After three seasons, the official “ships” — that is, fandom-approved TV relationships — of the Netflix teen drama “Outer Banks” seem solidified. There’s John B (Chase Stokes) and Sarah Cameron (Madelyn Cline); JJ Maybank (Rudy Pankow) and Kiara Carrera (Madison Bailey); and Pope Heyward (Jonathan Daviss) and Cleo Anderson (Carlacia Grant) all coupled up going into "Outer Banks" season 4, which debuts on Netflix on Thursday, October 10. But two of its young stars are actually rooting for an entirely different pair this season.
In a recent interview with People, “OBX” star Madison Bailey joked that her character Kie’s budding romance with fellow Pogue JJ was "going to be the death of my Kiara gay agenda.” (The 25-year-old actress publicly came out as queer via a TikTok video in May 2020.)
