Lucas Bravo rose to prominence as Gabriel, the charming Parisian chef, in Netflix’s *Emily in Paris*. Since the show’s debut in 2020, the French actor has mostly kept his personal life away from the public eye. However, he has occasionally opened up about his approach to love and relationships.
### Early Relationship and Views on Dating
In December 2021, Bravo revealed to *Grazia* that he had recently ended a relationship with a fellow actress he was “very much in love” with. He explained,
> “I was very much in love, but timing wasn’t on our side. We were doing the same job, and we had a very private relationship. She was working a lot, and I was working a lot, and we were at opposite points in the world for an amount of time, and we decided it was going to be too hard. We’re still good friends.”
He also emphasized the importance of keeping professional and romantic lives separate, telling *Glamour* in October 2020,
> “Once you step on set, it’s a workplace, and I want to keep it professional. I mean, you never know what can happen, but I really try as much as possible to focus on the story we have to tell and the performance and the character.”
### Relationship with Shailene Woodley (Spring–Summer 2025)
In March 2025, Bravo was seen holding hands with actress Shailene Woodley while strolling through Paris’s Saint-Germain-des-Prés neighborhood. On April 3, he confirmed their relationship to *People* magazine during the opening night of Broadway’s *Good Night, and Good Luck*. He expressed his happiness, saying,
> “Yeah, I’m really happy.”
By August, Woodley visited Bravo on the set of *Emily in Paris*. A source told *People* that Bravo “is a breath of fresh air” for Woodley and described him as “uncomplicated, kind, not pretentious and emotionally present.”
The source added,
> “Woodley was thriving. It’s a whole new vibe. She was happy, light and having fun again, though not looking to rush anything.”
### The Breakup
However, by mid-September 2025, reports emerged that the couple had parted ways. On September 15, *People* reported that their “whirlwind romance” had ended, and both Bravo and Woodley had removed photos of each other from Instagram.
A source close to Woodley stated that the breakup “happened recently,” adding,
> “[Bravo] has his own projects and commitments. There is no drama, or hard feelings. They just have different priorities.”
