Who is David Castañeda dating? The Umbrella Academy star’s relationship status

With The Umbrella Academy finally returning in just a few days, fans might be curious to check in on how their favorite Hargreeves siblings are doing. David Castañeda will be back to play Number 5, the knife-throwing Diego in The Umbrella Academy season 3. He often has romantic interests on the show, but what about in real life?

The actor is undeniably talented, charismatic and handsome, it’s not a surprise that so many fans mark him as their celebrity crush. Diego is also a popular character on the series, so the curiosity about who David is dating in real life is there.

Below we’ll look into who, if anyone, the actor is dating, or at least what we know of his rumored love life as of 2022.

Who is David Castañeda dating in 2022?

David is a pretty private person when it comes to his romantic life. While he has no problem sharing photos, inside jokes, memes and videos hanging out with his friends (like his Umbrella Academy bestie Justin Min, who plays Ben on the show), he doesn’t generally share info on who he’s dating.

Fans have long speculated that David is dating his on-screen love interest and co-star Ritu Arya, who joined The Umbrella Academy in season 2 as Lila Pitts. Lila is also back for the third season.

Ritu and David’s chemistry is undeniable and they appear to have a close friendship off-screen as they’re frequently sharing pictures and videos hanging out together on their respective social media pages. They also often support one another in their projects outside of Netflix.

Of course, none of that means they are actually dating. They might just be very good friends, as is most of the cast. Neither has officially confirmed or denied the rumor, so, for now, that’s all it is, just a rumor.

The Umbrella Academy season 3 releases this Wednesday, June 22, on Netflix.
