Pedro Pascal’s Dating History: From Girlfriends To Romantic Rumours

The 'Last Of Us' actor has become a major public obsession.

Chilean-born American actor Pedro Pascal has become a major heartthrob after years in the spotlight.

From his performances in on Narcos and Game of Thrones to The Mandalorian and most recently, The Last of Us, the internet is well and truly thirsting over after this talented actor.

Twitter has officially agreed he is ‘unbearably attractive’ and even Pascal has noticed the attention.

In an infamous lie detector test for Vanity Fair he admitted that he looks at Instagram accounts about him being a heartthrob when he’s feeling down (although this was followed by lots of laughter, so it was all in good fun).  He also said “daddy is a state of mind”, adding fuel to the ‘internet daddy’ label fans have given him.

In a more recent interview for The Hollywood Reporter’s drama actor roundtable, he suggested the ‘daddy’ label was related to his roles, noting that in real life he is not a parent, “And I’m not gonna be a daddy!”

That gives us some idea of his current family status. So the next logical question is whether Pedro Pascal is dating, married or even sworn off relationships entirely?

Let’s take a look at the people he’s been tied to over the years, from most recent right back to his early days on TV.

In 2015, Pedro Pascal was linked to actress Robin Tunney, best known for her role on The Mentalist. They actually worked together on the show in 2014, with Pascal playing the role of Agent Marcus Pike for 7 episodes.

They were also photographed together getting food multiple times and even attended a few red carpet events together, including the 2015 Emmy Awards. 

While many speculated about Pascal and Tunney’s connection, it’s more likely she was just a friend rather than a girlfriend, because Tunney has been engaged to interior designer Nick Marmet since 2012.

Lena Headey

In 2014, Pascal was linked with Headey, his co-star on Game of Thrones. Headey was playing the power-hungry Cersei Lannister while Pascal was cast as Dornish prince Oberyn Martell.

The two have never officially confirmed they were partners.

According to The Daily Mail, Pascal opened up about their friendship in a Reddit Q&A, saying, “Lena is one of my [favourite people].”

“She is so funny and so smart, such a good person, a good friend and a good mother, I think everyone on that set and anyone who comes in contact with her develops an instant crush,” he added.

“Talk about male or female, you’re going to get a crush on her easy.”

Headey also shared a selfie of the two of them (in which they looked very close) captioning it, “Sunshine love”.

However, she has had two long-term partners since then, including Dan Cadan (the father of her daughter Teddy) and American actor Marc Menchaca, who she married in October 2022.

Maria Dizzia

British paper The Sun reported that Dizzia and Pascal were dating back in the early 90s. The pair starred in Law And Order, appearing in one episode together where Pascal played ‘Tito Cabassa’ who was the partner of Dizzia’s character ‘Sugar’.

But the relationship between them didn’t last, and both Pascal and Dizzia have gone on to other romantic partnerships since then.

In fact, Dizzia is now married to a British playwright, Will Eno, and is best known for her role on Orange is The New Black.

The Mystery Of Pedro Pascal’s Romantic Life

While some celeb dating histories have a lot of detail (like Julia Roberts or Leonardo DiCaprio), it seems Pedro Pascal keeps his private life very private. It’s hard to even tell if some of the people he’s been linked to have actually been girlfriends. So all bets are off on when we’ll hear about his next (or current) partner.

But if it’s any consolation, from what’s known it doesn’t seem Pedro Pascal has a wife (yet).
