Doja Cat finally locked it down with “Stranger Things”’ Joseph Quinn after Noah Schnapp

Just as the Mounties inevitably secure their target, Doja Cat has seemingly ensnared her man.

The pop sensation has been making waves in London, painting the town in crimson hues alongside her rumored new love interest, Joseph Quinn, known for his role in “Stranger Things” and the upcoming “Fantastic Four” film.

The duo was recently spotted in an intimate moment at Dingwalls Dancehall, located in Camden, London. Shortly after, they were seen strolling hand in hand, a sight that has stirred curiosity, given it comes two years after Doja Cat initially reached out to Quinn’s “Stranger Things” co-star, Noah Schnapp, requesting his assistance in orchestrating a romantic connection.

Two summers prior, Doja Cat made her intentions unmistakably clear when she publicly expressed her admiration for Joseph Quinn on fan pages dedicated to the actor. She then took matters into her own hands, enlisting the then-17-year-old Schnapp to bridge the gap between her and Quinn.

Schnapp, eager to assist, suggested that Doja slide into Quinn’s DMs and even provided a direct link to the British actor’s Instagram profile. However, Schnapp’s eagerness backfired when he shared their private exchange in a now-deleted TikTok, an act that Doja did not appreciate.

The “Kiss Me More” artist publicly rebuked Schnapp for disclosing what she considered a “private conversation,” labeling his actions as “borderline treacherous.” Despite this, Doja faced her own share of backlash for involving a teenager in her romantic pursuits.

In this modern-day tale of Shakespearean intrigue, however, all seems to have resolved amicably. Doja Cat and Schnapp have since reconciled, and now, it appears that Doja Cat and Joseph Quinn are romantically linked. In an age where dating apps reign supreme, sometimes all it takes is a popular Instagram account and a chart-topping music career to spark a connection.

Representatives for Doja Cat and Quinn have not yet responded to Entertainment Weekly’s requests for comment.

Are Doja Cat & Joseph Quinn Dating?

Are Doja Cat and Joseph Quinn dating? This question has the internet in a frenzy after the pair was recently seen getting close, leading many to wonder if the rumors are true. Given the peculiar nature of celebrity romances, let’s delve into what we know so far about this potential relationship.

The dating rumors ignited after an anonymous source claimed to have seen the two together at Dingwalls, a well-known venue for music and comedy in Camden, UK. Adding fuel to the speculation, a photo has circulated on social media showing the two in a seemingly affectionate embrace.

For those unfamiliar with “Stranger Things,” allow me to elaborate. Joseph Quinn catapulted to fame with the speed of a Demogorgon when he joined the cast for the show’s fourth season. The British actor portrayed Eddie Munson, a beloved metalhead with a heart of gold. With his impressive guitar skills and iconic curly hair, Quinn quickly became a fan favorite, and it appears Doja Cat took notice.

As it turns out, Doja has harbored a crush on Quinn for quite some time. Back in 2022, when she was 26 and he was 29, she openly declared her admiration for him, stating that she thought Quinn was “fine as sh—t.”

Determined to make her feelings known, Doja enlisted a little help. She reached out to Noah Schnapp, who plays Will Byers on “Stranger Things,” via DM, asking him to play matchmaker. In a since-deleted TikTok, Schnapp shared Doja’s request, which read: “Noah, can you tell Joseph to [hit me up]? Wait, does he have a girlfriend?”

When Schnapp suggested she message Quinn directly, Doja replied, “I don’t know his Instagram or Twitter. He doesn’t have a DM to slide into.” Schnapp, ever the helpful wingman, provided Quinn’s Instagram handle with a playful, “Right here, ma’am.”

Doja was understandably miffed when Schnapp publicly exposed her crush. In an Instagram Live, she called out the teenager for posting their private conversation, describing his actions as “socially unaware and whack.” She added, “That’s like borderline snake sh—t. That’s like weasel sh—t,” according to Rolling Stone.

Whether Schnapp’s clumsy matchmaking efforts led to anything back then remains unclear. However, with this recent sighting at Dingwalls, speculation is rampant. So, what’s the real story? Are Doja Cat and Joseph Quinn an item, or is this simply a case of two attractive celebrities spending time together?

For now, both Doja and Quinn remain tight-lipped. There have been no confirmations or denials—leaving us all in suspense.
