While they did not reveal the cause of their previous relationship's end, Hewson shared that they were not looking for love when they found it earlier this year and humorously compared it to being hit over the head with a frying pan. However, that did not stop them from gushing about their new romance on the "Couple's Therapy" podcast, as the actor said:

"I'm in love. I mean, I hope that's ok to say, but that is what's happening."

Fans' Negative Reaction to Liv Hewson Having a Partner

Despite the "Couple's Therapy" podcast hosts revealing that they could see Hewson wearing a "glow of love" and blushing as they spoke about their newfound romance, the actor's fans did not take the news well.

One fan tweeted, "thinking about how liv hewson has a partner [sic]." The tweet was followed by a GIF of a man angrily hitting kitchenware off a shelf. Another fan shared, "liv hewson has a partner and it's not me [sic]."

However, a third Twitter fan claimed to be Hewson's partner as they wrote, "the thing about liv hewson is that theyre my partner and we're in love [sic]." Another social media user shared the same sentiment, writing, "ok liv hewson now you can reveal that we are dating [sic]."

Even though Hewson's fans were not ready to hear that the actor had jumped back into the dating pool, their fans could not get enough of the actor's chemistry with their "Yellowjackets" co-star, Jasmin Savoy Brown.

Hewson and Brown hosted Netflix's first podcast, "The Homo Schedule," and gave fans a closer look at their friendship. In "Yellowjackets," —co-starring Sophie Thatcher, Sammi Hanratty, and Juliette Lewis — the two actors play love interests, and Hewson admitted, "[...] we were like, 'We are doing this for gay people.'"
