Aimee Lou Wood shared a fun snap from Glastonbury after spending the weekend at the festival with her new boyfriend Adam Long.
The White Lotus actress, 31, took to her Instagram Story to document some of her fun-filled Glastonbury weekend which included a picture with a pal.
She looked stylish in a denim jacket layered over a red patterned dress as she enjoyed the festival held at Worthy Farm.
During her time in Somerset, Amiee was spotted sharing a giggle with her new boyfriend.
Actor Adam is best known for his role as convict Lewis Whippey in Happy Valley and looked like he was enjoying the festival as he relaxed in the snap with Aimee.
The pair – who are starring together in the upcoming BBC series Film Club – were first spotted sharing a kiss last month.

Aimee has liked all of Adam’s social media posts since their Film Club casting was announced last November.
She was also quick to praise the star after he completed a sponsored run in aid of Movember and men’s mental health awareness.
On a snap of the actor and his running buddies, Aimee penned: ‘YOU DID IT!!!!!!! ✨’
It’s believed the pair met last year working on their upcoming BBC Three series, written by Aimee, in which they play a couple.
The pair play lovers in the series, which follows Evie (Aimee) who sets up a film club with her best friend Noa (Nabhaan Rizwaan).
A BBC synopsis reads: ‘It’s Friday night. 7pm. Film Club Week 198. Evie hasn’t left the house in six months after a ‘wobble’, and tonight, things are different.
‘Noa’s got big news. A dream job is taking him across the other side of the country, which means that all of this is ending. That reality is hitting. That they’re going to be forced to consider for the first time they might be more than just friends.
‘Neither of them are the best when it comes to emotions but this time those emotions might be impossible to ignore…
‘As if life weren’t challenging enough already, Evie is going to be navigating this amongst the eccentricity of her family home – living with her fiercely loving single mum Suz (Suranne Jones), sister Izzie (Liv Hill), and handsome boyfriend/sometime man of the house Josh (Adam).
‘Film Club is a witty and emotional show about love and family, about whether we should follow our hearts or heads, and being in love with a friend.’

Speaking about the series, Aimee – who created the show with Ralph Davies – said in a statement: ‘I’m thrilled that our beloved TV series Film Club, a project that Ralph and I have been writing for the past decade, starts shooting this week.
‘We couldn’t be more excited, and grateful, to the incredible team we have assembled with the BBC.
‘To bring this to life with Nabhaan and Suranne, two exceptional actors I have always admired, is a real honour.’
The series was filmed in Manchester last year and is set for release on BBC iPlayer and BBC Three later this year.
Adam, who also starred in Day Of The Jackal and Waterloo Road, has not spoken publicly about his love life.
Aimee’s last known relationship was with her Sex Education co-star Connor Swindells, who she split from in 2020 after two years together.
Connor, 28, who stars in SAS Rogue Heroes, is now married to the Peaky Blinders star, Amber Anderson, 32, who he wed last year.
Discussing the reason behind their split, Aimee noted that relationships don’t have to consist of a ‘goodie’ and a ‘baddie’, but sometimes the combination of two personalities in a dynamic can result in ‘unhealthy themes’.
She said in an interview with Grazia: ‘We’d had some time apart and then we realised that maybe the relationship wasn’t serving us both,’ before stating that she and Connor still love each other and respect each other.
Adam’s most famous role to date was in BAFTA-winning Happy Valley, in which he played a convict who aided James Norton’s (left) Tommy Lee Royce in kidnapping the daughter of a wealthy businessman for ransom
According to Aimee the breakup was amicable and wasn’t dramatic. She compared the moment she became single to a dam bursting wide open.
She added: ‘When I’m in a relationship I find it hard to maintain my sense of self. I’m very independent but also quite impressionable.’

In recent months, the star has catapulted to global fame, owing to her role in HBO hit, The White Lotus.

However, the actress’ personal life caused more headlines than the series itself, with Aimee hitting out at Saturday Night Live for their ‘mean and unfunny’ parody of the show that mocked her teeth; as well as being embroiled in claims of a ‘feud’ with her on-screen lover.
The SNL sketch featured comedian Sarah Sherman, 32, parodying Aimee’s character Chelsea while using fake teeth to mock her, which prompted in widespread outrage.
The sketch poked fun at her Manchester U.K. accent and her teeth, with Sarah exclaiming: ‘Fluoride? What’s that?’
In response, Aimee took aim at the ‘cheap’ joke, writing on Instagram: ‘Such a shame cuz I had such a great time watching it a couple weeks ago. Yes, take the p**s for sure – that’s what the show is about- but there must be a cleverer, more nuanced, less cheap way?’
She also shared messages of support from her followers and sister Emily, admitting she’d received ‘thousands’ of messages backing her up.
Aimee continued: ‘Last thing I’ll say on the matter. I am not thin skinned. I actually love being taken the p**s out of when it’s clever and in good spirits. But the joke was about fluoride. I have big gap teeth not bad teeth.
‘I don’t mind caricature – I understand that’s what SNL is. But the rest of the skit was punching up and I/ Chelsea was the only one punched down On… Okay end of.’
To conclude, she shared a comment from a fan that read: ‘It was a sharp and funny skit until it suddenly took a screeching turn into 1970’s misogyny’, she added: ‘This sums up my view’.
Aimee’s rumoured feud with her White Lotus co-star Walton Goggins has also had fans talking in recent months
Aimee’s rumoured feud with her White Lotus co-star Walton Goggins has also had fans talking in recent months. The rumours hit an all-time high after they unfollowed each other on Instagram.
But last week the onscreen lovers put the rumours to bed, tackling the reports head on in a joint interview with Variety.
‘There is no feud. I adore, I love this woman madly, and she is so important to me,’ Walton insisted.
Aimee proceeded to address the outrage over headlines that Goggins unfollowed her on social media, which fans perceived as a sign they did not get along.
‘I think it’s such a comment on where we’re at culturally,’ she said over the online fury. ‘Why is everyone obsessing over Instagram? That is irrelevant. We don’t give a s**t about Instagram.’
She explained she wished more people were having ‘conversations about the story’ of their White Lotus characters, Rick and Chelsea, and simply enjoying the show.
As well as her new role in Film Club, Aimee has been kept busy filming series two of her BBC sitcom Daddy Issues.
This year will also see her star in crime-thriller film Sweet Dreams, which has been pitched as ‘a British Fargo’.
Adam’s most recent TV role was in the ITV drama Protection, which saw him reunite with Happy Valley co-star Siobhan Finneran.
His most famous role to date was in the BAFTA-winning Happy Valley, in which he played a convict who aided James Norton’s Tommy Lee Royce in kidnapping the daughter of a wealthy businessman, for ransom.
