If you’re still thinking about *that* nude scene from season 3 of The White Lotus (relatable), you’re probably also wondering about Patrick Schwarzenegger’s relationship status at the moment. Well, I’ve got some bad news for you: He’s currently taken—and in fact, he’s married.
After his short-lived relationship with Miley Cyrus (lol, remember that?), Patrick sparked dating rumors with model Abby Champion in fall 2015, and in September 2025, the couple made things official by tying the knot. And because I know you’re curious, let’s do a lil deep dive on Mrs. Schwarzenegger, shall we?
Abby is originally from Alabama
Abby grew up in a suburb outside of Birmingham, though she actually got ~discovered~ by a Next Management agent while in the Bahamas, where her older sister Baskin was competing in the Miss Teen USA pageant.
As she recounted to Advance Local back in 2016, "When my family and I traveled to the Bahamas to watch Baskin compete in the 2014 Miss Teen USA pageant, a man named Ramiro came up and asked me if I was a model. I said, 'No,' and he said, 'You would be a beautiful model.'" Apparently, the agent asked to meet with Abby and her parents the following morning. "I was hesitant, but I thought, why not?" Abby continued.
Though Abby had always planned on attending Auburn University after graduating from high school, she decided to follow in her sister's footsteps and pursue modeling full-time instead. (Oh, and fun fact about Abby's sister: Baskin was romantically linked to Justin Bieber very briefly in 2018.)
She met Patrick in 2015
Not long after moving to Los Angeles to kick off her modeling career, Abby met Patrick, who was a student at USC at the time. It's unclear exactly *how* the two met, but according to Us Weekly, they were first spotted out together in September 2015 at West Hollywood hot spot Nice Guy. By February 2016, the couple was IG official.
As Patrick recently told People during a February 2025 cover story interview, "When we first met, I was 21, she was 18. So you're very different people and humans when you're that age versus now I'm 31, she's 27. Over the course of the years, I just continuously fell in love with her more and more, with the kind of human that she was becoming and that the relationship was becoming." Aww.
She and Patrick got engaged in 2023
In December 2023, after more than eight years of dating, Abby and Patrick announced their engagement in joint Instagram post. "💍❤️FOREVER AND EVER ❤️💍," they wrote alongside a series of pics from their beach proposal.
The two initially had their sights set on a 2024 wedding, but due to their busy schedules, they decided to put their plans on hold until 2025. When asked about the wedding planning process by GQ in September 2024, Patrick said, "I'm happy to give my opinion on things, and otherwise I'm just there to support her and make it so that she has the best day that she wants. That's really my job."
The couple has modeled together
Just when you thought Abby and Patrick's relationship couldn't get any more enviable: They've also modeled together. In 2018, they appeared side-by-side in a romantic feature for Vogue Spain, and the following year, they starred in a 2019 Calvin Klein Jeans campaign together.
They also appeared in Vogue in 2022 after shooting a fashion feature in Germany, and most recently, the couple starred in Tommy Hilfiger’s 2024 Fall campaign.
And now they’re married!
Held at the Gozzer Ranch country club overlooking Lake Couer d’Alene in Idaho, Patrick and Abby’s wedding took place in September after a year-and-a-half-long engagement, per Daily Mail.
Neither has dropped any photos on the ’gram yet, but I’ll be patiently waiting for them!!
