Glen Powell, best known for his roles in major Hollywood productions, is reportedly seeing actress Michelle Randolph, according to an insider. News regarding Glen Powell dating Michelle Randolph surfaced after reports indicated that the pair have chosen to keep their relationship private for the time being.
Early Signs of Romance Between Powell and Randolph
Powell, 37, and Randolph, 28, have been discretely exploring their connection since October, as shared by a source close to the duo.
“They started seeing where things would go around October and have been trying to keep it under the radar for almost two months now.”
The two actors have mainly kept their outings away from public attention, enjoying each other’s company without making formal announcements.
Their interactions caught public interest last month after a TikTok video showed them dancing together at a bar in Powell’s hometown of Austin, Texas. Speculation about their relationship gained further traction, but the couple has refrained from confirming details to the media or fans.
The Nature of Their Relationship
Though the relationship has sparked curiosity, the insider emphasized that Powell currently views it as light and not overly serious.
“[He] does not want to be public with anyone or be in a serious relationship right now.”
Both Powell and Randolph are described as having fun together, without rushing into anything official or highly public-facing.
A significant factor in their closeness is their social ties. According to a source, the Running Man actor met Randolph because she
“is friends with his sister Leslie and runs in a similar circle in L.A.”
Their overlapping circles and mutual friends in Los Angeles contributed to their growing rapport.
Bonding Over Shared Experiences
The pair’s increasing time together coincided with breaks in their respective work schedules.
“They have been spending more time together in the last few weeks since they both have a break from filming,”
the source noted. Randolph, who has been in Texas working on the series Landman for Paramount+, shares Powell’s appreciation for the state.
“She’s spent a lot of time in Texas this last year filming [Landman on Paramount+] and has that in common with Glen. Being from California, Michelle has really grown to love Texas, and they have bonded over it.”
Connections With Family and Friends
Although the romance is still new, Randolph has already met some of Powell’s family members.
“[She has met his family] a few times, and they all think she is sweet and lovely.”
Additionally, she extended an invitation to Powell for her sister Cassie Randolph’s wedding to musician Brighton Reinhardt in Costa Rica, scheduled for Friday, December 5. It remains uncertain if Powell will attend the celebration, which will bring together numerous close friends and family members.
Powell and Randolph’s Previous Relationships
Before connecting with Randolph, Powell was most recently in a relationship with model Gigi Paris from 2020 until 2023. Their breakup occurred as rumors circled about his friendship with actress Sydney Sweeney. Both Powell and Sweeney have stated that their on-screen chemistry and rumored romance were simply efforts to promote their romantic comedy, Anyone But You. Powell told The New York Times in 2024 that their marketing tactics were effective but denied any real-life romantic involvement with Sweeney.
Prior to his relationship with Paris, Powell dated entertainment correspondent Renee Bargh from 2018 to 2019 and actress Nina Dobrev in 2017. Michelle Randolph similarly has her share of public relationships, having dated Wizards of Waverly Place actor Gregg Sulkin from 2018 to 2023.
Keeping Their Romance Low-Profile
An insider previously mentioned that Powell had been
“not interested in having another public relationship at this time, especially after how everyone reacted to his friendship with Sydney.”
Powell’s experiences with intense public scrutiny have made him cautious about putting his romantic life in the spotlight.
Regarding his current approach to relationships, the source explained,
“He doesn’t want that to ever be the focus of his life,”
and further shared,
“He’s not in a rush. He’s a romantic [and] has talked about wanting to find The One. But for now, work is taking up most of his focus.”
What This Means for Powell and Randolph
For now, Glen Powell and Michelle Randolph appear content with keeping things low-key, prioritizing their careers while occasionally spending time together as their schedules allow. With Powell focused on acting projects and Randolph connected to both California and Texas through work, their paths have aligned naturally for the present moment. Whether their relationship will become more public or serious remains to be seen, but their comfortable, mutual understanding sets the tone for their current chapter.
