Us Weekly, which also reported about the pair’s Comic-Con party PDA, said that Robertson was previously linked romantically to actor Graham Rogers and also dated Teen Wolf alum Dylan O’Brien, her co-star in the film The First Time, from 2012 until late 2018.
Apa’s love life has been somewhat of a mystery. The New Zealand-born actor told Cosmopolitan in 2017, “I think I’m just waiting for the right time, right girl,” he says. “I’m pretty busy at the moment. I don’t know how much I have to offer to someone right now.”
“The thing is, I don’t think it matters whether you’re looking for a relationship or not,” Apa told Seventeen the following year. “It’s not for us to decide when we meet the love of our lives.”
