Outer Banks’ Chase Stokes Got Real About How His Working Relationship With Ex Madelyn Cline Has Evolved In The Years Since Their Breakup

As an ardent follower of Outer Banks who has witnessed the rollercoaster ride of John B. and Sarah’s love story since its inception, I must say that their real-life breakup hasn’t dampened my excitement for Season 4 one bit. In fact, it adds an intriguing layer to their on-screen chemistry that only makes their relationship more captivating.


In October 2024, when Season 4 of “Outer Banks” debuts on Netflix’s schedule, fans can look forward to finding John B. and Sarah Cameron in a blissful romance. Contrary to some concerns about other beloved pairs from OBX, these two aren’t among them. Preview photos suggest they share tender moments, and their on-screen chemistry remains strong – even though the actors dating off-screen and then splitting up. Now, Chase Stokes, who plays John B., is discussing his professional bond with his co-star and former girlfriend and how it has grown over time.

Since 2019, Stokes and Cline have been a collaborative duo. Their paths crossed when they were both cast in the series, Outer Banks. For four seasons, they have portrayed John B. and Sarah, characters who have shared a romantic bond since the show’s early episodes. In June 2020, following whispers about their relationship, they confirmed to People magazine that they were indeed dating. However, in November 2021, it was publicly announced that they had parted ways.

Yet, despite the nature of their personal bond, it seems their professional partnership remains unaffected, according to Stokes’ recent comments in an interview with People.

Regardless of the events that transpired in our private spheres, we initially encountered each other as unknown entities. Time passed, circumstances unfolded, and we developed a wonderful connection. Now, we find ourselves back at square one, which is rather ironic given that we’ve proven to be exceptionally compatible performers.

In the world of “Outer Banks,” Season 4 is our second joint venture on set following our split. As Season 3 rolled out, you might recall, our characters – John B. and Sarah – maintained a strong bond even off-screen. During an interview with Entertainment Weekly, I revealed that when we began dating, we made a commitment to prioritize our work above all else.

In my ardent affection for OBX, I must say that there was no trace of discomfort or strain between the two characters, and on screen, John B. and Sarah continued to embody their profound love just as before.

In the recent interview, Stokes expressed that he and Cline make a great team. He is grateful for their professional connection.

I’m truly grateful for her consistency in maintaining our dynamic, as nothing seems to miss a rhythm in the realm of John B. and Sarah. It’s quite uncommon, and occasionally there might be instances where things could falter or people might question if it will remain the same. So, I appreciate her and the world we’ve built together.

It’s clear that fans are just as grateful for this continued on-screen chemistry, and I certainly am too. Despite the fact that both Stokes and Cline have moved on in their personal lives – Stokes has been dating country singer Kelsea Ballerini since January 2023, while Cline was dating Pete Davidson, but they reportedly split up in July 2024 according to The Sun – their screen chemistry remains flawless.

After the conclusion of OBX Season 3, it’s clear there will be a time leap, and the Pogues will appear slightly older. I’m eagerly anticipating the development of John B.’s and Sarah’s relationship. The connection between Stokes and Cline seems to have strengthened for the better, and I’m confident they will deliver exceptional performances as they explore the narrative of this cherished couple.

Starting on October 10, 2024, the first half of season 4 from the series “Outer Banks” will air, followed by the second part on November 7. In the meantime, catch up on John B.’s and Sarah’s story (played by Stokes and Cline) by streaming “OBX” on Netflix with a subscription.
