When Paul said he wanted to work with Ayo
In November 2023, Paul expressed his interest in doing a romantic comedy with Ayo, telling Awards Watch, "Comedy scares me deeply because I think I saw Bottoms recently and I was in awe of how they do that. That's one of those I leave the cinema and I'm incredibly jealous and brightened of everybody's talents involved with that film. But I think in the next five years I'm going to set myself a challenge to do maybe a rom-com with Ayo [Edebiri] or something like that would be cool."
Ayo's joke about being Irish
Ayo might have posted the recent photo with Paul in reference to her claimed Irish roots, which has become a running joke on social media. She previously joked about her time living in Ireland to prepare for a role in The Banshees of Inisherin, only she wasn’t actually in the Oscar-nominated film, nor did she live in Ireland.
