While they have both dated some big names in the past, they’ve kept their time together fairly low-key.
Keep reading for a rundown of Qualley and Antonoff’s romantic history as well as their current relationship timeline.
2012-2018: Jack Antonoff and Lena Dunham date
Antonoff first met the Girls actress in 2012 after getting set up on a blind date by his sister, designer Rachel Antonoff, and comedian Mike Birbiglia. The two quickly hit it off and eventually moved in together in her Brooklyn home.
Over the course of their relationship, they collaborated together on several projects, including the Bleachers’ LP Gone Now, which features spoken-word contributions by Dunham. They also talked about getting married, with Dunham telling Ellen DeGeneres in 2015, “I mean, we own a dog together. We own a home together, but the marriage thing is a big deal,” adding that she’s excited to marry Antonoff “at some point.”
After more than five years together, the couple broke up in January 2018, with a source telling PEOPLE the split was “amicable.”
2014: Margaret Qualley and Nat Wolff date
