Who has Joe Keery dated?
According to The Things, Keery had been in a relationship with actress Maika Monroe for almost five years, before their suspected breakup. According to GQ, the two allegedly first met at a Los Angeles party in 2017. They collaborated on the movie 'After Everything' the same year, then made their relationship public at the 'Stranger Things' season 2 premiere a few months later.
The couple has made a number of public appearances together over the years at significant award presentations and events while keeping their romantic relationship private on social media. In December 2017, Keery and Monroe cozied up while strolling through New York City's Soho neighborhood. The pair didn't hesitate to display their affection as they walked arm in arm, wearing practically identical clothing, and shared a tender kiss on the pavement.

Are Joe Keery and Maika Monroe still in a relationship?
When Keery released 'Go For It' as a single from his 'Decide' album, some of his fans wondered if he and Monroe had broken up. After hearing the lyrics to Keery's song 'Go For It,' which describes a relationship on the verge of ending, many fans assumed that the couple had allegedly broken up. Monroe was conspicuously absent from the 'Stranger Things' season 4 red carpet debut in May 2022, as well. Although neither party has acknowledged the split, several people think that Keery's alleged infidelity was the reason behind it. However, according to different sources, it could be the other way around.
The couple's public outings together have reduced, which further fuels split rumors. On November 20, 2022, a famous celebrity gossip account named Deuxmoi stated via Instagram stories that Keery and Monroe had formally broken up. Keery's absences at both the Lollapalooza festival and the celebration for Monroe's birthday sparked the rumors. Keery not wearing a piece of jewelry that Monroe had given him for Christmas served as additional proof.
Swifties speculate Joe Keery dating the pop star
According to Hollywood Life, on June 26, Swift was seen entering the Electric Lady Studios in New York City on the same day as Keery was also seen entering the studio.

Some fans don't think it's possible but the two might be collaborating on music, while some speculated another romance rumor is on the way. Swifties seemed more intrigued by the idea that they might be dating. They had never before been seen together.
