“[Madelyn and Pete] “I was hoping to keep a low profile for a while, especially because Madelyn is a very private person,” the insider said. “But they spent a lot of time together and developed a strong bond in a short period of time.”

The source added that the two have a lot in common: “Pete loves Madelyn's dry sense of humor, which he finds adorable because he's the same way.”

Months later, another insider told Us that the couple's relationship was “going really well,” but they were “trying their best to maintain a low-key romance” after both “dated people in the public eye before.” This time, Cline and Davidson hoped to “maintain more privacy.”

Before her romance with Davidson, Cline dated her Outer Banks Costar Chase Stokes from 2020 to 2021. (Stokes has since moved on as a country singer Kelsea Ballerini.) Davidson, for his part, has been linked to stars including Ariana Grande And Kim Kardashian.

After dating Stokes, Cline shared the valuable lesson she learned about dating in public.

“I'm a really private person. There is a part of me that is there for me and no one else. But in hindsight, making my relationship public made it everyone else's business,” she told Cosmopolitan in February. “During the separation I became aware of the negative side effects it had. I realized that I had let people in and then felt like I couldn't get anyone out. It just hit me like a freight train. I wanted us both to move on and be happy. People see the need for sides. There are no sides – there is no winning or losing in a breakup.”
