But that's just onscreen. Once the camera stops rolling, the stars of the Netflix hit have their own IRL romances, and some of them are even more exciting than the onscreen ones. Now that we're days away from the premiere of season four, we can't wait to see how these romances unfold. Here's a look at all of your fave Stranger Things stars and what's going on in their love lives.

Millie Bobby Brown
Millie is booed up in a friends-to-lovers fairytale, just like her character Eleven. In June 2021, she was caught holding hands with her bestie Jake Bongiovi in New York City, and dating rumors quickly surfaced. The duo later made their red carpet debut at the British Academy Film Awards in March 2022.
Since then, they've been posting theee most adorable usies on their Instagram Story and celebrating each other's birthdays with adorable shoutouts.
Most recently, Jake shouted out Millie (and Harry Styles) in a cute two-picture carousel post on his IG feed.
And if you were wondering, Millie and Jake hit the Stranger Things season four premiere together, too.
Finn Wolfhard
Finn has kept details about his private life under wraps. While he hasn't officially confirmed who he is dating, social media fan pages shared pictures from
Finn's IG Story with fellow actor Elsie Richter, who he was rumored to be dating in 2021.
He's always been tight-lipped about his relationship. Back in 2016, Finn tweeted, "I do not have a girlfriend! I'm only a baby boy!"
He later corrected himself, joking that he is actually dating Pennywise the clown from the movie It, in which Finn starred in.
Gaten Matarazzo
Gaten has been dating his girlfriend, Lizzy Yu, for four years now. The couple celebrated their anniversary this March 2022, and Gaten posted the sweetest message in honor of his gf.
He posted a picture of Lizzy standing underneath tea lights and captioned it, "Four years? That’s dope. I love you. Thanks for being my best friend. Happy anniversary goob. Edit: im an hour late to the post😒. Sahwy."
Gaten posted a hilarious picture with Lizzy in honor of her birthday in March 2021. "Happy Birthday to one of the funniest, sweetest, kindest, most loving people I’ve ever known. I hope this day was as incredible as you could have ever wanted. Also you’re still a loser. 🖕❤️ Happy 19th goob. Love you."
We can't forget how adorable they looked when they headed to junior prom together in May 2021.
Gaten previously told Us Weekly that his family loves his girlfriend. "My brother and my sister get along with her great," he said. He also revealed that their go-to date involves playing pool at his house, which is so adorable.
Lizzy apparently won over Gaten's Stranger Things family as well. Millie welcomed Lizzy to the family on her Instagram story, letting Gaten know that she approves of his girlfriend.
Caleb McLaughlin
While Lucas is in one of the cutest relationships on the show, the actor who plays him, Caleb, is most likely single. He has never shown any evidence of being in a relationship, though, of course, he could just be keeping things very quiet.
Noah Schnapp
While it was never confirmed, there were rumors back in 2017 that Noah was dating Millie, though the two were most likely just very good friends. Around that same time, the actor told
Rawthat he was single, though he did reveal that he would maybe date a fan. Since then, there has been little to no info on who Noah could possibly be dating.

Sadie Sink
Like many of her costars, Sadie Sink is also single, though she does have an adorable real-life BFF relationship with Millie Bobby Brown.
Back in 2021, there were rumors that Sadie was possibly dating Patrick Alwyn —brother of Joe Alwyn, who is currently dating Taylor Swift — but those rumors have yet to be confirmed.
Natalia Dyer and Charlie Heaton
In classic Riverdale fashion, not only do Natalia and Charlie make up the adorable onscreen couple of Nancy and Jonathan, but they are also dating IRL! It's unclear how long the two have been together since they kept things hush at first, but it seems like they've been dating for almost six years! The couple confirmed their relationship back in December 2017 at the Fashion Awards in London, but some evidence shows they've been together since September of 2016, and they're still going strong all these years later.
In OG-couple fashion, the duo attended Netflix's Stranger Things season four premiere together.
Even though their relationship has been confirmed for years, they are still pretty private when it comes to talking about it. Though Natalia talked to Refinery 29about working with her boyfriend.
"It’s an interesting thing to work with somebody who you go home with," she said. "It’s always really fun. We’re really comfortable with each other, so we can play and feel more free, and we can talk about it before."
Natalia also revealed why the couple is so secretive about discussing their romance. "That’s something important to me — with my family, with my friends, I really like to keep it for me," she said.
Joe Keery
I'm sorry to say that, unfortunately, Joe is off the market. He has been dating his girlfriend, actress Maika Monroe, for five years, ever since the two met on the set of the movie After Everything. Joe even brought his GF to the season three premiere of Stranger Things.
They're still going strong, and attended the Vanity Fair Academy Awards party together.
Dacre Montgomery
The bad news just keeps coming because Dacre is also in a committed relationship with model Liv Pollock who is from the actor's hometown of Perth, Australia. The two met over social media a few years ago, but Liv recently relocated to the US to be closer to Dacre, according to the Daily Mail, so it seems like things have or are getting pretty serious.
Maya Hawke
Of the older kids in the Stranger Things cast, it seems like none of them are single. Maya is now reportedly dating Spencer Barnett. The Daily Mail obtained photos of the couple packing on major PDA last Valentine's Day. They haven't gone Instagram official, just yet, but we'll drop major hearts in the comment section when they do.
