Pedro Pascal‘s life is a constant source of speculation from his obsessive fans. While he isn’t shy about expressing his political views, like he did at Cannes in May 2025 when asked about his political film Eddington (“F–k the people who try to make you scared…Fear is the way they win”), the affable but intensely private star keeps his personal life under wraps.
It’s understandable, considering a huge portion of the internet calls the man their daddy—that’s a lot of pressure!
Pascal, 51, who is currently rumored to be dating Argentinian creative director Rafael Olarra, has previously shared why he’s a bit of a closed book in public.
“I always feel perplexed when I’m identified in whatever form of media as a ‘highly private person,’ because that’s the opposite of me,” he told Vanity Fair in an article published in June 2025. “I’m very unprivate in my private life. I just know that personal relationships are such a complex thing to navigate even without having this enormous lens on them.”
Pascal hasn’t explicitly spoken about his own love life, but he has addressed how his characters, especially Joel in The Last of Us, make him think about relationships in general.
“I think what’s scary about Joel is that none of us really know what we’d be capable of if faced with the idea of losing love,” he told Wired in 2023. “Whether it’s conscious or unconscious, being alive or even being a human being is directly connected to the love you feel. Existing is connected to the love you feel toward a particular relationship—your child, your partner—and to lose that? Some people are not capable of applying rational thought to that kind of loss, or the threat of that loss, or the threat of that loss again.”
He added, “I don’t like psychological, emotional, or physical pain.” (They really are just like us.)
Here’s everything there is to know about Pedro Pascal’s relationships, which, if we’re being honest, isn’t very much. We respect it.
What is the relationship between Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey?
Simmer down, creeps. Pascal and his The Last of Us co-star Bella Ramsey are simply colleagues and close friends.
Ramsey told Deadline of their friendship, “I think our relationship grew and developed as Joel and Ellie’s did. No, actually, Joel and Ellie initially were very estranged and had a lot of anger and resentment towards one another. We didn’t have that. We were just shy of each other. And now that I think about it, us being trapped in the car together for Episode 3 did a lot for us.”
Pascal only had the sweetest things to say about Ramsey.
When asked in Variety‘s Actors on Actors series what it was like working with a teen for The Last of Us, he replied that Ramsey was “cool,” adding, “I couldn’t have asked for a more anchoring, generous, thoughtful teenager. And I don’t mean to say that in a patronizing way. I relied on Bella for so much of the experience. We were both scared and shy about that, but Bella just inspired me to be mature about it.”
“I really don’t think I’ve met anybody like Bella,” he gushed. “They brought the best out of me as a person.”
Does Pedro Pascal have a child?
He has an innumerable number of children. He is Daddy. To us all. But in all seriousness, despite playing kickass reluctant father figures in both The Last of Us and The Mandalorian, he doesn’t actually have any kids.
Speaking to Vanity Fair in an article published in June 2025, Pascal opened up about whether he wants to become a father. “I’ve had dreams of taking my kids to the movies the way my parents took me. So I guess I want a shortcut to an interesting human being who is my child who will go see something that I want to see,” the actor said
Is Pedro Pascal married?

Who is Pedro Pascal dating?
Pascal is rumored to be dating Rafael Olarra, an Argentinian creative director at Faena Hotels, but nothing has been confirmed. The two were spotted sightseeing and attending events together in New York City over Valentine’s Day weekend 2026.
A photo obtained by TMZ showed the pair enjoying a screening of Wuthering Heights. Later that month, TMZ published photos of Pascal and Olarra cozying up during a stroll in Los Angeles, being rather affectionate with each other.
To celebrate his 51st birthday on April 2, 2026, Pascal shared a photo via his Instagram Stories of what appeared to be the makings of a piñata party, along with bouquets of flowers. Olarra’s Instagram handle, @rafaolarra, was stamped in the top-left corner of Pascal’s pic, leading fans to speculate that Olarra may have been the one to set up all the birthday decor.
On April 3, TMZ published a photo of Pascal and Olarra on the set of Pascal’s gay romance film, De Noche.
Olarra was previously linked to Welsh actor and singer Luke Evans. The two dated between 2020 and 2021, according to Out.
Pascal and Olarra have not publicly commented on the nature of their relationship.

Does Pedro Pascal have a wife and kids?
Pascal isn’t married and hasn’t fathered any children, but he is Daddy. Got it?
Who is Pedro Pascal’s girlfriend?

Is Pedro Pascal dating Jennifer Aniston?
Rumors swirled in March 2025 that Pascal and Friends alum Jennifer Aniston were an item after the two were spotted grabbing dinner in Los Angeles. However, Pascal later shut down the dating rumors during the premiere of The Last of Us Season 2.
“We’re friends and we went to dinner with mutual friends,” Pascal told E! News. “It happens.”
It sounds like they’re just pals!
What was Pedro Pascal and Maria Dizzia’s relationship?
Pascal and actress Maria Dizzia reportedly dated after they both guest-starred in an episode of Law & Order in 2008. You likely recognize Dizzia from the Netflix smash Orange Is the New Black, ABC’s Emergence and Showtime’s The First Lady.
She also appeared in the Disney+ Marvel miniseries Agatha All Along. Dizzia has since married playwright Will Eno, so she’s doing just fine.
Were Pedro Pascal and Lena Headey in a relationship?
Pascal was rumored to have dated his Game of Thrones co-star Lena Headey in 2014, but neither commented publicly on the romance rumblings at the time. (The rumors were further stoked when Headey posted an innocuous and adorable selfie with Pascal that she captioned “Sunshine love.”)
Pascal did later say in a Reddit AMA (via the Daily Mail), “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, I think everyone on that set and anyone who comes in contact with her develops an instant crush. Talk about male or female, you’re going to get a crush on her easy.”
Headey has since married Marc Menchaca, so if she and Pascal were a thing romantically, chances are they aren’t now.
Were Pedro Pascal and Robin Tunney in a relationship?
Pascal and Robin Tunney were romantically linked after being photographed together at HBO’s Emmy afterparty in 2015. Pascal previously appeared on The Mentalist, in which Tunney starred—but these two were just close pals.
She was engaged at the time to Nicky Marmet, with whom she shares two children—and with whom she’s still happily loved up!
Where does Pedro Pascal live?
Although Pascal travels a lot, he primarily lives in Los Angeles, Calif., where he rents a humble loft, according to Vanity Fair. The actor reportedly owned a house in the Hollywood Hills for a while, but bad neighbors and a feeling of isolation prompted him to look for a new place on Airbnb during the pandemic.
That’s when he found the listing for the cozy L.A. loft, situated behind a front property whose owners he’s become very close with, and he’s called the place home ever since.
