Simone Ashley Opens Up About Career Focus After Breakup with Tino Klein
Simone Ashley is actively promoting her new film, Picture This.
Simone Ashley, best known for her role in Bridgerton, has publicly acknowledged her breakup with Tino Klein. While she is currently on a promotional tour for her upcoming rom-com, Picture This, Ashley took the opportunity to discuss her relationship status during a recent appearance on BBC’s Woman’s Hour podcast.
In the interview, Ashley reflected on her decision to prioritize herself and her career after the split. She remarked on the coincidence of promoting a romantic comedy during a personal transition, stating, “It’s kind of ironic that I’m promoting a rom-com while entering my single era as of January this year.”
Ashley emphasized her renewed focus on personal growth, saying, “I am focusing on me and focusing on my work and my inner confidence.” She described how the chaotic period following the release of Bridgerton felt like a transformative moment in her life.
The actress and Klein were last seen together in public in October of the previous year at an art exhibition hosted by fashion designer Marco Capalado. Their relationship had initially come to light following their meeting at the Monaco Grand Prix in November 2022. At that time, Ashley expressed her contentment in an interview with Vogue, sharing, “I’m very happy. We are having those discussions about how we can get there before anyone else does,” adding, “We haven’t gone public yet.”
Before their relationship became public in March 2023, Ashley shared a charming photo of herself and Klein at a BAFTA Awards after-party, referring to it as ‘one of my favourite photos.’
On the professional front, Ashley is preparing for the release of Picture This, where she stars alongside Hero Fiennes Tiffin. The film follows Pia, portrayed by Ashley, who learns that she will meet her true love within five days. As she navigates her quest for love, complications arise when her ex-boyfriend re-enters her life, adding complexity to her search for happiness.
