- Gavin Casalegno has recently revealed to the world that he is married to Cheyanne King.
- Casalegno once opened up about whether or not he would date a fan.
- The Vampire Diaries actor has been private about his relationship with King prior to their marriage.
Much to the combined shock, excitement, and at least a little disappointment of women across the world, Gavin Casalegno is now married. He rose to fame for his role as Jeremiah, one of the two love interests of the lead character, Belly (Lola Tung) in the popular Amazon Prime TV series, The Summer I Turned Pretty.
Before getting married to his girlfriend, Cheyanne King, Casalegno was in a long-term relationship with a celebrity. His rising fame has taught the actor to safeguard the privacy of his love life. It is not uncommon for celebrities to date their fans. Similarly, it is also not that rare for them to be asked if they would date their fans. Casalegno remains no exception to this.
Gavin Casalegno’s Honest Thoughts on Whether or Not He Would Date a Fan
The love life of celebrities is one of the most discussed topics in pop culture. Whether it is a rumored fling, someone tying the knot with their partner after six months, or calling it quits after two decades of marriage, fans are eager to know anything and everything about the stars they love regardless of how big or small it is.
Gavin Casalegno, Lola Tung, and Christopher Briney gained stardom overnight, thanks to the show The Summer I Turned Pretty based on Jenny Han’s eponymous novel trilogy. Briney and Casalegno quickly gained popularity among netizens as fans could not help but gush these young heartthrobs at any chance they would get.
As much as fans might be interested in dating Casalegno, the same cannot be said about the actor who once blatantly denied that he had any interest in dating one of his fans during an interview with Cosmopolitan. He said:
Honestly, probably not. I think I would prefer dating someone who isn’t in the social media space at all. I think that would lead to a lot less problems, to be blunt!
As blunt as that is, it is true because social media or public attention in general really does more harm than good for celebrity relationships these days. That said, it is good to see that The Vampire Diaries actor has learned this lesson early on in his life.
Gavin Casalegno’s Marriage to Cheyanne King Has Come as a Shock to Many

The news has quite literally taken the internet by storm as fans express their varied sentiments about him getting married.
