Shailene Woodley Addresses the Status of Her Love Life After Aaron Rodgers Breakup
Austin Stowell is putting service over self.
As the Bridge of Spies actor prepares for his new role as a young Leroy Jethro Gibbs in NCIS: Origins—a prequel series to the longstanding CBS show NCIS that starred Mark Harmon in the role—he is prioritizing his work connections instead of his romantic ones. In fact, Austin joked that his love life is dedicated to the hundreds of people working on the cast and crew.
“I’m in a relationship with a TV show,” Austin told People in an interview published Oct. 14. “I am here Monday through Friday. Remember those 300 people that I was telling you about? They are all my boyfriends and girlfriends.”
And though the 39-year-old—who dated Degrassi alum Nina Dobrev for seven months before the pair broke up in February 2016—isn’t romantically-linked at the moment, he noted that “kindness” is a priority for when he begins looking for a partner again.
