Darren Barnet's Girlfriend: The Actor's Dating History and Relationship Status

Interest in Darren Barnet's girlfriend outside of "Never Have I Ever" is as hot as if he were in Sherman Oaks High School. What is publically available of Darren Barnet's dating history suggests that he is a "relationship guy."

In "Never Have I Ever," Darren Barnet's Paxton Hall-Yoshida is not the generic "hottest guy in school." The writers have crafted the character with a depth that has kept viewers interested long after he had walked down the school hallway in slow motion.

At face value, the star shares one significant trait with Paxton – he is discrete with his private life. The Los Angeles native has dated a few women publically but has carefully curated the information he shares. "The Summit of the Gods" voice actor claims to have quarantined alone, but he spent some time with a co-star not long after.

Darren Barnet Dated E! Producer Cassie Maynard for Two Years

"She is kinda cute," Barnet hashtagged the first post on his grid with Cassie Maynard at an ice skating rink in Santa Monica, California, on November 15, 2014.

The following November, he posted a photo with the E! producer in a last-minute Halloween couples costume as Lois and Clark at what looked like a work event for the media professional.

"Celebrating 365 with this lovely lady at Universal. Thank god she has an NBC badge," the "Love Hard" star captioned the post. The anniversary post featured a collage of the pair posing with a giant Christmas tree and Transformer figurines.

The actor posted his penultimate post with Maynard of their desert vacation in Sabino Canyon on May 5, 2017, and their last post together was of them lounging at a pool that same month on Memorial Day weekend.

Barnet reportedly made his final showing on Maynard's grid in January 2017, and she looked to be in a new relationship in March 2018.

The producer seems to have gotten married based on her name change on her closed Instagram account, Cassie Maynard-Sadler. In her profile image, she is wearing a stunning spaghetti-strap white wedding dress and veil on a beach.

Darren Barnet Had a Brief Romance with Model Ali Rose

While a sprinkling of his ex-Maynard remains on his Instagram profile, one needs to dig through the social media archives of Ali Rose to uncover the crumbs of her short-lived relationship with Bartnet.

The pair debuted on social media on April 15, 2018, with a grainy photo taken at "'90s night." On National Boyfriend's Day on October 4, 2018, the actress realized she was in trouble. She captioned a selfie of them:

"[Expletive] I'm in love."

Rose is a model with a handful of acting credits. She was the Ring Card Girl in Jake Gyllenhaal and Rachel McAdams' multi-award nominated boxing flick "Southpaw," after getting her start on the silver screen in another sports-themed film "Hooperz."

For their first, and as it would turn out to be the couple's final, Valentine's Day in 2019, she posted a sizzling studio photograph of them in the rain.

She has since reconnected with fitness trainer Michael Joos, who she met at 18. They got engaged in late November 2022 and welcomed their "tiny but mighty" firstborn, Mason Christian Joos, on May 18, 2023.

Darren Barnet's Last Known Girlfriend Was Actress Mikaela Hoover, and It Appears They Are No Longer Together

While things between Paxton Hall-Yoshida and Maitreyi Ramakrishnan's Devi Vishwakumar in "Never Have I Ever" never seem to work out, Barnet's most prominent relationship to date looked promising at the start.

Barnet and Hoover hard-launched their relationship.

"You make me happy. Happy Birthday Angel," Mikaela Hoover captioned the photo that would serve as the soft launch of their relationship.

The Polaroid-style image depicted a very anti-Hollywood lifestyle of the new couple gazing at each other wearing grey-toned loungewear while sitting on a comfy couch in the April 28, 2021 post.

Hoover has her eggs in two baskets of the major comic book houses.' She portrayed the personal assistant of Glenn Close's Nova Prime in "Guardians of the Galaxy."

The actress got another shot at the franchise doing voice work as Floor in "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3." In DC Comic's "The Suicide Squad" she played a small but bloody part of Camilla opposite Margot Robbie, Idris Elba, and John Cena.

The actress has been a guest star in a range of TV series, from the obscure "Sam Has 7 Friends" and "Sorority Forever," working her way up to "How I Met Your Mother," "Happy Endings," and "2 Broke Girls."

Barnet and Hoover hard-launched their relationship at "The Suicide Squad" premiere at the beginning of August 2021 at The Landmark Westwood in Los Angeles.

He toned down his textured tuxedo with a black tank top while she looked like a disco diva in a silver sequence mini and silver bralette with black accents.

The four foot 11½ actress wore matching sky-high stilettos to comfortably pull her beau, who was standing behind her, into a kiss with her right hand.

The Daily Mail speculated that the pair had been together for a year as they had spent Canadian Thanksgiving together the previous year. They were supporting stars in the Netflix 2021 Christmas movie "Love Hard."

As heavy as they started, the couple quietly fizzled out. The actor made the fourth slide of his rumored girlfriend Hoover's carousel about an Alanis Morissette gig they went to, his final appearance on her grid.

The actor has expressed his distaste for direct message requests to take his shirt off, so anyone who wants to hit up the possible bachelor would have to be more inventive.
