From the drama at Baird College to the drama of adulthood, Tell Me Lies has kept its viewers hooked for three seasons now. Series leads Grace Van Patten and Jackson White are skillfully unraveling their characters’ turbulent love story over the course of eight years, but the co-stars’ real-life relationship is nowhere near toxic.
For anyone who isn’t already aware, Grace and Jackson are dating IRL, and the couple have a much healthier dynamic than their characters do on screen. During an August 2025 interview with People, the Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox actress described her and Jackson’s romance as “very and grounded and easy.”
“And he’s such a dedicated, ambitious human that I learn from every day, and he’s so extremely supportive,” Grace gushed. The duo has been together since 2022.
