Unfortunately For The Tweens, Benson Boone Is Taken: Meet His GF
She's his muse <3.
After Benson Boone flawlessly executed his signature flip and crooned his heart out at the 2025 Grammys, tweens and teens alike are curious about the singer’s relationship status. These poor kids… this man is really their only young male heartthrob in the music industry. Back in my day, we of course had Justin Bieber, the Jonas Brothers, One Direction, 5SOS, Emblem3, etc. Someone needs to investigate why males under 30 — except for Benson — no longer make music. (No, I’m not counting Joshua Bassett and his five streams.)
Sadly for his young stans, I fear Benson is not single and ready to mingle. Here’s everything to know about Benson Boone’s girlfriend, Maggie Thurmon, and the tea on his exes.
Benson Boone’s Dating History: Girlfriend, Exes
Who Is Benson Boone’s Girlfriend, Maggie Thurmon?
The king of onstage flipping has been in a public relationship with influencer and actress Maggie Thurmon for almost a year now. Benson’s GF rose to fame on TikTok a few years ago by posting dancing videos with her dad, and she just starred in her first movie, The Other Zoey, alongside Drew Starkey.
The lovebirds were first linked in March 2024 and went Insta official a few months later when Maggie shared a sweet video of her and Benson walking hand in hand. They’ve since made several public appearances as a couple, including date night at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards.
And I’m pretty sure Benson has Maggie to thank for his smash hit, “Beautiful Things.” In February 2024, he revealed to Billboard that the song is about a recent romance. “It was inspired by a relationship that I had just gotten into — for the first time in my life, I felt like I was extremely out of control of the way this relationship would turn out,” he explained. “Meaning like, in the past, I feel like I’ve always known that I could be the one to end a relationship.”
The singer stressed, “This one felt very different. It was the first time that I’d really been actually, genuinely terrified to lose something.” Awww.
Benson Boone’s Ex-Girlfriends
Honestly, not too much is known about Benson’s exes, because he’s been famous for approximately five minutes and has only publicly dated Maggie. However, he did unexpectedly run into an ex at his concert in September 2024. While Benson was singing, he recognized a girl he dated in middle school and stopped to chat with her. It was quite the Wattpad moment. “Is your name Casey?” he asked the girl, who confirmed she was. “Bro, I dated you in eighth grade. I think you were in eighth grade, I was in seventh grade. That’s crazy!”
Benson told the crowd that when he saw his ex’s face, he was like, “What?! Casey? From middle school?!” It seems like the middle school breakup wasn’t too dramatic, because he finished the sweet exchange with: “Very good to see you, Casey. I hope you’re doing well.”
