Dylan Efron, the younger brother of Hollywood star Zac Efron, has carved out his own path in the world of reality television. After winning The Traitors Season 3 and now competing on Dancing with the Stars Season 34, many fans are turning their attention to his personal life. A big part of that curiosity is about his longtime girlfriend, Courtney King, who has been with him for years.
Dylan and Courtney’s story goes back to high school. They met at Arroyo Grande High School in California and have been together for nearly a decade. On The Viall Files podcast in March 2025, Dylan shared that their relationship works smoothly because Courtney understands his career. He also mentioned that she isn’t a fan of the spotlight and prefers staying away from cameras.
Dylan started sharing glimpses of Courtney with the public around 2016, but she continues to keep a private life. Unlike Dylan, who works in entertainment, Courtney has a regular 40-hour-a-week job and avoids social media altogether. Dylan has often said he loves that balance, especially since it grounds him when his own life can get overwhelming.
While she isn’t in the industry, Courtney does have a big love for reality television. Dylan laughed about this on the podcast, saying he often finds himself caught up in shows like Southern Charm just because Courtney has them on. For fans, this contrast between Dylan’s public career and Courtney’s private lifestyle makes their relationship stand out as refreshingly real.
When it comes to the future, marriage is definitely on the table. Dylan admitted that while they aren’t engaged yet, it is part of their plans. He explained that Courtney never pressures him with timelines, and he appreciates how down-to-earth she is. At 33, he feels ready to start thinking about that next chapter. Dylan has also spoken openly about wanting kids, saying that watching his younger siblings grow up has inspired him to want a family of his own.
Even though Dylan Efron lives in the spotlight, his relationship with Courtney King remains steady and private. Their decade-long bond shows that behind the red carpets and cameras, they’ve built something lasting and grounded in real love.
