'They are both putting everything into their careers but have found something special between them.'
Our sister column Biz revealed in September that Flo and Peaky Blinder Finn were secretly dating after they attended an after-party in East London.
Florence confirmed in April that she was in love, with the actress telling Harper's Bazaar mag that she was approaching her romance from a new perspective.
She said: 'I'm more sympathetic to the people who are in love with me, because it's not easy. I'm tricky – I'm always busy, I can never make dates.
'But it's not good enough for me to ask someone to just accept that. I'll just end up alone. I don't want that, I want a family.'
She added: 'I've worked back-to-back since I started, and I've missed so much.
'I've now come to terms with things that I don't like about myself and want to change.
'I don't want to have things just happen to me any more.'
Florence split from photographer Charlie Gooch in 2023 after a year of dating.
Before that, she was linked to Harry Styles and the pair shared a kiss while shooting 2022 film Don't Worry Darling in America.

"She pours her heart, vision & magic touch into every detail, and today, we raise a glass to her! Happy birthday to our founder." Mum-of-two Meghan sent out a newsletter last week revealed her Napa Valley Rosé was crowned "The IT drink for summer". She added: "We are pleased to share that our 2024 Napa Valley Rosé will be available for purchase next week." Advertisement It comes after it was revealed the brand's new Rosé will set back punters $30 a bottle and Meghan also plans to bring out a sparkling wine. The 2023 Napa Valley Rosé is on sale via a new wine section on Meg's As Ever website. The Rosé costs $30 (£21) a bottle, or in packs of three for $90 (£65), a half case for $159 (£115) and full case for $300 (£218). It is being flogged on new website - where more booze will be added. Advertisement Meghan is set to reveal a sparkling wine among new wine varieties. But the Rosé is described by As Ever as "a pale blush wine offers a roundness and depth of flavor that is complemented by gentle minerality and soft notes of stone fruit with a lasting finish". REAL motive behind Harry & Meghan's 'peace talks' REVEALED - but it's a confused plan that won't work They claim the tipple is an "As ever blend" which includes "Cabernet Sauvignon, Mourvèdre, Grenache, and Syrah varietals". The taste is described as "sophisticated, dry, and refreshing, it is designed for summer's best moments – from lunches that turn into dinners and sun-drenched weekends where the only thing louder than the music is the laughter". Advertisement "This blend captures the essence of celebration, inviting wine lovers to toast all the moments that matter most - both big and small." When Meghan first announced her As Ever brand, it was embroiled in row after row over the trademark and logo. For her first few items, the website sold a range of products from £11 jars of jam to £22 limited edition honey. Within half-an-hour the range was out of stock, prompting Meghan to post on Instagram: "Our shelves may be empty, but my heart is full!" Advertisement Fans snapped up the £11 raspberry preserve, which is marketed as a "luscious fruit-forward spread" in "elegant keepsake packaging". Meghan sent her jams to a number of celebrities who shared unboxing videos, including Kris Jenner and Zoe Saldaña. She then decided to "just pause" restocking her As Ever brand after previously selling out in under an hour. 5 The couple with their children Archie and Lilibet in the Netflix show Credit: Netflix

Ellie, who wowed in a white crochet dress, wrote: "My most confident yes." And now the identity of Ellie's beau has been revealed as basketball player Devon Daniels. A source told The Sun: '"I realised I follow him on Instagram, his name is Devon Daniels and he's a basketball player.' On further investigation, looking at both Ellie and the Chicagoan sport's stars' online photos, you can see images of the basketball player's forearm tattoos match those of her mystery beau posted on Instagram. The source continued: 'What happened was on Saturday it came up on my new Instagram on my explore page that these two people had got engaged and I definitely recognised him. 'I recognised her too because he'd posted some photos of her on his story but at the time I just thought she was a regular person. I didn't know she'd been on Love Island as I've never watched. 'But I saw it said 'mystery person' but I know it's him. He'd posted her on his story before." Ellie and her representative have been contacted for comment, but have not yet responded. Love Island star looks very different five years after appearing in the villa Devon can be found posting his basketball achievements to his 10,000 Instagram followers. The sports personality looked relieved as soon as Ellie accepted his proposal, and they shared a tender cuddle. They celebrated by tucking into a huge sharing platter at the back of the boat and had glasses of fizz. Her friends and followers were delighted, with close pal Kaz Crossley writing: "Still crying. She's a FIANCÉE. soooo beautiful love you so much." Love Island's Yewande Biala said: "So happy for you beauty, congratulations." Tommy Fury's ex Millie Roberts shared: "So so so happy for u angel." Towie and Geordie Shore star Sophie Kasaei said: "I'm screaming from the rooftops!!!! My little ell I'm so happy for you !!! Congratulations." Ellie, who starred in the 2018 series of Love Island, went public with her man last January as they puckered up during a windswept outing to the seaside. Since her time on series four of the ITV2 reality show, Ellie hasn't had the best of luck when it comes to romance. In the villa, she fell for London socialite Charlie Brake. The couple continued with their relationship on the outside, before he reportedly dumped her on Instagram while she was sat in the cinema with her pal Laura Anderson. Ellie went on to enjoy a relationship with fellow Love Island alumni Michael Griffiths, who starred in the 2019 series. The pair hit it off after they filmed Ex On The Beach together but their romance was rocky. Days after Michael said Ellie was The One, the couple split. They briefly rekindled their romance, but it wasn't to be and they broke up for good. Then, in 2021, Ellie found herself in the headlines thanks to a night out with England footballer Jack Grealish. The pair were seen chatting together at a party before hitting the clubs in Manchester. But it was all innocent, with Jack's childhood sweetheart Sasha Attwood confirming days later that they were still very much together.
