Before becoming a global star and being linked to Jennifer Lopez, Brett Goldstein endured years of rejection
The south Londoner worked in comedy, acting and script editing before landing Ted Lasso’s Roy Kent in 2020, a role that brought Emmy success
During lockdown, he also appeared in a wonderfully odd Love Island parody, dating household objects including a plant and a football
The series was created with his then-partner Beth Rylance
Goldstein later co-created Shrinking and co-wrote Office Romance, in which he starred opposite Lopez, prompting fresh romance speculation.
