His Views on Dating
Taron Egerton has expressed that he prefers traditional methods of dating over modern online platforms like Tinder or Twitter. Describing himself as “old school,” he favors romantic gestures such as sharing an umbrella during a rainstorm over swiping right on an app. In one instance, Taron boldly approached a woman on public transportation to ask her out “Kamikaze-style.” He candidly told her:
“I think you’re gorgeous, and I think we should go for a drink sometime.”
He later skipped an afternoon at drama school to go on that date, admitting it was both nerve-wracking yet incredibly fulfilling.

Taron Egerton’s Relationship Journey
Taron was romantically involved with Emily Thomas, a British assistant director and producer known for her work on television series like “Longtime.” Their relationship began around November 2016 and lasted approximately two years. Despite their busy schedules within the same industry, they made efforts to balance their professional commitments with their personal life together.
Describing their time together as precious moments spent camping out of his camper van while listening to podcasts or enjoying drinks under the stars—these were some of Taron’s happiest times.
The couple was seen together at high-profile events such as Elton John’s AIDS Foundation Academy Awards Viewing Party and BAFTAs ceremonies. Although rumors circulated about them briefly splitting up for three months during this period, they eventually reconciled.
In early January 2017 during an interview with Heat Radio when asked if he was single—though initially coy—he did mention Emily several times without directly naming her.
Addressing Rumors Amidst Heated Discussions
During discussions surrounding Hollywood’s #MeToo movement—a topic that brought many allegations against prominent figures into public discourse—Taron reflected deeply upon these issues within relationships too. It led him to question whether he’d prefer solitude over being involved with someone who might bring complications or accusations into his life due to misunderstandings or misinterpretations regarding behavior within relationships today.
