‘Cobra Kai’ is back with Season 6 part 2 on Netflix, and once again our favorite stars are in the spotlight for their professional and personal endeavors. The latest curiosity surrounds the dating life and relationship status of Mary Mouser, who plays Samantha LaRusso in the Netflix drama. She’s previously been subject to rumors of weight gain and unfounded pregnancy.
While the actress isn’t married, Mary Mouser’s been in a long-term relationship with a fellow actor boyfriend, Brett Pierce, but are they still together in 2024? Let’s take a closer look at what’s going on in her love life!
Mary Mouser Celebrated 5th Anniversary With Her Boyfriend Brett Pierce in 2020—Did They Break Up?
Mary Mouser, best known for her role in Netflix’s ‘Cobra Kai,’ has seen her personal life become a hot topic as her fame grows. Born on May 9, 1996, in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, Mary has two siblings who are also in the acting business. She kicked off her career with a minor role in the 2002 film ‘Signs’ and got more attention in TV shows like ‘Without a Trace’ and ‘Me, Eloise.’ But it was her role in ‘Cobra Kai’ that really put her on the map.
Mary is/was in a long-term relationship with actor Brett Pierce, known for his roles in ‘A Million Little Things’ and ‘Stuck in the Middle.’ They first crossed paths at a mutual friend’s party in November 2015 and hit it off right away. What started as a quick friendship soon turned into something more, and the two didn’t shy away from sharing their relationship on social media.
The lovebirds seemed to be all about mutual admiration, laughter, and a pretty strong bond. Brett often appeared in Mary’s YouTube videos and was a solid support system for her, especially since she was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in 2009.
In a 2020 Instagram post (now-deleted) celebrating their fifth anniversary, Mouser shared her love for her boyfriend, writing, “Five years with you has felt like five minutes. Happy anniversary to the most spectacular boyfriend — who I am so grateful to say is also my best friend, my whole heart, and the only one I would want to be locked in a cabin with for the whole weekend.”
Brett also joined in on the love fest, posting about how he was smitten with Mary from the start, calling her “intelligent, beautiful, generous, and a spark of life and imagination.”
Mouser and Pierce used to be pretty open about their relationship, but in recent years, they’ve been much quieter on social media. Eagle-eyed fans noticed many of their posts about each other have gradually been deleted since 2021. Fast forward a couple of years, several reports claimed Brett last popped up on Mary’s Instagram in December 2019, and his last post about her was in August 2020. However, those posts have since been deleted, too. So, what’s the deal between the two? It’s a bit murky right now.
With all signs pointing towards a split, fans are wondering if they’re still together in 2024. Neither of them has confirmed a breakup, so it’s hard to tell with absolute certainty. The duo still follows each other on Instagram, so there’s a bit of hope, and some optimistic fans think they might just be keeping things more private these days.
Adding to the speculation, Brett appears to have pretty much stepped away from social media with his last Instagram post appearing in November 2023, while Mary was absent for the entirety of 2023 and she’s been mostly posting about her professional life this year, especially her role in ‘Cobra Kai’ on Netflix. That said, their long history together and all the milestones they’ve shared at the very least confirms how close and committed they used to be. This is especially evident in their adorable YouTube videos that still remain published on Mary’s YouTube channel.
Then there’s the buzz about Mary and her ‘Cobra Kai’ co-star Tanner Buchanan. Their close friendship and on-screen chemistry as Samantha LaRusso and Robby Keene had fans wondering if there was more going on. They fueled the rumor mill with plenty of social media posts together, including a fun trip to Disneyland Paris where Tanner gave Mary a piggyback ride. Despite the speculation, both have insisted they’re just good friends. Tanner has even admitted that their strong friendship made their romantic scenes a bit nerve-wracking.
In any case, Tanner Buchanan is reportedly dating actress Lizze Broadway. They keep things pretty private and rarely post about each other, but they’ve been an item for a few years. As for Mary Mouser, it’s not clear if she is seeing anybody new right now. She certainly does not have a husband, and there hasn’t been any confirmed info about her dating anyone. So, there’s every chance she’s single in 2024.
