Josh O’Connor's balancing act

Josh O'Connor's Balancing Act

Josh O'Connor, known for his roles in Challengers and The Crown, has become the internet's most reluctant thirst trap. With four new films on the horizon, including the next Knives Out, he is on the verge of megastardom.

In the summer of 2024, after the success of Challengers, O'Connor retreated to a small village in the Cotswolds, where he focused on his garden and maintained a sense of normalcy. He prefers to keep his exact location private, having experienced an influx of fan mail and gifts after previously sharing his address in an interview.

He’d rather we didn’t name the exact area, because the last time he did that in an interview, post started showing up – some letters, some books.

O'Connor spent his downtime tending to his garden, mowing the lawn, and enjoying the peaceful surroundings. As he navigates his rising fame, he remains determined to stay true to himself.

Author's summary: Josh O'Connor balances fame and normalcy.
