Taron Egerton Joins Raya After Split from Marvel Girlfriend

Taron Egerton appeared to have found love at the end of last year with a Marvel star but it appears he is back on the market. 

The Rocketman star, 35, has been spotted looking for love on celebrity dating app Raya after relocating to Los Angeles. 

Back in December it was revealed Taron had been secretly dating actress Chloe Bennett for several months with the pair enjoying dates in the UK and US.

But the emergence of his profile – in pictures seen by MailOnline – on Raya suggests the pair have called it quits, just months after making it official. 

The Welsh actor’s profile said that he was visiting London but resides in LA, and he tagged the track Lou’s Tune by DARGZ.

MailOnline has approached representatives for Taron for comment. 

In December, Taron was seen enjoying a romantic stroll with Chloe in New York City, just days after the pair confirmed their romance.

The pair wrapped up from the winter chill as they took in the sights of the Big Apple.

Taron wore a dark cardigan over a casual black ensemble which he teamed with a pair of comfortable beige high top trainers.

Meanwhile Chloe, who’s best known for her role in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, opted for a long brown coat and jeans. 

The stunner completed the look with a knitted beanie while styling her long high-lighted tresses in loose waves. 

The week before, the couple were spotted for the first time together as they once again strolled though the streets of New York before stopping in a cafe for a kiss.

An insider said last year of his relationship with Chloe: ‘Taron has had a turbulent few years but things are much better with Chloe in the picture.

‘They met in the US and went on a string of dates here before deciding to take a trip to the UK together.

‘He showed her some of his favourite spots and they managed to fly under the radar, which was convenient because they’re both super-private people.

‘They are busy and taking it slowly, but from what they’ve been telling friends, it is going really well.’

The last time Taron reportedly joined celebrity dating app was after his split from is long-term girlfriend Emily Thomas in April 2022.

Following their split, Taron deleted all traces of the assistant director from his Instagram profile at the time.

At the time sources close to the star claimed their relationship became ‘strained’ due to their busy schedules.

An insider told The Sun back in April 2022: ‘Taron and Emily have both been really busy for the past year and it put a lot of pressure on their relationship.

‘They have separated and it hasn’t been easy for either of them. He is taking some time for himself now but he is open to meeting someone else soon.

‘He has been putting himself out there on Raya in the hopes he can ease himself back into dating.’ 

Emily has worked on blockbuster movies including the likes of Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Wonder Woman and Justice League.

He previously split with Emily in 2018 before confirming they had reconciled at the pre-BAFTA Filmmakers Dinner four months later. 

In November of that year, the Robin Hood actor dropped the bombshell he had split from Emily after two years together.

Taron insisted he was ‘reinventing’ himself in the wake of the break up as he shaved his head to play Sir Elton John in the biopic Rocketman.

He claimed shaving his head had a ‘cathartic’ impact to change the way he looked following his split.

He said: ‘I found it quite liberating because I just finished the Elton John thing and had this awful hair. So, I shaved my hair cos they had thinned it right out and given me this bald patch.

‘It was very cathartic and also, not to put a downer on things, I split up with my girlfriend not long ago and it weirdly felt a bit like reinvention… to sort of change the way I look.’
