Dalton Gomez and Maika Monroe have made their relationship Instagram official. On Sunday, June 9, the “It Follows” actress, 31, shared a series of photos on Instagram, confirming her romance with the real estate agent, who was previously married to pop star Ariana Grande.
Monroe’s post, simply captioned with a star emoji, began with a photo of her standing on her tiptoes to kiss Gomez, 28, in a crosswalk. The couple looked happy and relaxed, marking their first official appearance together on her Instagram grid.
In another photo from the same post, the couple is seen snuggled up together in front of a sea view, both dressed in comfortable, all-black outfits. The golden-hour shot captured the couple’s intimate moment, further solidifying their relationship status.
This Instagram reveal comes after months of speculation and sightings of the couple together. Monroe had previously shared pictures of Gomez on her Instagram Stories, but those posts had expired, making this their first permanent appearance on her profile.
The couple was first linked in October 2023 when they were spotted kissing in photos obtained by TMZ. Since then, they have been seen together in public several times, including a PDA-filled sighting at Los Angeles’ LAX airport last month.
Before dating Monroe, Gomez was married to Ariana Grande. The couple’s relationship became serious during the pandemic, leading to their engagement in December 2020 and marriage in May 2021. However, they finalized their divorce in March 2024 after separating in July 2023.
Monroe, on the other hand, was previously in a relationship with “Stranger Things” star Joe Keery. The former couple made their first red carpet appearance together in October 2017 and separated sometime between 2022 and 2023. Keery recently spoke about their breakup in a June 6 interview with Variety, mentioning how he focused on his work after their split.
The timing of Monroe and Gomez’s Instagram reveal is interesting, as it coincides with Ariana Grande’s public appearance with her new boyfriend, Ethan Slater. Grande and Slater were spotted attending the Stanley Cup Final together, further indicating that both Grande and Gomez have moved on with their respective new partners.
Monroe’s Instagram post has garnered significant attention, with fans and followers expressing their excitement and support for the new couple. The actress, known for her roles in horror-thrillers like “It Follows,” “Watcher,” and “The Guest,” seems to be enjoying her new relationship with Gomez.
Gomez, a real estate agent, has also been in the spotlight due to his previous marriage to Grande. The couple’s relationship was highly publicized, especially during the pandemic when they spent a lot of time together. Their relationship became Instagram official when Grande celebrated her birthday with a post featuring Gomez and her dog. They later got engaged and married in a private ceremony at Grande’s California home.
Despite their split, both Grande and Gomez have moved on and seem to be happy in their new relationships. Grande is currently dating her “Wicked” co-star Ethan Slater, while Gomez is enjoying his time with Monroe.
The new couple’s Instagram reveal has sparked a lot of interest, with fans eager to see more of their relationship. Monroe’s followers have been quick to comment on the post, expressing their happiness for the actress and her new beau.
As Monroe and Gomez continue to share their journey together, fans can expect more adorable and intimate moments from the couple. Their Instagram official status marks a new chapter in their lives, and it will be interesting to see how their relationship unfolds in the public eye.
For now, Monroe and Gomez seem to be enjoying their time together, and their Instagram post is a testament to their growing bond. With both of them having moved on from their previous relationships, they appear to be ready to embrace their new romance and share it with the world.
