethnicity caused her to stand out and be bullied.

She explained: “I went to a predominantly white girls’ school. I didn’t belong, there was bullying and I wished for my life.”

“I said to myself, ‘You leave this place, you find your people and do what you want.’

Simone left home at a young age to take up acting, which she says was the “best thing” because it gave her a bigger voice as a woman.

She recalls: “Looking back, I think the best thing I could have ever done was to leave home at such a young age.

“I’m so proud of my culture, but if I’m being completely honest, I grew up in a culture where men had more of a say than women.”

“I always resisted it. “I wanted to get my driver’s license, I wanted to play sports, I wanted to wear what I wanted.”

Simone became a household name last year when she played Kate, the Viscount’s lover, in the second season of Bridgerton.

Simone became a household name this year when she played Kate, the Viscount’s lover, in the second season of Bridgerton.

She teased how her character will settle into the role of Viscountess after she marries Anthony Bridgerton in the upcoming third season.

She said: “Even if they come across as fierce, such people are sometimes the softest inside.” They develop this skin because they are vulnerable.

“You can see her insecurities and fears. She’s nervous as hell and I think it gives her strength to admit that.”

After being cast in Bridgerton, Simone started her own production company, the name of which is still unknown.

She said she was inspired to create it to create more equality and “take the wheel.”

She explained: “The more you work in this industry, the more you see the gaps and what shouldn’t happen. I want to create sets where everyone feels equal. And I don’t want to be put in a certain box. “I want to sit behind the wheel myself.”
