Irish actor Daryl McCormack from "Peaky Blinders" is one of the most dashing presences on the screen, but he is only known to have had one romance with a fellow actress.

Handsome Daryl McCormack has the looks of a romantic lead, so fans imagine him to be a lady's man, but they couldn't be further from the truth. The actor likes to keep his love life low-key.

The one romance he allowed to be spoken of publicly is with a fellow Irish actress with an impressive resumé who is as talented as he is.

Actor Daryl McCormack is catching the eye of Hollywood producers after starring in the 2022 film "Good Luck to You, Leo Grande" opposite two-time Academy Award winner Dame Emma Thompson.

McCormack started garnering attention with his acting and good looks in the British series "Peaky Blinders" with Cillian Murphy, and his growing body of fans want to know more about him, what he likes, and whom he loves.

His American grandfather sparked the idea of becoming an actor when he took McCormack to see "A Raisin in the Sun" when he was 17.

However, McCormack is notoriously discreet about his romantic life and has only had one relationship he's owned up to publicly, with Irish actress India Mullen.

Daryl McCormack Had Been a Supportive Lover to His Only Known Girlfriend

In 2015 it became known that McCormack was dating an actress, India Mullen. At that time, the actress was cast in the British soap "Red Rock," where she participated in some steamy scenes with co-star Adam Weafer. Mullen confided in an interview:

"Daryl is an actor himself, so he's very understanding when it comes to that kind of stuff. I don't think it bothers him much; I think he trusts that I'm doing my job and not getting carried away."

Mullen described McCormack as a supportive, loving, and understanding partner, but the couple dropped out of sight. In 2021 Mullen was rumored to be dating "Normal People" co-star Paul Mescal.

As it turned out, Mescal and Mullen share a house, but their relationship is strictly platonic -- Mescal was in a relationship with musician Phoebe Bridgers. As for Mullen and McCormack, if the relationship ended or is discreetly ongoing is a mystery.

Daryl McCormack Has Other Special Women in His Life

There are two women for whom McCormack makes no effort to hide his adoration: his mother and his grandmother. McCormack resulted from a summer romance between an Irish girl and a young African-American man.

The two met in California, and McCormack's mother returned to Ireland when the relationship ended. She was pregnant, and her mother and father were supportive and helped her raise her son.

Even though McCormack has little contact with his father, his paternal grandfather Percy Thomas, who manages a theater company, was delighted to welcome his grandson. McCormack said:

"The second he heard of himself having a grandson, he instantly made his way over to Ireland and connected with my family. Our relationship is so special. I think because we both had such an interest and connection to the performing arts."
