Benedict Cumberbatch 'very close' to Patty Hearst daughter Lydia

I am so disappointed...a model/actress/ party girl????

Is he really just like every other shallow actor in Hollywood???

I guess my fascination is over......

So his girlfriend is a model/actress/party girl????

This is a major disappointment!!!

I guess my fascination is over

everyone keeps missing that in the original article, he and his publicist both said no, they're not dating... They're friends and that's it.

He is a famous and very talented actor heading to hollywood! Why shouldnt he date someone gorgeous and famous! He's not going to date a 'Normo'! If I was famous and rich, I think I'd date someone gorgeous and famous too... Like.... Benedict Cumberbatch maybe???

They did a photo shoot in Vogue before he went to California. He's young. He apparently likes to dance and it's always good to have a friend in a new place. None of this affects his talent or his abilities. Let's hope and pray for him that the foundations in the shelter of the West End has taught him to maintain the controls most never learn when they go straight to Hollywood.

Let's hope so. By all appearances he's the real deal and I hope he finds someone (perhaps after these whirlwind years) to help raise that family he has been wanting for so long. It has been a long time since I have found anyone in the entertainment industry so intriguing. Would love to see him on stage...that voice...
