He is reportedly dating Lauren Searle, a model, artist, and social media influencer.

The two began dating in 2020, and in October of that year, they made their relationship public by posting now-deleted cosy photos on Instagram from what appeared to be a camping trip.

In 2020 and 2021, Lauren shared photos of them together on Instagram, but those posts are now deleted. This has led fans to speculate about the status of their relationship, as the couple tends to keep their private life out of the spotlight. However, there have been no confirmed reports that they have broken up.

Peyton List (2017–2019)

Cameron Monaghan and Peyton List were in a relationship for around two years. They first met while filming the 2017 Canadian movie Anthem of a Teenage Prophet. The two soon started sharing photos on social media, sparking speculation among fans about their romance.

The couple went public in September 2017, posting cosy pictures from a trip to Disneyland. Peyton later confirmed their relationship during a 2018 interview with the BUILD Series, explaining:

The whole cast, we all shared a trailer and were all in the same hotel. It was a small town, two and a half hours away from Vancouver, so we all really got to know each other, and all became so close. And then, sort of in the middle of it, Cameron and I started realizing we liked each other and started dating after.

Peyton also praised her partner’s understanding nature. She said:

He's so understanding, which is so nice, and I am too. I can't imagine having someone who is not an actor, but I'm sure they would understand eventually, but it would be difficult.

In January 2019, Cameron confirmed their breakup in a now-deleted tweet, with E! News also reporting the split. The couple ended things amicably and have remained friends since.
