Waterloo Road actress Hattie Dynevor appeared completely enamoured as she walked hand-in-hand with her boyfriend, professional footballer Callum Doyle, during a leisurely stroll through Cheshire on Thursday. The 22-year-old star, younger sister of Bridgerton's Phoebe Dynevor, looked every bit the contented partner as the couple wandered along the high street before popping into Marks & Spencer for a quick bite to eat.
Relaxed Fashion Choices for Casual Outing
For their low-key excursion, Hattie opted for comfortable yet stylish attire, sporting a blue bomber jacket layered over a simple white hoodie and navy leggings. She completed her ensemble with white gym socks and chunky trainers, carrying her essentials in a practical white cross-body bag. Meanwhile, 22-year-old Callum kept things equally casual in a black tracksuit featuring a hoodie and wide-leg jogging bottoms, finishing his look with distinctive green trainers.
Couple's Spirited Shopping Trip
The pair appeared in excellent spirits as they exited the store with their shopping, clearly enjoying each other's company during their relaxed afternoon together. This public appearance follows Hattie's subtle social media introduction of her romance with the Wrexham footballer earlier this year, when she shared photographs from a peaceful Cotswolds getaway with her new beau.
Football Career and Wrexham Connection
Callum Doyle began his professional football career at Premier League champions Manchester City before subsequent spells at Sunderland, Coventry City, and Leicester City. His career took an interesting turn in July 2025 when he joined Wrexham as one of thirteen summer signings, just ahead of the club's first season back in English football's second tier since 1982. Wrexham has experienced a remarkable transformation since Hollywood actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney assumed ownership in 2020.
Family Connections and Acting Heritage
Hattie Dynevor comes from a distinguished acting family, being the younger sister of Bridgerton star Phoebe Dynevor and daughter of Coronation Street actress Sally Dynevor, 61. Following in her family's footsteps, Hattie has carved her own path in the entertainment industry, currently portraying Libby Guthrie in the BBC's revived Waterloo Road series.
Wedding Details for Sister Phoebe
During recent interviews, Hattie has shared intriguing details about her sister Phoebe's upcoming wedding to American actor Cameron Fuller, 29. The proposal occurred during a family holiday in the English countryside last May, with Hattie describing the moment as particularly emotional.
'She got engaged at the Cotswolds, and it was so beautiful,' Hattie told the Daily Mail's Richard Eden at the TV Choice Awards in February. 'All the family were there. She was crying her eyes out – it was tears of happiness.'
Bridesmaid Duties and Wedding Plans
Hattie confirmed she will serve as bridesmaid for her sister's wedding and expressed genuine enthusiasm about her future brother-in-law, whom she described as 'the best.' When asked if Phoebe had transformed into a 'bridezilla,' Hattie responded reassuringly: 'No, she is very chilled so I think she will just enjoy every moment and I am really looking forward to being on that journey with her.'
Regarding wedding dress expectations, Hattie suggested her sister would likely choose something 'classic, traditional,' though she noted Phoebe hasn't selected her gown yet. The ceremony is expected to be an intimate affair, with Hattie explaining: 'I think it will be quite close knit as well. I think it will be quite small.'
Mother's Joy and Wedding Planning
Mother Sally Dynevor expressed overwhelming happiness about her daughter's engagement, sharing a photograph at the time and declaring: 'My daughter has just got engaged ... He's gorgeous, he's such a lovely man. I'm so, so happy. I'm thrilled, it's actually made my year.' The Coronation Street star has insisted she won't interfere with the couple's wedding planning, preferring to let them design their special day according to their own preferences.
While the exact wedding location remains undecided, Hattie confirmed the event is scheduled for next year and that her sister has recently secured a wedding planner to help coordinate the celebrations. The Dynevor family continues to navigate both professional achievements and personal milestones, with Hattie's blossoming romance with Callum Doyle adding another chapter to their ongoing story.
