Beauty & Beast Star Luke Evans Met New Beau In Australia, Shirtless Photos Go Viral
Luke Evan is not one to shy away from some PDA with his rumoured new boyfriend Spanish graphic designer and project manager Fran Tomas.
The 43-year-old star of Beauty and the Beast and Tomas have reportedly been dating for a year, after they met in Australia in 2021. Evans was in Australia that year, filming the series Nine Perfect Strangers with Nicole Kidman.
“The couple have been going from strength to strength and quietly travelling all over the world together… They are like minded, really get each other’s sense of humour and compliment each other well,” a friend of the couple told The Sun.
Couple Share Photos On Instagram
In recent months they went on a skiing holiday with friends Phillip Schofield and Kelly Hoppen to France.
Last week, paparazzi snapped the pair, dressed in nothing but speedos in Ibiza. Though Evans has not publicly confirmed the relationship, the couple have shared photos with each other as well as with their friends on social media.

The couple swam in the sea, and cozied up to each other on the beach, not afraid of a very public PDA, as the paparazzi clicked away.

Evans had earlier said that he would like to be a father. “I thought about it many times and as I get older I’m thinking maybe I should get on and do it. I don’t want to be an old dad . . . but I would like to be a dad,” he had said.

Evans had spent four and a half months in Byron Bay in 2021, during the filming of Nine Perfect Strangers. He told Kyle and Jackie O that he had enjoyed his time and “would move to Australia tomorrow”, admitting that he had “shed a tear” on the plane home.
He told British comedian Alan Carr on his podcast that he had struggled to sleep for a few weeks during his time in Byron Bay thinking about spiders and other dangerous reptiles he had heard about. His housekeeper thought he was being over dramatic, Evans said.

“At night for the first three weeks I couldn’t sleep there’d be every animal, every noise, scratching everything. I did see a huntsman one day, the size of my face, and as you walk towards it, they sort of bend back ready to pounce on you, so you know to walk away, and they go so fast,” Evans had said.
