Damson Idris's Girlfriend Lori Harvey Is a Model and Entrepreneur

Damson Idris is on the rise after scoring several notable film and television roles in recent years, none more so than his portrayal of Lt. Thomas Harp in Netflix's "Outside the Wire." However, he has recently been in the headlines for his new girlfriend.

Despite making his first appearance on-screen ten years ago, Idris is still considered to be in the early years of his career, perhaps due to his limited screen time. His most significant contribution has been as a central cast member of the crime drama "Snowfall" since 2017; it airs its series finale in 2023.

Little is known about Idris' romantic life. However, beginning in December 2022, his dating status shot into the headlines after speculations surfaced that he was dating model and businesswoman Lori Harvey. Lori is famous for her exploits in the entertainment and modeling industries and has some very famous exes.

Rumors about Lori and Idris began at the end of 2022 when the pair were seen together on several occasions. This came several months after her breakup with "Creed" actor Michael B. Jordan with whom she had a one-and-a-half-year relationship.

A month after the speculations started swirling, Lori made their relationship Instagram official, posting a selection of pictures, including one of her sitting on Idris' lap. The photos were shared with a teasing caption, "If you missed it I hate that for you."

Shortly after, while chatting with Rolling Stone, Idris spoke about how he manages the media's and fans' gossip while maintaining a healthy relationship with his famous girlfriend. For him, it is necessary to keep it as normal as possible and put less focus on external forces. He added:

"It's just watching other people that I admire do it so greatly and just understanding that you don't always have to show the world your personal life. What you do for a living is an extension of yourself, and that's your baby. And you need to protect that. You also need to protect your personal self too."
