John Boyega has shared an insight into his love life and what he’s looking for in a partner, should you be interested 👀

(Spoiler alert: we are) 👇🏾

The 30-year-old actor, who plays the role of King Ghezo in #TheWomanKing, has never publicly dated anyone, and while it sounds like he won’t be any time soon, that doesn’t mean he’s not looking for love...
Asked whether he now focuses on love after focusing on work for so long, he said:

‘Both are a priority. That’s changed. I’m 30 now. From 28, I just worked on getting peace and getting myself together. Moving with honesty and transparency.'
'No misleading. No lying. And being devoted to what I commit myself to' 🙌🏾

And on whether or not he was a ladies’ man, the cheeky star noted: ‘Come on, [I’m] Yoruba. When I was in college, I was the guy. I had many wives.’
However, take note, Boyega – who was the recipient of viral marriage proposals in 2020 – has rules about who he sets his sights on in a romantic sense...
He explained in an interview:

‘I only date Black, then it’s about chemistry, personality, goals. Is there a synergy? Can I help you? Can you help me?'

‘I’m very disciplined in the type of women I speak to. They don’t want you in their business.'
‘Being in the public eye, they would prefer if you had the wife and family. It’s the ultimate PR package. But my parents have been together for 35 years.'

'There’s nothing that this world can do in terms of pressure to make me be inspired by anything else but my parents' 🙌🏾
When asked on the Happy Confused Sad podcast whether he would consider playing Bond, after Daniel Craig hung up his tuxedo, Boyega admitted:

‘I’m sorry but I’m Black – I don’t know how.'
‘When you’re Black, I don’t know how that goes. You as a white man grew up in a society as a white man and that’s normal. That’s normal to you. Even the mention of a Black Bond is like “Oh, okay.”’

‘I don’t necessarily believe that but if that’s what they’re doing then...'
'...that is very surprising to me.'

‘As an actor, you kind of just stay out of that conversation. But if it’s for you then maybe. But if not then you just enjoy it in a movie theatre like everyone else.’

Are you ready for some pretty disturbing #GoT content?

Apparently most fans didn't read the books... so they're only now finding out that the hotties they were lusting after were literally meant to be 14 years old.

Yes, you read that right.

😳😳😳👇

Before the epic fantasy drama hit TV, the show’s creators made the decision to make specific characters older than their book counterparts.

Daenerys begins the first book aged just 13, while her husband Khal Drogo (played by Jason Momoa) is almost 30. Image
Jon and Robb, meanwhile, are only 14.

The realisation has (unsurprisingly) disturbed some fans of the show.

🗣‘Reading the book and knowing the ages really creeps me out,’ one commented on social media.

This week, the show drew to a close, with the episode 6 ending featuring the debut of Jake Lockley in the post-credits scene, as well as a fight between Marc Spector, Steven Grant (both played by Oscar Isaac), Arthur Harrow (Ethan Hawke) and Layla El-Faouly (May Calamawy).
Having been reluctant to become the avatar for the ancient Egyptian moon god Khonshu, Layla eventually became an avatar for the hippo god Taweret instead, donning a stunning outfit as part of her superhero transformation, complete with sword-embellished wings 😮
