Who is Courtney King — and how long have they been together?
- Courtney King and Dylan Efron have dated since their high school days in San Luis Obispo, California.
- Their public presence as a couple dates back at least to 2016, when Dylan first included her in his social media posts.
- Unlike Dylan, Courtney keeps a low-key lifestyle. She doesn’t use social media and works a regular full-time job.
How Courtney supports Dylan — private but present
Courtney appears to play a grounding role in Dylan’s increasingly public life. As he moves deeper into reality-TV stardom (after winning The Traitors earlier in 2025 and now competing on DWTS), Courtney’s calm, private presence helps maintain balance.
Dylan has publicly acknowledged that the excitement — and chaos — of such a high-visibility lifestyle could be hard on her. During his time on DWTS, he admitted that the intense rehearsal schedule was “tougher on Courtney than me.” Still, he emphasized their bond remains strong.
He’s also said that Courtney doesn’t pressure him about the future — she doesn’t demand a timeline or deadlines. That kind of understanding and patience seems to resonate with fans who admire their grounded relationship.
Navigating fame: Reality TV, DWTS, and relationship reality
Dylan’s recent reality-TV success has certainly changed the dynamics:
- His stint on The Traitors boosted his public profile significantly.
- On DWTS Season 34, the demanding rehearsal schedule — reportedly up to five hours a day — required Dylan to stay close to the studio, temporarily away from their shared home.
- Despite the strain, Dylan says their relationship remains “in a great place,” and Courtney still supports him fully.
- An unexpected benefit: Dylan mentioned that during this time they’ve traveled together more often, including brand-related trips — which has helped them reconnect and navigate busy schedules together.
What’s next for them? Engagement, family, or simply staying grounded
- Dylan hinted as recently as March 2025 that he and Courtney might take “the next step.” He described her as “so down-to-earth,” and said they’re “working on it.”
- As of now, no public engagement or formal announcement has been made. Their future remains personal and their timeline private.
- Given Courtney’s preference for privacy and a stable, regular job — far removed from spotlight and fame — they may continue to keep things simple, despite Dylan’s rising celebrity.
Why the story resonates: a real-life contrast to celebrity culture
Their relationship stands out because:
- It began long before fame — rooted in teenage years and genuine history.
- Courtney refuses the spotlight, rejecting social-media fame in favor of a normal life.
- Together, they offer a stable contrast to the typical whirlwind of celebrity relationships.
- Their story suggests love and loyalty can endure — even under public scrutiny and the pressures of fame.
They say love thrives in privacy — and for Dylan and Courtney, that seems to resonate. Their story is far from flashy. Instead, it shows that sometimes — behind the glitz, cameras, and bright lights — what endures is trust, history, and quiet support.
