Paul Mescal had the best reaction when his ‘Hamnet’ costar Jessie Buckley won the Best Actress Oscar at the 2026 Academy Awards on March 15. See the candid moment when Mikey Madison introduced this year’s nominees—including Bugonia’s Emma Stone, Song Sung Blue’s Kate Hudson, If I Had Legs I’d Kick You’s Rose Byrne and Sentimental Value’s Renate Reinsve—an anxious-looking Paul sat one row behind Jessie with his clasped hands in front of his mouth. But as soon as his castmate’s name was announced, he adorably pumped his fists in the air and let out an excited shout. Jumping up from his seat next to girlfriend Gracie Abrams, the ‘Normal People’ alum then greeted Jessie with a big hug. And the love goes both ways. After all, Jessie once told Paul, "I could drink you like water." The 36-year-old raved to Paul, 30, when she won at the 2026 Critics Choice Awards in January, "I bloody love you, man. I know loads of other women do too, but tough s–t. You are a giant of the heart. Thank you so much for making me a little bit more human."
