Move over Americans, Hollywood scarlets can't get enough of the British accent.
American stars including Nicola Peltz, Zendaya, Olivia Rodrigo and JoJo Siwa have all found love with a handsome Englishman.
British males are certainly having their spotlight as more and more A-lists bag themselves a English hunk.
Figures on the dating site, Dating Across The Pond, which has been matching Brits to Americans since 2010, show 65 per cent of it's 108,000 members are American women.
Google searches for 'British men' also went up 21 per cent over the past year, proving British men are the next hot topic.
Even Love Island UK winner Toni Laites - who resides in Las Vegas - admitted she has 'no reason to be in America anymore after finding love with Londoner Cach Mercer on the ITV2 show.
But are Englishmen the next best thing? Daily Mail reveals all the American girls who fell victim to the British charm...
Nicola Peltz and Brooklyn Beckham
They have been the talk of the town ever since they said 'I do' for a second time at her family's estate in Westchester County on August 2.
Brooklyn, 26, and Nicola, 30, first tied the knot in a lavish £3million ceremony in 2022.
As the eldest son of former England footballer David, 50, and Spice Girl Victoria, 51, Nicola walked into a very iconic British family.
The pair began dating back in October 2019, went Instagram official a few months later, and by July 2020, Brooklyn had popped the question.
David and Victoria and siblings Romeo, 22, Cruz, 20, and Harper, 14, were all missing from the 200 people guest list at their vow renewal amid their heartbreaking family feud.
His grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles were also absent and only found out about the wedding vow renewal by reading it online.
Brooklyn become increasingly estranged from his family since he snubbed his father's 50th birthday, and now, the family fear it's a final kick in the teeth.
Olivia Rodrigo and Louis Partridge
Olivia and English actor Louis may have reached a major new milestone in their romance after two years of dating.
Strolling hand-in-hand down an Los Angeles sidewalk on Sunday, all eyes were on the massive diamond ring on Rodrigo's engagement finger.
While the singer and her British boyfriend, both only 22, have remained tight-lipped about whether he's popped the question, her dazzling new accessory is said to be the talk of Tinseltown.
It also adds to recent fan speculation that Olivia subtly mentions Louis in her hit 2023 track, 'So American'.
Olivia and Louis first made headlines as a couple when they were spotted together in his hometown, London, in October 2023.
In a October 2024 interview with Elle magazine, Louis playfully dodged questions about whether Olivia's song "So American" was about him.
At the time, he laughed and said, 'Not my song, not my place. So I wouldn't know.'
He did, however, share that Olivia has influenced his music taste, saying, 'My girlfriend has been trying to get me into more pop recently. Chappell Roan has been on repeat.'
Describing his own approach to relationships, Louis said he sees himself as a 'golden retriever' boyfriend type — easygoing and loyal.
'I think in past relationships my mind worked at a different speed to the women I've known,' he explained. 'A bit slower. The way I would characterize it is like a Golden Retriever and a black cat. I can imagine being happy sitting and catching a Frisbee.'
Zendaya and Tom Holland
US superstar Zendaya, 28, has been dating the British actor, 29, since 2021 after meeting on set of the Marvel movie.
Tom and his fiancée Zendaya have become one of Hollywood's most talked-about couples since finding love on set in 2016 while filming Spider-Man: Homecoming.
When they're not appearing at red carpet events and film premieres, they manage to keep a low profile and are often pictured walking their dog Noon together in London.
The couple were forced to delay their wedding, according to her trusted 'image architect' Law Roach.
'The process hasn't even started yet,' the 47-year-old stylist updated E! News.
'Zendaya is working on so many movies. She's now filming the next iteration of Dune, so she's away doing that. It's so many movies, so we have time. We have a lot of time.'
The Challengers producer-star first sparked engagement rumors at the Golden Globe Awards in Beverly Hills on January 6 while rocking a Jessica McCormack-designed diamond sparkler estimated to cost $500K.
The very next day, TMZ reported that Tom had 'got down on one knee' and popped the question 'between Christmas and New Year's Eve' at Zendaya's family home in Oakland, CA: 'It was romantic and not over the top.'
The London-born Englishman told Men's Health at the time: 'When I have kids, you will not see me in movies anymore. [It'll just be] golf and dad. And I will just disappear off the face of the earth.'
JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes
American singer JoJo, 22, and Love Island UK star Chris, 32, met during a stint on Celebrity Big Brother earlier this year and have since been to and from America and London to visit each other.
Chris recently revealed he turned his relationship with JoJo from friendship into romance by putting his feelings down on paper.
The pair became instant friends on Celebrity Big Brother earlier this year and began dating after the final.
Chris told how he went to the US to surprise JoJo for her birthday and wrote down his feelings on a piece of paper in a hotel bar in order to tell her how he really felt.
Speaking to The Sun, he said: 'I was confused about how I felt. Then I wasn't confused anymore. I knew I needed to write it down to explain to her how I was feeling.
'I went to Florida thinking "I really like this person", but I was slightly confused about the feelings. I had already written her birthday card before I flew over. I took all these presents over for her. They were fun and sentimental gifts rather than anything of monetary value.
'But the night before her birthday, I realised my feelings had changed. I told her: "I've got to go do something. I'll be back in half an hour." I went to the hotel reception and borrowed a pen and came back up to the room.'
Chris said he loved JoJo as a friend at first but his feelings began to change towards the end of the series.
Up until her relationship with Chris, JoJo had identified as a lesbian and was in a relationship with Australian influencer Kath Ebbs, although they quickly broke up after she left the Big Brother house.
Gabbriette Bechtel and Matty Healy
The American model-musician, 27, and The 1975 frontman, 36, have been linked since September 2023.
They were first spotted packing on the PDA in New York City, shortly after his well-publicised split from Taylor Swift in June that year.
The couple went on to announce their engagement in June 2024 after a whirlwind nine-month romance, with Gabbriette showing off her black diamond ring on Instagram.
In an interview with British Vogue, Gabby opened up about her relationship with Matty and even hinted about wanting children in the future, gushing: 'I love being in love,' after hanging up the phone to her fiancé.
She added: 'When I thought that I was in love before it was just me being a person of service to somebody else.'
Hinting at how she and Matty first connected, when answering what her advice to anyone still looking for love is, she replied: 'Answer all your DMs and listen to your closest friends.'
'When they like somebody, you should listen to them.'
Ashley Roberts George Rollinson
Pussycat Dolls star Ashley, 43, met her British boyfriend George, 25, in 2023.
The loved-up couple have gone from strength to strength ever since they were first linked.
The singer recently gave an insight into her love life and revealed why she prefers dating Brits over American men.
In an exclusive interview with Daily Mail, Ashley said she feels like an 'adopted Brit' after moving to London from the US in 2012 after her appearance on I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!
She admitted she could never imagine dating a man from the US now because they're 'overwhelming'.
She said: 'Yes, George is British. It's funny because I have been here so long that when I go back to the States, I'm much more aware of the differences…
'American men are, I feel bad saying this, but they're overwhelming, they are too much. I'm like, you need to calm down.
'I think because I grew up in that culture, I didn't necessarily think anything different but now I've lived here for so long and I've dated in the past, many years ago, European men...
'But I don't even imagine myself dating an American guy now. They have a different approach. Even in places like Vegas it's all around you that kind of testosterone.'
Ashley, who's originally from Phoenix, Arizona, says she is thankful to have settled down in Britain and after The Pussycat Dolls went their separate ways in 2010.
