Isabel Machado has been dating The Summer I Turned Pretty star Christopher Briney since 2021, with the couple first meeting at Pace University in New York. The two were friends and roommates before their relationship turned romantic, and they've been together ever since. Fans got their first glimpse of them as a couple when Briney brought Machado as his date to the premiere of the hit Prime Video series.
Machado, who grew up in Chicago, studied acting at Pace and graduated with a BFA in 2020. She's more than just Briney's red-carpet plus-one — she's an actress, trained singer and dancer and pianist who has appeared in theatre productions and short films. Her background in the performing arts has shaped her career while giving her a unique perspective on her partner's rising fame.
