From his early days as a Disney Channel heartthrob to his modern indie-rock era with [The Driver Era], fans have tracked Ross Lynch's love life with intense curiosity. When you grow up in front of millions on Austin & Ally and Netflix's Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, every public outing, red carpet appearance, and social media post becomes fuel for speculation.
Navigating high-profile romances in the public eye isn't easy. Ross has experienced long-term relationships, intense online fandom scrutiny, and plenty of groundless rumors. Let's break down his documented relationships, separate fact from fiction regarding his co-stars, and look at where things stand today.
The Early Years: Morgan Larson
Before the massive Disney fame fully took over his daily schedule, Ross was linked to dancer Morgan Larson. The pair reportedly crossed paths around 2012 through shared industry circles and dance connections.
While they kept things largely out of the mainstream media headlines, followers of the actor's early career tracked their connection. It remains one of his earliest acknowledged relationships from before his transition into global teen idol status.
The Courtney Eaton Era
In March 2015, Ross began dating Australian actress and model Courtney Eaton, known for her role in Mad Max: Fury Road. The two met at an R5 concert in West Hollywood, sparking a connection that lasted for over two years.
This relationship brought Ross his first major taste of intense fan friction. Because he was still actively starring as Austin Moon on Disney Channel, a vocal faction of fans struggled to separate his on-screen persona from his real life. Courtney faced harsh online backlash and targeted social media harassment.
Ross didn't stay silent about the toxicity. He publicly defended Courtney on social media, trying to curb the negative behavior from overly invested viewers. Despite weathering that storm together, the couple quietly parted ways in late 2017. The breakup was amicable, and they maintained mutual respect, with Courtney even celebrating milestones with friends in the years following.
The Longest Chapter: Jaz Sinclair
Ross's longest and most high-profile relationship began in 2018 on the Vancouver set of Netflix's Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. He played Harvey Kinkle, while actress Jaz Sinclair played Rosalind Walker.
What started as an on-set friendship blossomed into a romance. By 2019, the pair regularly shared glimpses of their lives together, traveling to fashion weeks in Paris and posting candid moments on social media.
Just like his previous relationship, Jaz faced unfair online vitriol from a subset of fans who shipped Ross with other co-stars. Ross addressed the hate directly, asking his audience to mature and respect his personal happiness. The couple spent four years together, becoming a favorite pairing for indie music fans as Ross toured the world with his brother Rocky in The Driver Era.
In early 2022, reports confirmed that Ross and Jaz had split up after roughly four years. The breakup was handled privately, and both moved forward professionally without public drama.
Separating Fact from Fiction: Popular Co-Star Rumors
Because Ross has spent his entire adult life starring opposite famous actresses, internet sleuths frequently invent romances that never happened.
- Laura Marano: Fans of Austin & Ally desperately wanted Austin and Ally to date in real life. Despite brilliant on-screen chemistry and an emotional series finale, Ross and Laura have repeatedly clarified that they are strictly platonic friends and colleagues.
- Maia Mitchell: Starring together in the Teen Beach Movie franchise led to widespread rumors of a behind-the-scenes romance. Neither ever confirmed a relationship, and industry sources noted they were simply close peers navigating Disney's ecosystem.
- Kiernan Shipka: Following his casting in Sabrina, tabloids frequently linked Ross to his primary on-screen love interest. This rumor was entirely false, as Ross was already involved with Jaz Sinclair during the show's production.
