Pedro Pascal may be one of Hollywood’s most recognizable stars right now, but when it comes to his personal life, the actor has always kept things carefully out of the spotlight. Still, recent sightings of Pascal with Rafael Olarra have reignited curiosity about the Last of Us star’s romantic history, sending fans back through years of rumored relationships and speculation.
Pascal, who was born in Chile and later raised in the United States, first gained widespread attention through memorable roles in television hits like Game of Thrones and Narcos. His popularity exploded even further after he took on leading roles in The Mandalorian and HBO’s blockbuster series The Last of Us. As his fame grew, so did the fascination with his private life, particularly from fans who have embraced him online as one of Hollywood’s most charismatic leading men.
The latest wave of rumors began after Pascal was spotted spending time with Rafael Olarra, the creative director of luxury lifestyle brand Faena. The pair were seen together in New York City grabbing lunch and attending a screening of Wuthering Heights. Not long after, photographers captured them walking through Beverly Hills arm-in-arm, with Pascal resting his head on Olarra’s shoulder—images that quickly fueled speculation online.
Neither Pascal nor Olarra has publicly addressed the rumors, and no details about their relationship have been confirmed. The actor has long maintained a reputation for keeping his personal life private, which has only added to the intrigue whenever he’s seen with close companions in public.
This isn’t the first time Pascal’s name has been tied to possible romance rumors. In 2025, he was briefly linked to Friends star Jennifer Aniston after the two were photographed sharing a lengthy dinner at the Sunset Tower Hotel’s Tower Bar in Los Angeles. Pascal later shut down the speculation, making it clear that the pair were simply friends.
Fans also once speculated that Pascal might have dated his Game of Thrones co-star Lena Headey. The rumors intensified when Headey shared a warm photo of the two on Instagram years ago, captioned “Sunshine love.” Pascal later addressed the chatter, praising Headey as an incredible friend and insisting their relationship was purely platonic.
Over the years, the actor has also been loosely linked to actresses Robin Tunney and Maria Dizzia, though none of those rumors were ever confirmed. Despite the ongoing curiosity surrounding his dating life, Pascal continues to keep that side of his world largely off-limits, leaving fans to wonder which parts of the speculation—if any—might actually be true.
