A match made in Hollywood! Emma Roberts and Garrett Hedlund have kept a relatively low profile since they started dating, but appear stronger than ever since the arrival of their son, Rhodes, in December 2020.
The couple were first linked in March 2019 after the Scream Queens alum split from her ex-fiancé,Evan Peters, whom she had dated off and on since 2012. “Garrett and Emma have been friends, but this is new, casual, and just a couple of weeks old,” a source told Us Weekly at the time.
Shortly after Us confirmed the news that they were seeing each other, the Nerve star opened up about what it’s like to date in the public eye. “It’s hard enough to be with someone by yourself, let alone with an audience,” she told Cosmopolitan in May 2019. “Growing up is hard.
Sometimes it makes me sad that I can’t have a private moment. Because of Twitter and Instagram, there’s a whole other element where everybody can comment on what you’re doing, and no one knows the real story. That’s hard.”
In January 2020, another insider told Us that the duo were “having fun and enjoying each other,” adding that they weren’t yet discussing anything more serious. That seemed to change quickly, though, because in June 2020, Us confirmed that they were expecting.
