Simone Ashley Reveals Shocking Breakup with Tino Klein Amid New Movie Promotion

Simone Ashley is sharing an update on her love life.

The actress from “Bridgerton” hinted at a recent split with her boyfriend, Constantin “Tino” Klein, whom she had been dating for two years. She discussed her upcoming movie, “Picture This,” while navigating this new phase of her life.

Or in a shorter version:
The Bridgerton actress subtly hinted at a breakup with boyfriend Tino Klein and spoke about her new film amid this fresh chapter.

On the February 28th episode of BBC’s Woman Hour podcast, Simone humorously noted, “It’s quite amusing that I’m advocating for a romantic comedy, and as of January, I’ve embarked on my solo journey.

Instead of being overcome by heartbreak, the actress is choosing to welcome the latest chapter of her life with open arms.

Simone, at age 29, explained that she’s dedicating her time to herself, her work, and building her self-assurance. She remarked that this stage in her life feels like a fresh chapter compared to when the release of ‘Bridgerton’ brought about such chaos.

Three months prior to their breakup, it appeared that the previous pairing attended their last joint public event. They were spotted in London during the unveiling of an art exhibit, which was organized by fashion designer Marco Capaldo, in October.

Back in November 2022, it was Simone who hinted at her romantic involvement for the first time. She mentioned that she and Tino had their initial encounter at the Grand Prix event held in Monaco earlier that same year.

In my own words, I’d express it as follows: “I’m overflowing with joy,” I shared with British Vogue during our chat, opting to keep the details private for now. “We’ve yet to make our relationship official and are thoughtfully discussing when and how we can share this wonderful news with the world before anyone else gets a sneak peek.

At the time, Simone also said she was open to eventually moving in with her then-partner.

“I’d like to,” she teased, “but, you know, one day.”

In March 2023, the former star of Sex Education confirmed their relationship on Instagram by posting a charming picture of her enjoying a laugh with Tino at a BAFTA Awards after-party from a month earlier. She labeled the image as “one of my favorite photos” in the caption.
