The 31 year old was spotted cuddling up with his real life girlfriend Emily Brown over the weekend. Mail Online reports that Emily is a writer and part-time footballer who plays for FBB Warriors in London. Regé-Jean and Emily share a house together in north London and have been seeing each other for a while. The two were reportedly "saying goodbye as the telly star headed to a chauffeur-driven car on his way to the airport for a flight to New York." Regé-Jean is heading over stateside to start working on a new project. The star has made a name for himself thanks to his role as Simon Basset, the Duke of Hastings in Netflix's period drama. He has also since been tipped to star as the next James Bond. Series director, Julie Anne Robinson spoke with Deadline about the 007 rumours: "It's interesting about Regé, I hope he is not offended by this but I never saw him as a sex symbol," she said. "I always saw him as a serious actor, very committed, a caring professional." "And now look at him, I mean goodness me. It's incredible, I hope he is the next James Bond."
