Is Jenna Ortega dating anyone?

As of 2023, Jenna appears to be single and not dating anyone.

The actress is private about her romantic life and has remained tight-lipped about relationships, but did open up about her approaching to dating when she spoke to fellow actor Dax Shepard on the Armchair Expert podcast, telling him that she's not ready to date yet as her career remains her focus.

"I almost don't even find myself interested," Jenna explained, "but I think a big part of it is self-esteem. Like, I don't think I'm ready to be that vulnerable or trusting with someone."

She told Dax that she's dated in the past: "I was in a relationship for a couple of years, but I stopped when things got too hectic. If there's one thing I'm going to focus on – which is probably something I need to change – it's gonna be my work."

Who has Jenna Ortega dated?

In 2018, Jenna was linked to fellow actor Asher Angel after they attended Just Jared’s Halloween Party together and dressed up as former couple Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson.

She was also romantically linked to singer Jacob Sartorius after she appeared in his ‘Chapstick’ music video, where they shared a kiss.

However, Jenna set the record straight on her rumoured ‘ex-boyfriends’ during a podcast appearance in 2019.

She said on the Just Between Us podcast that she had never actually dated any of the boys she was linked to online.

When asked what the craziest thing she ever heard about herself was, she said: “Probably relationships. According to the internet, I dated like six guys, [but I] dated none of them.”
