There are three things we know for sure about Josh Bowman. One, he plays the ridiculously handsome Daniel Grayson in the ABC series Revenge. Two, he has a really good American accent—he’s actually British, in case you didn’t know—and, three, he’s part of Penshoppe’s exclusive roster of international endorsers, which, fortunately for us, means getting to touch base with the 26-year-old hottie himself!

Now, we know that you’re all probably fanning yourself right now, just thinking about those sweet eyes and that charming smile, but you need to pace yourself, unless you want to spontaneously combust, because Josh is even more adorable once you get to know him. He’s refreshingly honest, always choosing to tell the truth instead of a convenient lie, which is a rare quality in show business.

“Being in Hollywood is a very funny, fickle, you know, fictitious kind of world to live in, and I think that honesty is rewarded, I hope,” he says, his voice softening a little bit.

“I’ve got a very good team. I’ve got people in LA who are honest and loyal and yeah... I’ve got great friends, support system out there, which is crucial.”

It is clear that Josh values the close relationships he’s built with people, as he continues. “I have very few friends, but they’re very close to my heart. I don’t have people running around everywhere,” he says, “It’s people who I can call, and sit down, and have a conversation with, a heart-to-heart, so yeah…”
