Noah Schnapp confirms his relationship and marks one month with his boyfriend on social media after coming out in 2023.
Noah Schnapp has made his romantic relationship public through social media. The actor, best known for his role as Will Byers in the series ‘Stranger Things’, shared an image on his Instagram Stories to celebrate his first month with his partner.
In the photo, Schnapp appears embracing his boyfriend — whose identity has not been revealed — in an intimate and relaxed moment. The actor accompanied the image with a brief caption: “One month of us”, alongside a heart emoji. The post marks his first public confirmation of a relationship since he came out in 2023. At the time, Schnapp shared a video on TikTok explaining that, after telling those closest to him, the reaction was natural: “Everyone said they already knew.”

His public coming-out also coincided with the development of his character on screen. In the fourth season of ‘Stranger Things’, Will Byers was confirmed as a gay character, creating parallels between the show’s narrative and the actor’s personal life.
Since then, Schnapp has maintained a relatively low profile when it comes to his romantic life, making this post a shift in that dynamic. The decision to share the moment — even without revealing details about his partner — places his relationship in the public eye for the first time.
At 21, the actor remains closely tied to one of the most influential television phenomena of the past decade, while his personal life begins to take on a more visible role within his public presence.
