After months of clues and not-so-subtle PDA moments, Glen Powell and Michelle Randolph have finally made things official. The actor threw what looked like a wild Fourth of July party, and he hard-launched their relationship in an Instagram carousel on Tuesday.

There were 20 photos in the gallery, and one was a solo shot dedicated to Randolph looking carefree mid-dance move. Towards the end of the carousel, in slide 19, was a black-and-white photo of the pair sharing a kiss.

"Hell of a Fourth," Powell captioned the post, which also included photos of friends, water slides, backyard games, and appearances from Madelyn Cline and Zoey Deutch

It's been pretty obvious that they were together, and they ramped up the PDA over the last month. Still, when a celebrity couple goes IG official, it sets the internet ablaze. The reactions were instant, with fans commenting things like  "I was unprepared for slide 19," "NUMBER 19 I’m dyyyyyyingggg" and "Now THAT'S a hard launch."

While it's the first time their faces are in the pictures, Rudolph was soft-launching the relationship on Instagram last month.

 In a June photo dump, she shared a picture of their shoes on the sidewalk, and his boots did not go unnoticed. The top comment on the post was, "Those boots look familiar," with people pointing out they were Powells. "I love the soft launch!" another person wrote.

Powell and Randolph were first linked in November 2025 after they were spotted line dancing together in his hometown of Austin, Texas. 

Soon after, sources said the two were casually dating, with one insider revealing that Randolph had already met Powell's family several times and that they thought she was "sweet and lovely."

Their relationship appeared to pick up steam over the holidays when the pair traveled to Miami, where they were photographed on a double date with David Grutman and his wife, Isabela Rangel

At the time, a source told Page Six the two seemed "very, very into each other," adding that things were "moving very fast."

The couple continued to fuel speculation throughout the year with outings in New York City, appearances at an F1 promotional event, and a Golden Globes after-party in January.

Even as photos of the pair continued to surface, Randolph made it clear she preferred to keep her personal life out of the spotlight.

"I think, for peace of mind, those are really important for me to keep separate," she told InStyle in January, referring to her personal and professional lives. "It should be personal and reserved for yourself and those who are close to you."

Before finding love with Randolph, Powell was linked to several high-profile names, including Nina Dobrev, Renee Bargh, and model Gigi Paris.

His split from Paris drew significant attention in 2023 during the press tour for Anyone But You, when rumors swirled about his chemistry with co-star Sydney Sweeney.

 Both Powell and Sweeney later denied there was any romantic relationship between them, with Sweeney remaining engaged to Jonathan Davino at the time. She is now dating Scooter Braun

Since then, Randolph has kept her romantic life largely out of the public eye.
