Outer Banks stars Chase Stokes and Madelyn Cline’s relationship may have not lasted, but their character onscreen romance is forever.
Stokes and Cline portray John B Rutledge and Sarah Cameron, respectively, on the Netflix series, which premiered in April 2020. John B is a Pogue a.k.a. from the wrong side of the tracks, while Sarah is a Kook a.k.a. a wealthy member of the North Carolina community.
Despite their opposite upbringings, John B and Sarah fall for each other, and throughout the series, their romance is put to the test while hunting for treasure with John B’s Pogue for Life crew.
The sparks between Stokes and Cline eventually flew behind the camera, as well, and the duo confirmed they were dating in June 2020. Us Weekly confirmed in November 2021 that the actors split shortly after season 2 of OBX came out.
While Cline and Stokes’ relationship may have fizzled, Sarah and John B continue to be a fan-favorite pairing on the action-adventure series, which was renewed for a fifth and final season in November 2024.
