‘Doctor Who’ season 9: Is star Jenna Coleman getting close to Prince Harry?

If the “Doctor Who” actress does end up spending some more time with Prince Harry, she is going to find out. The Sun first posted a story about the time two parties spent together at an event on May 31, using the rather-silly title of “Doctor Woo” on their front page. Coleman and her previous beau, former “Game of Thrones” and “Cinderella” star Richard Madden, reportedly split a good while ago.

Here is what a source told the magazine about Coleman’s time with the Royal:

“It was a very flirty, very tactile encounter. She was leaning into him and he had his hand on her knee … From their body language it looked like they were really enjoying each other’s company.”

Of course, one thing that you really must remember here is to take most relationship stories from the British press with a massive grain of salt. Just because two people are spending time together does not mean that they are dating, and are really anything more than friends. The issue here is that if you are a part of the Royal Family at this point, you have to expect that anyone you spend time with will be automatically subject to various rumors and stories.

In going back to “Doctor Who,” you will have a chance to see Coleman back on screen as Clara Oswald soon enough. The new season is slated to begin on the BBC come late summer.
