By FS staff
As On My Block approaches its fourth and final season, questions linger about some members of its adorable cast. For starters, there continues to be a ton of speculation that there’s something going on between this coming-of-age series’ co-stars, Sierra Capri and Diego Tinoco.
Shortly after the comedy-drama aired in 2018, those binging the series began wondering if some of that undeniable onscreen chemistry was the product or catalyst of a real-life romance between them. And it’s definitely a fair question.
Are Sierra Capri and Diego Tinoco dating?
The two actors certainly gush about one another in real life enough to beg the question–are they an item off-screen? While speaking to Teen Vogue in March 2020, Tinoco said of his co-star:
"Sierra is such a great actress. Working with her, instantly we can just jump into it. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better scene partner. Especially for my first TV show, having a girlfriend. I couldn’t have asked for a better screen lover."
But for those who have been shipping this onscreen couple, we’ve got some disappointing news. Sierra Capri and Diego Tinoco are definitely not dating in real life. Not currently, anyway.
In a number of interviews, these seemingly flirty friends have gushed about their loving, but platonic and professional, relationship. They have credited that onscreen chemistry to a natural and instantaneous ease between them.
While they both appear to be single in real life, their mutual feelings for their onscreen relationship status seem to be a different story. As reported by Distractify, both actors have admitted they could see their characters’ relationship ending with a “happily ever after” eventually, no matter how rocky the road has been thus far.
If that’s somehow a clue about what’s to come in On My Block season 4, fans’ hopes might continue to remain high that a real-life romance may someday bloom between the two actors. But really, who could blame them for that?
