It looks like Paul Mescal is settling into his new fame.

The Kildare native shot to success when he stared as Connell in the Hulu and BBC show 'Normal People'.

Since then Paul has become somewhat of a fashion icon, with his O'Neill's GAA shorts going viral around the world, with Gucci even releasing a pair that looked just like Pauls.

Given that he is one of the most popular actors in the world at the moment, it was no surprise that Paul got asked to be on the cover of the July issue of GQ magazine.

When Paul posted a picture of his cover on Instagram, fellow Irish actor Jamie Dornan was quick to comment underneath, saying "ride".
