Nicole Kidman’s niece Lucia Hawley reveals her boyfriend Henry Poole’s reaction to her ‘flirty’ interview with Austin Butler
Nicole Kidman’s niece Lucia Hawley has revealed her boyfriend Henry Poole’s reaction to her ‘flirty’ interview with Austin Butler.
The 7Bravo reporter, 25, got very nervous while interviewing the Hollywood star, 32, at the State Theater during the Sydney Film Festival on Thursday night.
She tried to talk to Austin, who is dating Kaia Gerber, about his new movie The Bikeriders, but was quickly left red-faced when he turned the tables.
Instead of talking about his movie, he started asking Lucia questions about herself, prompting her fans to jokingly say that Austin was “flirting” with her.
The interview quickly went viral and Lucia has now shared her long-time boyfriend Henry’s reaction to the ‘flirty’ interview.

On her Instagram Stories, she joked that Henry was “not happy” as she shared a screenshot of the comment he left underneath the footage of the friendly interview.
Henry hilariously wrote, “Eyes where I can see them @austinbutler,” as he poked fun at the “flirty” chat.
When reposting his response, Lucia joked about Henry’s response: “@henrypoole_ weighed in guys… (he’s not happy).”
Lucia has been in a relationship with Henry for more than three years, but only spoke publicly about their relationship for the first time last year and shared their plans to move in together in 2024.

Footage of her high-profile interview with Austin showed Lucia introducing herself to the Elvis star before he began ‘interviewing’ her, a surprising turn of events.
‘I don’t like to talk about myself. Are you from Sydney?’ Austin asked her, and she said yes, joking that she was the one asking the questions.
“What else can you tell me, how old are you and what are you interested in?” he asked eagerly.
Lucia replied that she was interested in art and Austin then asked her where she finds “cool” artwork, prompting an embarrassed Lucia to burst out laughing.

During the interview, Lucia tried to talk to Austin about his new movie The Bikeriders, but quickly became red-faced when he started asking questions about her life.
“I should probably answer questions because this is my job. If I don’t, I’ll get in trouble,” she joked.
Followers quickly took to the comments section to express their amusement at the hilarious clip, joking that Austin was flirting with her.
‘This is brilliant!’ one fan wrote and a second person added, “This is incredible.”
‘This really made me like him! I loved that he was curious and interested in someone else,” a third person interjected.

While another said: ‘This is brilliant! Absolutely crazy about you Lu!’
For the event, Lucia wore a stunning all-black look for the exclusive event as she showed off her sense of style.
Sporting a smokey eye, the TV presenter rocked a figure-hugging maxi dress with a sassy cutout across her waist.
She dressed with a gold watch and stacks of rings on her wedding and middle fingers, heirlooms passed down from her mother.
Lucia is close to her famous aunt Nicole Kidman and the pair have often been spotted together at red carpet events
Lucia is the daughter of veteran Australian TV presenter Antonia Kidman – the younger sister of actress Nicole – and her late ex-husband Angus Hawley.
Last year, Lucia said she shouldn’t be called a “nepo baby” after landing a coveted new gig hosting red carpet events for Live From E! on Seven Network’s new channel 7Bravo.
“I’ve been working towards this,” she told The Sunday Telegraph at the time.
“Having a mother who has been in the industry, you get that perspective and understanding through osmosis and I think that’s been one of the biggest things that helped prepare me for this role, just watching her and how she carried herself through it all.”
