In September 2022, Dylan O'Brien and Sabrina Carpenter were seen out in New York at a bar together. Rumors started spreading that the 31-year-old actor, known for The Maze Runner and Teen Wolf, is in a relationship with yet another woman who is much younger than him. This time it was the actress, singer, and songwriter Sabrina Carpenter.
The beautiful 23-year-old singer has been acting for more than a decade now. When the couple was spotted out and about, people had different theories as to the nature of their relationship. Some thought that they might be dating, while others thought they could just be working on something new together. Neither O'Brien nor Carpenter denied or confirmed their rumored romance. However, people had their own reasons to think that O'Brien and Carpenter are dating, and other reasons to believe that they most definitely are not.
Updated on March 24, 2023: At this point, the rumors of Sabrina Carpenter and Dylan O'Brien still have not been confirmed or denied. Carpenter doesn't share any photos on social media that hint at a boyfriend, as she mostly posts tour-related content and outings with her friends. Some fans have moved on, however, to believe that she is now romantically linked to Shawn Mendes after the duo were spotted on outings together beginning last month.
Dylan O'Brien avoids social media, so it's hard for fans to keep up with his dating life. As of January 2023, the newest development has been figuring out if he's dating model Rachael Lange, as they showed up to Paris Fashion Week together this year and were spotted holding hands.
Are Dylan O'Brien And Sabrina Carpenter Dating?
The dating rumor first started on September 11th, 2022 when someone sent a message to the Instagram account famous for sharing celebrity gossip, DeuxMoi. The message included a picture of the two of them standing next to each other outside a bar in New York City. They wore very casual outfits and looked comfortable, albeit pretty stylish. The picture started taking over social media and the theories began spreading like wildfire. Some fans even claimed that they saw O'Brien and Carpenter kissing at the bar.
Thinking that there is a new couple in the making, some people were supporting and liking the relationship. However, in light of how O'Brien is regularly reported to be in a new relationship, especially with a younger woman, some fans are confused. After all, it could all just be a rumor.
If the rumor is true, O'Brien would be replicating the role he played in Taylor Swift's "All Too Well" music video. Much like the controversial character, there's a significant age difference between him and Carpenter. Naturally, this is getting some backlash despite both individuals being of age.
A fan said on Reddit, "Isn't she a little young for him? She is 23 and he is 31. So not totally but a little. I thought she was a little younger and him a little older."
On the other hand, some people are all for it.
Again on Reddit, one person commented on a post about the age difference, writing, "I'm for it to be honest. Look, sometimes consensual adult relationships are just relationships. I kind of hate the narrative that at 23 you are a child. You are not. Plenty of people buy homes, get married, have kids by that age."
Some media platforms reached out to their teams and representatives to get a comment on the rumors. However, they did not hear back. At the time of this writing, neither party has confirmed nor denied the rumors that are taking the internet by storm.
Is Dylan O'Brien's Relationship With Sabrina Carpenter Nothing But Rumors?
On the other hand, some people are not buying the rumor. According to fans, Carpenter happened to be in New York to attend fashion week, not to go on dates. Someone else commented on the circulating picture and said that the girl does not look like Carpenter at all.
Assuming that was Carpenter in the picture, and she did go out on a date with O'Brien and kissed, fans wondered, "where is the picture of them kissing?"
It's simply nowhere to be found.
The report claimed that they are dating based on one anonymous tip. So this is exactly why some people are having a hard time believing that the rumor is legit. There is no actual evidence.
Meanwhile, others are tired of hearing rumors about O'Brien having new girlfriends. A fan found it hilarious that there were many rumors before that O'Brien denied, yet people are still making up new stories. He said, "Most of his good friends are girls!"
Someone commented on Reddit and said, "Hmm, I don't know! I feel like he has been rumored to be with quite a few different women recently, and it is hard to know! Lol!"
Commenting on how there seems to be a new rumor every day and how O'Brien has an intricate dating history, someone said, "I have also read rumors that Dylan has been getting close to Camila Cabello too."
As of now, no one really knows if they're together or not. The fans can only wait and see.
