We remember American actor/model Taylor Kinney for his performances in Vampire Diaries, Zero Dark Thirty, The Other Woman, Chicago Fire, Chicago Police Department, And Chicago Med or for dating Lady Gaga.
But, since calling off her years-long relationship and engagement to the singer/songwriter in July 2016, the Lancaster, Pennsylvania-born Taylor has been pretty private about her dating life until the calendar hit March 4, 2022. Around this time, Taylor made her relationship official on Instagram with her new girlfriend, Ashley Cruger, who Taylor has been dating ever since, and the rest of the post thankfully only talks about her and her relationship with boyfriend Taylor Kinney.
Meet Ashley Cruger, Taylor Kinney’s Boyfriend
Around April 2022, Taylor Kinney showed up at Operation Smile’s 10th Annual Ski and Smile Challenge with none other than his new girlfriend Ashley Cruger and showed affection for her. While posing on the red carpet, Taylor kissed Ashley in full view. And these public displays of affection in front of the cameras implied that things were serious between the two.
It’s unclear how long the two have been dating, although fans suspect they got back together sometime in the fall of 2021. The pair have also reportedly been seeing event hostess Brooke Burke and her fiancé Scott Rigsby, and Deuxmoi, an Instagram gossip account, is said to have revealed their romance.
In 2019, Taylor was spotted kissing a mystery woman at Columbia Kettle Works in Pennsylvania in photos obtained by DailyMail.com. It remains unclear at the time whether or not it was Ashley.
Regardless, the couple still seem to be going strong and April 25, 2022 was the last time we saw Ashley having the best time, going for a night out on her bike with Taylor. Before that, on April 10, they had fun at MotoGP Austin in Texas.

Ashley Cruger’s work
Like her boyfriend, Ashley keeps her personal life out of the spotlight, but we can confirm that she does model. Ashley is currently signed to BMG Models, where her portfolio is listed as a Chicago-based women’s lifestyle model. It’s likely that she lives primarily in the Windy City, where Taylor also films Chicago Fire.
Additionally, according to LinkedIn, Ashley began working full-time as a sales and marketing specialist at El Bandido Yankee Tequila Company. And during that time, she also continued her part-time job as a business development manager at Eagle Six Properties. For a year before joining the company in January 2019, Ashley served as a liaison between the company and dealers at General Motors.
