The Pogues and Kooks have been killing it outside The Cut lately—appearing on countless magazine covers, partying together at Tommy Hilfiger’s NYFW parade, and soaking up applause at the Venice Film Festival. 

As we near the premiere of Outer Banks Season 4 (coming to Netflix on October 10), we couldn’t help but wonder if the cast have been equally lucky in finding love off-screen, as they have been in their search for treasure onscreen. 

Scroll on for the lowdown on the OBX cast’s current real-life partners.

01

Chase Stokes

Chase appears to have struck gold (wink, wink) in his relationship with the talented country singer Kelsea Ballerini. The couple were first linked in January 2023 after fans sighted the two together at the College Football Playoff National Championship in Los Angeles.  

Since then, the couple have made numerous award show appearances together; and judging by their unapologetic PDA, we think it’s safe to assume they’re going strong.

02

Madelyn Cline

Following a very public breakup with her Outer Banks co-star Chase Stokes back in November 2021, Madelyn has been romantically linked to Ross Butler, Jackson Guthy, and most recently Pete Davidson. 

Nowadays, she tends to keep her love life mostly out of the public eye, stating in a Cosmopolitan interview in February 2023 “I don’t owe anyone an explanation, I am a really private person. There’s a part of me that is for me and nobody else.”

03

Rudy Pankow

Rudy’s current girlfriend of 4 years, Elaine Siemek was working as a film photographer and assistant on OBX Season 1 when they first met and began dating. The two don’t shy away from displaying their love online, often posting photos of their relationship and travels together on Instagram.

04

Madison Bailey

Madison has just surpassed 4 years with girlfriend, Mariah Linney. The pair went public back in June 2020, hard launching their relationship in a TikTok together. 

“I feel joyful with her every single day,” Madison said during an interview with Glamour UK in June 2021. “That might sound corny but I’m so serious — the joy is just being who I am with my girlfriend every single day.”

05

Jonathan Daviss

JD doesn’t appear to be romantically involved with anyone at this present moment. The actor tends to keep things out of the public eye—so not much is known about his love life.

06

Carlacia Grant

From what we could gather, Carlacia Grant is currently single.

Previously fans speculated that she and Jonathan Daviss were dating, but despite the two being a popular OBX off-screen ship, neither of the stars confirmed that there was any legitimacy to the romance rumours. 

07

Drew Starkey

Drew was previously linked to Claire Van Der Linden in the past, but it’s unclear where their relationship status stands today. 

Rumours of romance have circulated with his best friend Odessa A’zion over the years, however, nothing was ever confirmed or denied by either of them.

08

Austin North

The former Disney Channel star seems to be single, however, he was previously linked to Sadie Robertson.
