More about Patrick Schwarzenegger’s past relationships

Before dating Abby Champion, Patrick had a couple of relationships. In 2012, he was rumored to be dating AJ Michalka, who was then famous as one half of the Aly & AJ. Schwarzenegger was seen with the Disney Channel star in October 2012 at Mathew Morrison's annual Halloween event. They were also pictured together while leaving the event. However, the rumors were never confirmed.

After the rumors of dating Michalka died down, Schwarzenegger reportedly started dating Taylor “Tootsie” Burns. Patrick and Taylor were frequently pictured together between 2013 and 2014 while they were enrolled at USC (University of Southern California). Patrick never spoke about his college romance with Burns publicly. The couple seemingly broke up in 2014 before Schwarzenegger started dating Miley Cyrus.

The romance between Patrick and Miley was also short-lived, as the couple only dated for a few months. Cyrus was also photographed with the White Lotus star at a college football game. Following their split in 2015, an inside source told People Magazine,

“They’re just in two different places in their lives – he’s in college, and she’s focused on her music and career.”

The source further added,

“She had fun with Patrick and initially seemed to think it would lead to something serious. They had a hot thing going on in the beginning, but then it sort of fizzled out. They don’t have enough things in common and instead live in different worlds.”

The same year, Patrick Schwarzenegger started dating Abby Champion, and the couple has stayed together since then. Champion has also accompanied Schwarzenegger on different occasions at multiple events while joining him and his family on trips. Abby is reportedly quite supportive of Patrick’s career.

Career-wise, Schwarzenegger is a part of the White Lotus Season 3 cast. The first episode of the new season dropped on February 16, 2025. Following the premier of the first episode, many speculated undertones of a somewhat incestuous relationship involving the character played by Patrick. The supposed subplot received much flak from internet users.
