As season three of Stranger Things is finally upon us, we take a closer look at the brilliant actress who plays Nancy Wheeler.
American actress Natalia Dyer shot to fame after Stranger Things first aired on Netflix in 2016. Becoming a well-known name alongside the likes of Millie Bobby Brown, Caleb McLaughlin, Finn Wolfhard, and Noah Schnapp.
Despite reaching global stardom, Natalia has managed to keep her private life out of the spotlight and rarely posts on Instagram as a way to uphold her privacy. With just 83 posts on her profile @nattyiceofficial, the brunette beauty has a whopping 3.7 million followers.
Now, as season three of the hit series is finally in our lives, we take a look at the actress who plays Nancy Wheeler as well as her relationship with co-star Charlie Heaton.

Natalia was born in Nashville, Tennessee, on 13th January, 1997 – making her 22 years old.
She studied at the Nashville School of the Arts, before pursuing a career in acting and moved to New York between 2014 - 2015 to attend NYU.
In 2006 Natalia and co-star Charlie Heaton sparked rumours they were dating, after going away on holiday together.
It wasn't until December 2017 the pair seemingly confirmed their romance, when they attended the swanky Fashion Awards in London together hand in hand.
They have since shared sweet snaps of each other on Instagram and have pretty much confirmed they are dating IRL.
