Actor Taron Egerton was photographed jogging shirtless in London during a recent heatwave, two weeks after his casual romance with model Brooks Nader reportedly ended. Nader, 29, has publicly stated she is "just single, having fun, always."
Egerton, 36, appeared to be in good physical condition during his solo workout. He was seen wearing navy shorts and white trainers with a neon trim. The actor's next film role is in the dark comedy-thriller "Everybody Wants to F**k Me," directed by Jonathan Schey, where he plays a man who discovers he is being stalked by women.
Meanwhile, Nader was observed filming scenes on Venice Beach while wearing a red Baywatch swimsuit. She and Egerton, star of "Rocketman," had been romantically linked for approximately four months. An insider told US magazine that Nader is enjoying her downtime, juggling multiple projects, and is content with being single.
Their relationship began in March after being set up on a date, and Egerton was pictured meeting Nader's family in Los Angeles last month. However, Egerton has reportedly returned to the celebrity dating app Raya, changing his location to London to seek someone closer to home.
During their relationship, there was speculation about whether it was a "showmance," with some questioning if it was a strategic move by Egerton to enhance his chances of being cast as the next James Bond. Egerton is reportedly on the shortlist to replace Daniel Craig.
Sources close to the private actor expressed puzzlement over his public displays of affection with Nader, noting that images of them kissing in California fueled speculation about a potential "showmance," a term for romantic relationships used to boost public profiles.
It was reported that Lauren Sanchez introduced Egerton and Nader at her wedding to Jeff Bezos in Venice in June, and subsequently arranged their first official date in late March. A source told the Mail On Sunday that Nader had long desired to be in a "power couple."
Nader, a former beauty queen from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, has been open about utilizing media and social media for publicity. Her career gained momentum in 2019 when she was featured in Sports Illustrated, eventually becoming its swimsuit cover star in 2023. She currently stars in the Hulu reality show "Love Thy Nader" with her sisters.
