Normal People star Paul Mescal has laughed off his runaway success, saying the necklace he wore for the show “will always be more popular than I am”.

The BBC series is one of the most watched shows of the year, with viewers and critics alike enamoured by the adaption of Sally Rooney’s 2018 novel.

However, despite the widespread acclaim earnt by Mescal, 24, and co-star Daisy Edgar-Jones, 21, arguably the series’s breakout star has been the Irish heartthrob's silver chain.

The simple necklace has its own Instagram account, with more than 88,000 followers and counting, compared to the actor’s 425,000.
