Fame and celebrity

  • American YouTuber and WWE wrestler Logan Paul is rumoured to be dating the Sports Illustrated beauty – they’ve been spotted together at least twice in London and NYC
  • She’s had flings with A-listers before, from Joe Jonas to Maroon 5’s Adam Levine, and she even stars in a film, Don Jon, with Scarlett Johansson and Brie Larson

YouTuber-turned-professional-wrestler Logan Paul has sparked rumours with Nina Agdal once again after a recent intimate dinner together in New York in mid-July, British media reported. Just one month earlier, the pair were reportedly spotted sharing a kiss on a night out with friends in London.

In June, Paul also mentioned in True Geordie’s podcast that he was seeing someone and, a month later, he confirmed with Impaulsive that he had a girlfriend. He didn’t say her name, but it’s believed that the mysterious girlfriend is Agdal.

When Agdal was 15, she was discovered while walking down the street in her hometown, Hillerød, to attend Elite Model Look, an annual competition, she shared with Fox News. She didn’t win, but landed a contract with Elite Models Copenhagen, she said in an interview with Daily Front Row.

After finishing school at 18, she flew to Miami to pursue a modelling career with limited English and practically empty pockets. “English was my worst subject in school. I was very shy about saying anything and was so scared. I landed with US$40 and a little piece of paper with the address for the model apartment,” she told Maxim for her 2017 cover shoot.
