While his screen presence has made him a global sensation, Pedro Pascal's private life has remained largely out of view for majority of his rise to stardom. Amid recent sightings with Rafael Olarra, attention has again turned to his past connections and unanswered questions.
Pedro Pascal is a Chilean-born American actor known for his work in television and film. Despite his high-profile visibility, he has never publicly confirmed a serious romantic relationship.
Pedro Pascal's Rise And Public Image
Pedro Pascal built his reputation through performances in television dramas including Narcos and Game of Thrones. He later led The Mandalorian and most recently starred in The Last of Us, further strengthening his profile. Online attention has grown alongside these projects, with social media users describing him as 'unbearably attractive'.
In a lie detector test for Vanity Fair, Pascal acknowledged that he has looked at Instagram accounts dedicated to his heartthrob status when feeling low. During the same appearance, he joked that 'daddy is a state of mind', referencing a nickname often used by fans.
Are Pedro Pascal And Rafael Olarra Dating?
Recent photographs have shown Pascal spending time with Faena Creative Director Rafael Olarra. The pair were seen heading to lunch and attending a screening of Wuthering Heights at a cinema in New York. Days later, they were photographed again in Beverly Hills with their arms around each other's waists, and Pascal resting his mouth and chin on Olarra's shoulder.
When approached by a photographer, they reportedly declined to comment. No statement has been issued confirming the nature of their relationship. Pascal has long been known for keeping his personal life private, and there has been no official confirmation of a romance.
Jennifer Aniston And Dinner Rumours
Pascal was recently linked to Friends actress Jennifer Aniston following a 2025 three-hour dinner at the Sunset Tower Hotel's Tower Bar in Los Angeles. Pascal later clarified that they are just friends, ending the rumours.
Lena Headey And Game Of Thrones Talk
In 2014, fans suggested an on-set romance between Pascal and his Game of Thrones co-star Lena Headey. Interest intensified after Headey posted a photograph on Instagram captioned 'Sunshine love'. The image led to further online discussion about their closeness.
Pascal addressed the matter in an interview with The Daily Mail. He said, 'Lena is one of my [favorite people]...She is so funny and so smart, such a good person, a good friend and a good mother.' He added that anyone who meets her is likely to develop a crush, clarifying that their relationship was friendship rather than romance.
Robin Tunney, Maria Dizzia And Earlier Links
Rumours also surfaced in 2015 when Pascal attended events with Robin Tunney. He had appeared on her television series The Mentalist, which added to the attention. At the time, Tunney was engaged to Nick Marmet, and reports later indicated that her relationship with Pascal was platonic.
Earlier still, The Sun reported that Pascal and Maria Dizzia were dating after appearing together in an episode of Law & Order in the late 1990s. Neither confirmed the claim. Dizzia later formed a relationship with British playwright Will Eno.
