Born and raised in Goose Creek, South Carolina, Madelyn Cline has built her career on dedication and grit. Before becoming a familiar face on Netflix’s “Outer Banks” as Sarah Cameron, she was just a small-town girl with a big dream of making it in Hollywood. Her journey wasn’t easy – far from it – but her hard work and resilience eventually paid off, propelling her into the spotlight.
What truly sets Madelyn apart isn’t just her striking screen presence. It’s the authenticity she brings to every role, making even the most privileged characters feel grounded and genuine. Whether she’s captivating audiences in “Glass Onion” or sharing scenes with her “Outer Banks” castmates, there’s an emotional honesty in her performances that’s hard to fake.
Despite her rising fame, Madelyn is intentional about drawing the line between her public persona and private life. She offers fans small glimpses on Instagram, sharing moments that feel real – never overly curated – yet she’s careful to keep most details of her personal world under wraps. In an industry where oversharing has become the norm, her sense of privacy stands out.
Love and Lessons
Naturally, curiosity about her relationships has followed her, especially after fans saw sparks fly between Madelyn and her “Outer Banks” co-star Chase Stokes. Their on-screen chemistry spilled off-camera in 2020, and for about a year and a half, their real-life romance became a favorite story for fans. When they decided to part ways in late 2021, both managed to keep things respectful and professional – no small feat when you’re working side by side on a hit show.
Following her split from Stokes, Madelyn was linked to musician Jackson Guthy. Their relationship, which quietly ran from mid-2022 to mid-2023, was kept mostly under the radar, with the two making only rare public appearances together.
There were also rumors about brief connections with DJ Zack Bia in late 2021 and early 2022. They were spotted a few times out together, fueling speculation, but neither ever confirmed anything beyond friendship. As for the gossip about Pete Davidson, or whispers involving other actors like Ross Butler and Noah Centineo, those seem to be nothing more than internet chatter born from being seen at the same Hollywood parties.
Madelyn herself has addressed her approach to relationships candidly. In a 2021 interview, she shared, “The most important thing is finding someone who respects your work and understands when you need space. Balance is everything.” It’s a perspective that speaks to her grounded nature – she knows what truly matters, both in love and life.
On Her Own Terms
Now, at 26, Madelyn seems laser-focused on her craft. With “Outer Banks” still going strong and new film projects lined up, she’s in a period of major career growth. Those close to her say that as her star has risen, so too has her instinct for prioritizing genuine connections over relationships that seem built for headlines.

If fans are wondering about her current status, as of early 2024, it appears Madelyn is single – and perfectly content keeping it that way. She’s set on pouring her energy into roles that challenge and excite her. With her strong sense of self and a willingness to put in the work, Madelyn Cline continues to prove she’s more than just a breakout star – she’s carving out a thoughtful, independent path in Hollywood and inspiring others to do the same.
