Heartstopper star Kit Connor has revealed he has a “fat crush” crush on Hugh Grant – and who can blame him?

The 18-year-old, who plays Nick Nelson in the heartwarming Netflix series, gushed over Grant and explained how Notting Hill helped him “break the ice” with co-star Joe Locke.

Connor said the rom-com is his “comfort film”. 

“In terms of a film, I don’t know why, but Notting Hill has always been like my … I just put it on,” Kit Connor said at the BFI & Radio Times Television Festival in London on 22 May.

He even quoted Grant’s iconic line in the film, “whoopsie daisies”, before adding: “I have such a fat crush on Hugh Grant.”
