Good news for Netflix fans, Euphoria star Lukas Gage will be joining the psychological thriller series in season 4. But that’s not why we’re here today.
With Lukas’ many gay on-screen roles, many people are still quite confused about whether the actor is gay in real life or not! Moreover, fans want to know all about the star’s dating history and current relationship status, which we will discuss below!
Is Lukas Gage gay?
No, Lukas Gage is not gay.
So, why is there so much speculation about the actor being gay? Well, it all started with comments on social media — IG, TikTok, etc. One person would just allude to how well he portrayed gender and the other would assume that the previous comment confirmed that he was gay. And so on…
Additionally, this rumor has a lot to do with Lukas having played too many gay roles, including roles in Tagged, Euphoria, and White Lotus. And not to mention Lukas’ “shocking” gay sex scene with Murray Bartlett in White Lotus, which doesn’t help his case at all!
According to Murray, the two were just “having fun” on set at the time.
With that said, Lukas is an advocate for gay rights. He started his career after defending one of his gay friends. At the age of 18, Lukas and his friend were partying when suddenly a group of men started beating up his friend for being gay. Naturally, Lukas jumped in to defend him, but was also beaten up.
“I had a broken eye socket, nose, jaw… eight of my teeth were knocked out. I (had to) put my face back together,” the actor recalled.
So, as he lay in his hospital bed, Lukas had this epiphany, “If I die, have I done everything I wanted to do?” He remembered that he was never happy in school and wanted to pursue acting. And that’s when the You star decided to pursue his dream.
Lukas Gage Dating History
Lukas Gage has dated quite a few celebrities in the past. Here is a brief summary of the actor’s dating history.
Although it was never confirmed, Lukas was rumored to have dated his Tagged co-star Lulu in 2016. The two were always friendly and even referred to themselves as “Browan” (Brandon + Rowan, their respective characters on the show). Yes, Lulu is now engaged to the love of her life, Mark Finster (a video producer). But the two remain on good terms.
After Lulu, Lukas’s budding romance with another Tagged co-star, Emma, began in late 2017. The pair became very close and never missed sharing pictures of each other on their social media pages.
But again, Lukas keeps his dating life a secret. However, he did joke about dating Emma on his IG story. We don’t know if it was a joke or something else.
Emma was then said to have dated a music artist named Vardaan Arora.
Lukas briefly dated IG star and actress Claudia in 2018. The pair were often spotted on vacation together at the time. Sadly, the two split before September 2018.
The Embeds actress later dated singer, songwriter, actor and producer Finneas O’Connell.
In late 2021, Lukas was rumored to be romantically linked to his Euphoria co-star Maude. But as usual, Lukas blurred the line between just being friends and having a romantic relationship with Maude.
In case you didn’t know, Lukas and Maude have been friends since 2017 after they filmed the movie Assassination Nation.
As of February 2022, Maude is said to be dating Sam Koppelman.

What is Lukas Gage’s net worth?

However, things weren’t always so rosy. The actor was even snubbed by a director during an audition. “These poor people live in tiny apartments. It’s like I’m looking at his situation and he has a TV,” Tristram Shapeero (who forgot to mute himself) told another person during Lukas’ audition interview.
So after the incident broke out online, Tristram publicly apologized through a letter, claiming that he had used the word “poor” in a sense “deserving of sympathy, as opposed to any economic judgment.”
But the director never directly contacted Lukas.
