Who is the Cast of 'Sex Education' Dating in Real Life?

Asa Butterfield

In Sex Education, Otis, played by Asa Butterfield, is awkward and anxious when it comes to love. In real life, the actor mostly keeps his love life private, but he has been rumored to date a few different stars over the years.

Asa reportedly dated his Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children costar, Ella Purnell, from 2015 to 2016.

Some Sex Education fans got excited in 2021 when they suspected a romantic connection between Asa and Mimi Keene, who plays one of his love interests on the show. The rumors surfaced after people online found Instagram photos posted by both stars where they appear to be at the same gorgeous buttercup field.

At the moment, Asa seems to be living the single life. When asked by GQ if he wanted to answer questions about his relationship status, the actor replied lightheartedly, “No, I want to keep them guessing.”
