Who Is Bailee Madison's Boyfriend Blake Richardson? Inside Her Dating History
One of Hollywood's rising stars, Bailee Madison's dating history is relatively short, and she appears to be deeply in love with her boyfriend of nearly four years.
Despite her young age, it is difficult to call Madison a rising star as she has already accomplished so much. The actress boasts over 50 appearances in film and television productions,
After rising to fame at a young age, her personal life has also been under public scrutiny for almost a decade. In 2013, she was rumored to be dating Zachary Gordon. Since then, she has been in several confirmed relationships with Emery Kelly, Alex Lange, and her current boyfriend, Blake Richardson.
One of Bailee's Rumored Relationships Was Never Confirmed
Madison, who has been in films featuring big names like Jake Gyllenhaal and Natalie Portman, is not secretive about her romantic life. Her dating life first attracted public attention in 2013 when she reportedly dated her "Pete's Christmas" co-star Gordon. Not much came of the relationship as they never confirmed it, and the speculation eventually fizzled out.
Two years later, Madison started dating singer Kelly. This time, the relationship was not a matter of speculation as the two were open about their romance. Madison even referred to it as her first relationship. Unfortunately, their time together didn't last long, and the couple split after a few months, allegedly on a sour note.
The young actress later allegedly revealed that he had called her a "prude." Madison disagreed with being put under pressure and felt it was good for her to slow down. She soon moved on and got into her next publicized relationship a year later when she began dating Lange.
Since 2019, Bailee's Heart Has Been Owned by Blake Richardson
With a tweet stating, "when they ask you to confirm it," Madison made it known that she was dating Richardson with a photo in August 2019. Richardson became a frequent feature on Madison's social media from then on.
The pair have gone on many adventures together, including a Christmas trip to Old Trafford, home of the famed English team Manchester United at the end of 2022. On his 23rd birthday in October 2022, Madison celebrated the day, noting that she had spent four years laughing and smiling by Richardson's side.
Bailee's Boyfriend Is a Singer
Richardson appears to be a fun-loving and always-smiling type of guy. From his Instagram account, he seems adventurous, which is a perk of the job. Richardson is a musician and is part of a British pop band called the New Hope Club.
The band appears to have three members, George, Reece, and Richardson. They have a website where fans can stream music and buy merchandise. New Hope Club has a considerable fanbase with over 700k followers on Instagram, and Madison is one of those fans. In July 2022, she encouraged fans to attend their show, posting:
"Things keep getting better ☀️ The US tour starts tomorrow for my love @newhopeblake & @newhopeclub ! swipe to see if they are coming to a city near you, and if so be sure to grab some tickets, and go dance/sing the night away with them. I can promise it’ll be a night you won't forget."
Before Blake, Bailee Was in a Long-Term Relationship with Alex Lange
In 2018, Madison opened up about her then-boyfriend Lange during an episode of her podcast "Just Between Us." Lange was also on the show that day, along with Madison's co-host Kaitlin Vilasuso and her husband, "Young and the Restless" actor Jordi Vilasuso.
Lange is a French South African-born actor, producer, and social media influencer. He has over 2 million followers on Instagram and almost half a million subscribers on YouTube. He is also the founder of AML Entertainment which specializes in providing high-quality, professional video and photo production.
Madison and Lange reportedly began their relationship in late 2016. Madison recalled the night they met, saying it was the same night he told her he loved her. She didn't immediately respond, and Lange said he repeated that to her every night for six months until she said it back.
Despite their exciting display of love, their time together lasted two years before they called it quits. The exact timeline is unknown, but the ending is around the end of 2018 or early 2019, the same year Madison started seeing Blake.
