Brandon Sklenar may be a rising star with co-stars like Blake Lively and Harrison Ford, but when it comes to his love life, it appears he is just like us.
The 1923 actor is everywhere these days thanks to roles in Drop, 1923, and It Ends With Us, but really, he is a homebody at heart.
And for him, being at home means spending time with his partner Courtney Salviolo, who he recently revealed he met through none other than a dating app.
Speaking with Entertainment Tonight alongside his Drop co-star Meghann Fahy, Brandon revealed that he and Courtney met through popular dating app Hinge about five years ago.
He explained: “I didn’t have Facebook, I wasn’t like a phone app guy and it was right when COVID happened and I was like, ‘Ah [expletive], how am I going to meet somebody?'”
Brandon added that he “was on it for like two weeks” before clearly finding success on it, as he and Courtney have been together ever since.
Though it wasn’t until 2022 that the pair made appearances on each other’s social media, and they keep their relationship largely out of the spotlight, they have made red carpet appearances here and there, most recently for the season 2 premiere of 1923 in February, as well as the It Ends With Us premiere in August of last year.
Speaking with Forbes last year about working on 1923, which he described as “very intense” and the “first time I had done something like that, where I was gone for that long,” for five months, he gave rare insight into his home life with Courtney.

Remy stuck right by my side through every pain spell. I will forever recommend an animal for added support during a healing process, or lifestyle transition. Dogs not only give you unconditional love, but they get you moving!”
