Stop the presses, tell your group chat, and alert your emotionally unavailable situationship: Dylan O’Brien is in love and not afraid to show it… publicly!
The Maze Runner heartthrob (yes, he still runs in our dreams) was seen this week in New York City, locking fingers and lips with his boo, Rachael Lange, who—plot twist—is not just his girlfriend but also a real-life model. (Because apparently being genetically blessed is their couple’s theme.)
Spotted on Wednesday (May 8), Dylan (33) and Rachael (27) took to the streets of NYC serving “we’re too hot to care” realness in casual fits, hand-holding like it’s 2007, and stopping mid-walk for a full-on kiss that probably caused at least three single people to audibly gasp and drop their iced coffee.
And yes, in case your memory is blurry from scrolling too much TikTok, these two first sparked “wait, are they…?” rumors during Paris Fashion Week back in January 2023. You know, the event where beautiful people gather to be beautiful and accidentally soft-launch their relationships.
By October 2023, Rachael basically confirmed what we were all whispering into our skincare mirrors—posting cutesy photos of them frolicking in pumpkin patches and holding hands in what looked like an early 2000s indie music video. It was peak cozy couple aesthetic, and honestly, the pumpkins never stood a chance.
BUT HOLD ON—cue the dramatic music—there’s a family plot twist. Just last week, Dylan’s sibling, Julz, threw a little shade the family’s way by claiming Dylan hasn’t talked to them in a whole year. This tea directly contradicts Dylan’s recent interview claims and now we don’t know what’s more confusing: family drama or trying to make sense of Dylan’s hair in Teen Wolf.
Anyway, love is alive, PDA is back, and Dylan O’Brien’s lips are booked and busy.
Wanna see the smooch for yourself? Of course you do. Go get your eyeballs blessed below!
