Did Gavin Leatherwood Ever Date Kiernan Shipka?
Gavin has talked about a ton of onscreen romances over the years! While chatting with CinemaBlend in January 2021, Gavin gushed over his relationship with CAOS costar Kiernan Shipka. But they never dated in real life!
“He’s so driven by love. Nick was like a lamp that was never turned on until Sabrina came into his life. And since she brought that light, he sort of saw the world in a whole new way,” the actor explained. “And before where lust was more of his driving factor and his lust for knowledge and for being the best and for power, and strength was all at the forefront until Sabrina sort of flipped that world on its head. And as he went through it all, he discovered the power of love and what that can [be] and how much more powerful love is than anything else.”
What Has Gavin Leatherwood Said About His Dating Life?
When it comes to romance, Gavin has kept pretty quiet in interviews. Usually, the actor sticks to chatting about his CAOS character’s romantic interests. For example, during a March 2020 interview with TV Guide, Gavin got real about Sabrina’s relationship status, and explained why Nick was better in the end for her.
“I think Harvey is safe. I think he’s a safe choice. He doesn’t come from the witch world. He’s got him and his dad and their cute house and they probably make vats of chili each night and enjoy it together and sit down and have dinner,” he explained, throwing some playful shade at costar Ross Lynch‘s character in the show. “And that’s all well and good, but Nick’s understanding of the witch world is just so important and integral to Sabrina’s evolution.”
