The relationship of Natalie Dyer and Charlie Heaton started when they played a character in the timeline of 1984 Hawkins. The show Stranger Things became the way for the characters Nancy Wheeler and Jonathan Byers, the pair of a formidable boyfriend-girlfriend duo to have a developed romance in real life.
There are rumors saying that their romance started in early September. But a little more than a year later, a confirmation was made for their romance through a simple act of public display of affection. Due to this course of action, they are often seen together and regularly on red carpets and Instagram showing their lovely photos in their cute poses. Also, on the later part of the season of Stranger Things, their relationship has progressed:
Charlie Heaton posted a picture on Instagram calling Natalie Dyer one of his “amigos” as they took a trip to the island of Menorca, along the coast of Spain.
Fans began to question whether there was more to Dyer and Heaton's friendship when she posted a photo of Heaton to her Instagram account.
On a sunny afternoon, the photo captures Heaton holding aloft three birds, one on each of his head, shoulder, and arm. A few days after Dyer made her debut on Heaton's Instagram, the actor returned the favor by appearing in one of Dyer's posts.
For Halloween in 2016, Dyer and Heaton dressed as the Cowardly Lion and the Scarecrow from The Wizard of Oz, respectively, with two pals.
Fans appreciated seeing the on-screen couple interact and wondered if they were dating even if they didn't directly pose next to each other in the group costume.
More rumors were made just right after the two were seen to leave the Los Angeles International airport together after attending the 74th Golden Globe Awards since Stranger Things was nominated for the best television series drama.
Weeks after the paparazzi caught them leaving the airport, Life & Style magazine announced that the two were a committed pair.
Rumors have started to grow and the couple chose to deflect them. Dyer chose to give a general answer as to what they truly are.
Walking hand-in-hand are what Dyer and Heaton are caught doing down the street of New York City.
The cast of Stranger Things did a press in Paris and the pair made sure to tour the city. Enjoying the day together doing a couple things as well as window shopping. During their time in London, a paparazzi caught the couple kissing in public, in the middle of the street.
The 2017 Fashion Awards held in London is where the couple made their confirmation of their relationship by hitting the red carpet together. Heaton wore a beautiful satin canary yellow bomber jacket wguke Dyer chose a stunning burgundy dress with stars embossed on it that is made by Coach.

The couple attended the Emmy Awards together with Dyer wearing a stunning gold embroidered Dolce and Gabbana gown while Heaton looked dashing in a classic tuxedo.
In an interview, Dyer told the press what he loved the most about his boyfriend, “He’s alright I guess. He doesn’t mess up our scenes too much!” she joked. “No, he’s great. He’s talented, like everybody in the cast. They’re all super, just great to work with.”
There are reports that they are seen smitten or obsessed with each other. Dyer was also saved from a dress malfunction by Heaton.

Heaton was asked of the nature of their relationship and he plainly said, “We didn't really know what the relationship was,” but according to the show’s co-creator Matt Duffer, the attraction between the two is uncanny.
After many months of being quiet, the couple attended the Dior Homme catwalk after-party together held in London. Rumors have grew since this is a rare public appearance after the couple decided to stay private about their relationship.
Dyer seems to think that people’s interest in their relationship is a bit strange and cliche. According to her, “We were colleagues first,” she explained. “It’s a standard, natural thing that would’ve happened either way. We work on the same show – naturally we would do interviews together and things like that. The weirdest thing about [our relationship] is other people’s perception and reaction to it. Everything else just feels very human.”
Even if the horror comes from the Upside-Down, it is true that you can find love in Hawkins, Indiana. After Stranger Things debuted in July 2016, Charlie Heaton and Natalia Dyer moved their romance from the screen to the real world.
