Is Saoirse Ronan Dating Anyone? Who is her Boyfriend?

The rise to stardom comes with its attendant interest in almost if not everything about one, with relationship status being a major topic. Saoirse Ronan has really made her mark in acting and is definitely soaring higher and so every detail about her becomes a topic for public scrutiny.

In 2013, it was rumored that she hooked up with her on-screen lover, George MacKay, a British actor, who was her co-star in How I Live Now (2013). Shortly after, she was reported to be dating another co-star,  from the 2013 film, The Host. He is also a British actor and they were together for only a short period.

Her new relationship status is currently dating. Like her previous relationships where she met her beaus on set, her current date is no different. The duo met at the shooting of his music video for his song, Cherry Wine in 2017. Andrew Hozier-Byrne is his name. He is an Irish singer and is known for his hit Take Me to Church (2014).

They were seen together on a number of dates in Dublin in May 2017 and also with a group of friends at the 2fm Christmas Ball after the video shoot. The famous couple may not have said anything about the relationship but we do hope they are an item.

Saoirse appeared on The Show in December 2017 where she was asked if she was dating anyone. She gave the most awkward response that she doesn’t know how to date and doesn’t even know how to talk about dating. She was just joking, right?
