Sofia Carson might be headlining the Netflix thriller movie Carry-On alongside Taron Egerton these days, but most people remember Carson from her days on the Disney Channel. That’s right, Carson is one of those Disney Channel kids—and there are a lot of them in Hollywood these days, so these days the moniker has become a mark of recognition. After all, most of these Disney kids are universally doing well.
The actress, who made her first appearance as a guest star on the Disney Channel series Austin & Ally truly made her mark on the channel—and on fans–with her role as the daughter of the Evil Queen, Evie, in the Disney musical fantasy film Descendants. She has later gone on to reprise that role in the film’s sequels, showing that she has not forgotten her roots. Carson also made her musical debut in the soundtrack album for Descendants, and first released the single, “Rotten to the Core,” and then her debut solo single titled “Love Is the Name.”

In 2022, Carson released her debut album, named after herself. The song “Applause” would feature in the film “Tell It Like a Woman.” Carson would also go on to appear on the Netflix romantic drama Purple Hearts, where she would play a singer-songwriter, before her new role in another Netflix movie, this time a thriller, in Carry-On.
Carson’s new role has sparked a new interest in her personal life, including her romantic life—which Carson has always kept very close to the vest. But who is Sofia Carson dating? Who has she dated? Here’s what we know.
Carson’s recent collaboration with Jimin on his MUSE album with the song “Slow Dance” has led people to suggest there might be something going on with the two. As is often the case with Carson’s relationships, she’s remained mum about the possibility and there really isn’t anything to support the speculation outside of the two collaborating on a song together.
Carson has not confirmed even one of her rumored relationships and has talked about how keeping her private life hidden is “absolutely intentional” on her part. In an interview with Extra in January 2022, Carson said, “To me, it’s about my art and the music and the films that I put out into the world and not about my personal life,” adding, “I still do love sharing personal moments that are special to me with fans, but it was definitely a choice to keep my private life private because it’s not what this is about for me. It’s about more than that.”
Despite that, some rumors about her relationships have surfaced, like in 2022 when she was linked with Purple Hearts co-star Nicholas Galitzine. The relationship was never confirmed, but fans speculated the two might be dating due to their on-screen chemistry.
Rumors surfaced around 2016 that Carson could be dating Sofia Vergara’s son Manolo. The rumors, ironically, started thanks to Vergara herself, who in a now-deleted Instagram post, posted a picture of Carson holding hands with Gonzalez, with the caption “about last night.” In February 2018, Gonzalez shared an Instagram video of himself lifting Carson up. This just added fuel to the fire, but neither of them ever confirmed or denied a relationship.
Co-stars to lovers is a thing, or at least people speculated it could be. In 2015, around the time Descendants first came out, there was a lot of speculation about Carson and co-star Cameron Boyce. Carson never confirmed or denied it, and soon enough people forgot about it. But it can be said that Carson has a lot of chemistry with her co-stars and that’s how the rumors start.
