Madelyn Cline and Influencer Henry Smith Split After Several Months Together
Madelyn Cline and social media personality Henry Smith have ended their relationship after dating for several months, according to reports.
The Outer Banks actress, 28, and Smith, 29, were first publicly linked earlier this year, with a source confirming their romance to PEOPLE in April. The relationship rumors began circulating after the pair were reportedly spotted spending time together at a live podcast event in San Diego.
The event, Brooke and Connor Make a Podcast Live, was hosted by influencers Connor Wood and Brooke Averick, who are friends of Smith. A photo shared by celebrity gossip account DeuxMoi showing Cline and Smith together at the event sparked speculation that the two were more than just friends.
Following news of their breakup, fans noticed that Cline and Smith had unfollowed each other on Instagram. TMZ was the first outlet to report that the couple had separated.
Representatives for both Cline and Smith were contacted for comments regarding the split, but no official statements were immediately released.
Relationship Became Public Through Social Media
Although their romance was relatively private at first, Cline and Smith eventually appeared together in several social media posts, especially on TikTok.
Smith, who has built a large online following of more than 1.1 million followers, frequently shared videos featuring moments from his personal life. Once their relationship became public, Cline appeared in several of his posts, giving fans a glimpse into their time together.
One of their most talked-about appearances came during the Coachella music festival in Palm Springs, California.
During the April festival weekend, Smith uploaded a TikTok video featuring Cline as the pair enjoyed the event together. In the clip, the two danced side by side on a dock while Swedish pop singer Zara Larsson’s song “Lush Life” played in the background.
Fans quickly noticed the playful nature of the video, especially because the song includes lyrics referencing having a “crush,” which many viewers interpreted as fitting with the couple’s new relationship.
The post attracted attention from followers who were excited to see Cline sharing more personal moments outside of her acting career.
Their Playful TikTok Moments
Another memorable moment between the pair came later that month when Smith shared a humorous TikTok video involving a frozen yogurt order.
In the clip, Cline and Smith were seen opening their dessert order from Go Greek, laughing after discovering that the actress had accidentally ordered far more yogurt than they originally planned.:max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():focal(749x0:751x2):format(webp)/Madelyn-Cline-15th-Annual-NFL-Honors-2026-Henry-Smith-Beyond-Fest-2025-063026-45b5a530d4c2423493393b8d28936db8.jpg)
The couple had intended to order one 24-ounce container, but Cline mistakenly purchased two 48-ounce bowls instead — resulting in nearly three pounds of frozen yogurt.
Smith joked about the unexpected amount of dessert while the two showed their “sweet treat” to the camera.
The lighthearted video gave fans a look at the couple’s playful dynamic and became one of several social media moments that documented their relationship.
Cline’s Previous Romance Rumors
Before dating Smith, Cline had been connected to other high-profile figures.
The actress was previously rumored to have a connection with Prince Constantine-Alexios of Greece after the two were reportedly seen together at a restaurant in New York City during the fall of the previous year.
Photos of the pair spending time together led to speculation about a possible romance, although neither Cline nor Constantine-Alexios publicly addressed the rumors.
Cline became internationally recognized after starring as Sarah Cameron in Netflix’s hit series Outer Banks. Her role in the popular teen drama turned her into one of the platform’s most recognizable young stars and placed her in the spotlight both professionally and personally.
Henry Smith’s Online Success
Outside of his relationship with Cline, Smith has developed a strong presence as a digital creator.
With more than one million followers on TikTok, Smith has become known for his entertaining videos and influencer content.
His popularity grew further when he was recognized in PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive 2025 Readers’ Choice poll.
Smith won the title of PEOPLE’s Sexiest TikTok Star, defeating several other viral creators, including Giovanni Luciano, known online as @giovanniskitchen, Eric Sedeno of ricotaquito, and Bradley Jimenez, also known as bradtheboxer.
The recognition highlighted his growing influence on social media and his ability to connect with a large online audience.
Fans React to the Split
The breakup has attracted attention from fans of both Cline and Smith, especially because the couple had recently appeared happy together in social media posts.
Many followers had enjoyed seeing the actress share a different side of her life through Smith’s videos, as the pair often appeared relaxed and playful together.
However, neither person has publicly discussed the reason behind the breakup, leaving fans to speculate based only on social media changes and reports.
The decision to unfollow each other on Instagram has been viewed by many as a sign that the relationship has officially ended, although the two have chosen to keep details about their separation private.
What’s Next for Madelyn Cline
For Cline, the breakup comes during an important period in her career.
The actress is preparing for the release of the final season of Outer Banks, the show that made her a household name. After years of playing Sarah Cameron, Cline has spoken about the emotional experience of saying goodbye to the character and the series.
She has also continued exploring new opportunities outside the Netflix drama, expanding her career beyond the role that introduced her to millions of viewers.
While her relationship with Smith may have ended, Cline remains focused on her professional projects, friendships, and future opportunities.
Meanwhile, Smith continues building his career as a content creator and maintaining his strong presence online.
Although their romance was relatively short-lived, the relationship attracted significant attention because of both stars’ growing popularity. For now, both Cline and Smith appear to be moving forward separately while continuing their individual journeys in entertainment and social media.
