American actor Charlie Bushnell, a young star in the making, made waves of queries about his girlfriend following his prom date pictures on Instagram. However, rumors exist that the “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” actor and his secret partner have broken up.
On top of that, fans are shipping Bushnell with his co-star Dior Goodjohn as they show an impeccable chemistry off-screen. So, is it true that the two are actually in a relationship? Let’s get the details in this article.
Charlie Bushnell Girlfriend: Who Is He Dating Now?
With immense fame within a short time, the charming 5 feet 9 inches tall actor became a heartthrob that brought prying eyes into his relationship profile. Amid that curiosity, Bushnell rang the alarm after he posted a picture with a beautiful lady whom he took to prom as his date.
It was in May 2022 when the Diary of a Future President actor made an Instagram post from his senior prom party with his then-alleged girlfriend, Maddie Hana. Also, on his IG post, she commented “dapper as hell.”
Soon after, eagle-eyed fans took a surf over the social media to find other adorable pictures of the duo.
Surfing through Hana’s Instagram (@maddie.hana), in one of her posts from December 2022, Bushnell has made a comment that reads, “i love you.”
Moreover, in July 2023, Charlie took to Instagram to share pictures from his holiday in Greece and Paris. One of his carousel posts featured a mysterious girl whom he didn’t tag, but with appearances, it looked as if she was none other than Maddie.
While the hint was subtle, it confirmed that the two were in a relationship.

Did Charlie Bushnell And His Girlfriend, Maddie, Break Up?
Even if Bushnell and his partner, Maddie Hana, are yet to address rumors regarding their break up, fans allege that the two are not together anymore. This became evident after the two stopped following each other on Instagram and have since deleted their pictures from their respective accounts.
On the other, some hopeful fans theorize that the duo is taking their time off, given that he still has a picture (though face not revealed) of Hana on his Instagram.
Are Charlie And Dior Goodjohn Dating?
Ever since Charlie and Dior Goodjohn co-starred in the fantasy TV series Percy Jackson and the Olympians starring Walker Scobell, rumors have it that the two are more than just co-actors and friends.
In the series, Bushnell portrays Luke Castellan, the son of Hermes, while Goodjohn appears as Clarisse La Rue, the daughter of Ares.
While their characters do not have any on-screen romance, the two actors off-screen are very close. In January 2024, a video of the two surfaced on TikTok where they were in a gym and posed for a video together.
Even if nothing significant for pointing out their dating story is out, the Hollywood history of cozy co-stars turning into a couple makes it compelling for the time being.

Was Bushnell In A Relationship With Tess Romero?
In 2020, before Charlie’s mysterious girlfriend made headlines, there were swings of rumors regarding his relationship with his co-star Tess Romero.
The two played on-screen siblings in the comedy-drama series Diary of A Future President. However, it was their chemistry off the screen that raised the eyebrows of fans if they were dating. The American actor often posted pictures and IG stories with Romero, and vice-versa.
Moreover, in March 2021, he wished Tess on her birthday with a carousel filled with behind-the-scenes moments with her. On her turn, she also shared adorable pictures from her moments with Charlie wishing him a birthday in June 2021, and wrote, “Chark!! happy birthday!! thanks for being one of my favorite people.”
However, the two never confirmed if they ever got into a relationship, and their bonding seemed purely platonic.
Gay Rumors Of Charlie Bushnell: How Did It Rise?
A celebrity status comes with perks of fame and fandom, while it is undeniably true that it also has drawbacks of rumors. Such one for Bushnell was that there were rumors of him being gay.
It came after he portrayed Roberto “Bobby” Cañero-Reed, in the series Diary of a Future President (2020-21), where his character is gay, and is coming to terms with his sexuality. Probably, the realistic approach to acting made many believe that he was gay in real life too.
During an interview with What’s on Disney Plus, Charlie Bushnell talked about his experience of playing the character Bobby and stated it gave him immense “love and support” from the LGBTQIA+ community for his role. He said,
“I feel so honored that I get to play this character. The love and support I have received from the LGBTQ+ community from all over the world has been incredible and humbling.”
Further, the actor added that it gave inspiration for many to come out of the closet,
“I’ve received messages from people sharing their stories with me and telling me how much they see themselves in Bobby… with some even saying that the mirror scene gave them courage and inspired them to come out.”
