One Day actor Leo Woodall âdoesnât really get Tube any moreâ after fan remark
The British actor stars as Renee Zellwegerâ??s love interest in upcoming romantic comedy Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy.
One Day actor Leo Woodall says he has largely given up taking London public transport after an âuncomfortableâ comment from a female fan.
The British actor stars as Renee Zellwegerâs love interest in upcoming romantic comedy Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, and is also known for Prime Target and The White Lotus.
Last year, he rose to prominence in Netflix hit series One Day, based on the romantic David Nicholls book of the same name.

Woodall told Elle UK: âI donât really get the Tube any more. (A woman) told me her husband gets really jealous. It was just so uncomfortable.â
The actor said âit did all go a bit nuts for meâ.
âAt first it was, like, âoh this is coolâ, and pretty quickly it just started to feel a bit icky,â he added.
Woodall said he will take inspiration from Breaking Bad star Bryan Cranston on fame because âinstead of being in the limelight and getting caught up in all that, heâs just kept a lid on it and made some really good workâ.
The 28-year-old has been reportedly dating his White Lotus co-star Meghann Fahy, 34, who played Theo Jamesâs wife in the second series.
âWeâre very good at keeping it as private as we can,â Woodall said.
âTo me, thatâs the only way. You see public relationships all the time slapped all over social media and I canât imagine thatâs any fun. It should be a safe space and so I think letting people into it is completely counterproductive.â
