Rising actor Aidan Gallagher’s character, Five Hargreeves, seems to have made romantic progress in the fourth and final season of The Umbrella Academy, while Gallagher himself doesn’t seem to have any girlfriend in real life as of now.
In the latest season of the show, Gallagher’s character had an awkward and uncanny intimate development with Lila Pitts (Ritu Arya), who is canonically Five’s sister-in-law.
Skipping all that Five and Lila stuff!

What the hell man! That is so weird! I have been trying to watch #UmbrellaAcademyS4 Ep5 for the longest time but I do NOT like the forceful intimacy with Five and Lila! THAT IS DIEGO's BROTHER AND WIFE!! Ewww!
Were the writers high?!!!
The show has received a lot of criticism since its release, and this abnormal relationship plot seems to be at the top of the list, with many fans complaining about it on social media.
After an upsetting season, fans seem to have shifted their focus to the cast’s personal lives, and Gallagher’s seems to have caught the attention of many despite not being in any relationship right now.
Unlike his character, Aidan Gallagher seems to be a ladies’ man!
Born on September 18, 2003, making him 20 years old, Aidan Gallagher has only had one confirmed girlfriend until now, that being Hannah McCloud, an actress known for Revenge (2015) and Go Out in Violet Waters (2016).
Many speculate that both of them started dating around February 2017; however, it seems their relationship lasted for only eight months. After their separation, Gallagher removed all their pictures together from Instagram.
Aside from his confirmed relationship, there has been a lot of speculated gossip regarding his love life.
Even before dating McCloud, there were rumors that Gallagher was dating fellow Nickelodeon co-star Jessica Belkin from February 2015 to April 2016. There is also hearsay that Gallagher made the song ‘4th of July’ for Belkin.
Similarly, The Umbrella Academy star’s name was also allegedly attached to another actress, Madisyn Shipman, who is in The Peanuts Movie (2015) and Ordinary World (2016), from May to August 2016.
Another person people thought Gallagher had been dating was Trinity Rose, a fellow musician. This started because they released a song called ‘Miss You’ and shared videos and pictures of singing together.
However, they stated that they had a professional relationship and met each other through their love for music.
Moreover, there were also minor talks about Gallagher dating Sadie Sink, an actress, and Jada Facer, a singer and musician, that are baseless.
While Aidan Gallagher is currently single, he has stated that he is willing to be in a relationship if it is with the right person. As a confession for his 18th birthday, he said, “18th birthday, go out and experience the world, and all of a sudden there she is, and happily ever after.“
