Emily has been dipping her toe into the dating pond since she parted ways with her film producer lover, Rob Jowers, in September 2019 after six months together.
Now she appears to have moved on with Charlie, and the pair enjoyed drinks at a pub on the weekend before heading to a local shop in the rain and having a sweet kiss.
Friends told The Sun that the Inbetweeners actress had been wooed by Charlie – who also works as a tattoo artist – on Instagram before they started dating.
A friend told the publication: ‘Emily seems totally taken with Charlie and he’s really into her. They met through a mutual friend.’
MailOnline has contacted Emily’s and Charlie’s representatives for comment.

‘They share the same sense of humour and are both chilled out. She’s super busy with her career at the moment so is more than happy to take it slowly.’
This summer, Emily admitted the novelty of Zoom dating quickly wore off as she said she struggled to build a meaningful bond without the opportunity to meet in person.
She explained to The Sun: ‘I had a couple of Zoom dates and realised I need the tactile vibes. I’ve got to have the physical connection. I spoke to a couple of pleasant people but Zoom dating ain’t for me.’
Emily has been dipping her toe into the dating pond since she parted ways with her film producer lover, Rob Jowers, in September 2019 after just six months of dating.

The pair became an item after they met at Jack Whitehall’s BRITs after-party and he offered to buy her a drink.
The actress had hopes of a ‘happy ending’ as their relationship progressed, and she even flirted with the idea of marriage and children, but their union ended after six months.
After dealing with the heartbreak of their separation, Emily embarked on the longest period of her life as a single woman, opting to focus on herself first and foremost.
She added to the publication: ‘I’ve only been single for nine months and that’s a really nice time to be by yourself. This is the longest I’ve ever been single.’

Emily has a history of dating hunky celebrities including One Direction’s Harry Styles and London-based model Jack Vacher.
With no shortage of potential suitors knocking at her door, the actress has decided to put dating on the back-burner to prioritise her career.
She continued to The Sun: ‘I’ve always been in relationships so I know I don’t struggle to get a boyfriend. I’m just choosing career and fun and all those things at the moment.’
At the time, Emily added that it is an ‘important’ thing for her to be single after turning 30 in December.
