During his conversation with Tudum by Netflix on April 10, 2025, Connor confirmed that he was still in a relationship with Georgie.

Referring to the song Cats in the Cradle by Harry Chapin, Connor shared that he felt a strong connection and sparks for Georgie. He continued:

“I felt like I made great progress in my quest for love, and that song talks about a boy becoming a man. It felt right for the setting we were in. I felt sparks. I immediately felt weak in the knees and uneasy, and I quickly tried to calm down. I really loved the way she did her hair for our first date. It reminded me of a Viking shield-maiden’s braids.”

He explained that they both were looking forward to having a future together as they continue to learn more about each other. Connor confirmed their relationship by saying:
