Tanner Buchanan’s girlfriend is Lizze Broadway. Although he has depicted a couple of gay roles in movies, there is no evidence to show that Tanner is gay.
Tanner Buchanan is an American actor best known for his roles as Leo Kirkman in the ABC political drama Designated Survivor. The actor tries to keep a low profile when it comes to his love life, leading many people to question his sexuality. Here’s all you need to know in this regard.
Is Tanner Buchanan Gay In Real Life?
Tanner Buchanan is straight and not gay. His sexuality has since his rise to fame been a subject of curiosity to many, especially his fans. Rumors about him being gay started because he has played several gay roles in movies. In 2021, he announced his interest in playing the homosexual Robin character in a live-action Batman movie. In his words, he is always ready to represent such a character anytime.
From what is obvious, Buchanan does not care about the speculations of him being gay as he has never openly addressed, debunked, or confirmed it, hence, there is no proof of it. However, it is notable that he has only been romantically associated with women in real life. Although he plays gay roles in movies, there is quite nothing that shows he is gay in real life.
Who Is Tanner Buchanan Dating, or Is He Single?
Even though he does not usually flaunt his love life in the media, it has long been public knowledge that the Designated Survivor actor is in a relationship with Lizze Broadway. Lizze is a 26-year-old American actress best known for her role as Emma Shaw in Gen V. She was born and raised in Toledo, a city in Ohio, United States.
Buchanan and Broadway share the same year of birth but different dates and months. While Tanner was born on 8th December 1998, Lizze was born on 16th February 1998, and this makes her 10 months older than Tanner.
Some of Lizze Broadway’s popular movies include Splitting Up Together, Here and Now, American Pie Presents: Girls’ Rules, The Rookie, Southland, Ghosted, and Shameless, among many others.
Are Tanner Buchanan and Lizzie Broadway Still Together?
Tanner Buchanan and Lizze Broadway are still together. The two are reportedly high school sweethearts but the name of the school they attended is not known. While it is not clear exactly when they met for the first time, they have been dating since they were teenagers.
In an interview he granted on Anna Faris’ Unqualified podcast, Tanner revealed some anecdotes about his long-term romance with Broadway. According to him, they broke up sometime in 2015. Although he did not reveal the reason behind their breakup, he admitted it was his fault and that he later regretted his actions.
Tanner and Broadway patched things up in 2017 and have since then been going strong. They were spotted together in San Fransico at the 2019 Comic Con event. In August 2022, while responding to a fan’s question on whether he has a girlfriend, Tanner said “Yes, I do. Her name is Elizabeth Broadway… And she’s absolutely wonderful.” However, the couple keeps a relatively low profile on social media.
Buchanan Has Been Linked to a Couple of Other Women Besides Lizze Broadway
In 2021, Tanner and Addison Rae sparked dating rumors after they were spotted kissing while presenting Best Kiss at the 2021 MTV Movie & TV Awards. Addison is a TV actress and TikTok star who starred alongside Tanner in the Netflix movie He’s All That. It was following the movie that rumors began to make rounds that they were dating. But, that is not the case in real life as Addison has been in a relationship with Omer Fedi since 2021.
Again, Tanner was linked to Mary Mouser, an American actress. Tanner and Mary costarred as lovers in the Cobra Kai Netflix series’ first season and that sparked unending speculations among fans that they were dating in real life. However, it has been proven that the two have nothing together except their on-screen roles. Mary Mouser is currently in a relationship with Brett Pierce, an American actor, writer, and producer.
