All About Chace Crawford's Girlfriend, Kelsey Merritt

In April, Chace Crawford and Kelsey Merritt seemingly confirmed their romance when they were seen sharing a kiss while on a shopping spree in New York City. The Boys actor and the Victoria’s Secret model were spotted at Khaite, where Merritt was wearing a casual outfit composed of a white T-shirt and jeans under a bomber jacket. She carried a Birkin bag and wore black heels. Crawford wore jeans and a gray cardigan over a white shirt and a black baseball cap.

On April 21, they were photographed walking in New York City together again on their way to a game at Madison Square Garden.

And they made their first official appearance days after. Here’s what’s known about Merritt and her relationship with Crawford so far.

The 28-year-old model is known for her work with Victoria’s Secret, having walked in their famous fashion show. Merritt made history as the first Filipino model to walk for the lingerie brand. The following year, she became the first model from the Philippines to be featured in the Sports Illustrated’s annual Swimsuit Issue.

Merritt was born and raised in Pampanga, and started modeling in Manila, according to Flaunt Magazine. She went to Ateneo de Manila University for a degree in communications before moving to New York when she was 20-years-old.

She has now modeled for many different fashion houses, including Chanel, Hermès, Ralph Lauren, Louis Vuitton, and Dior. She’s also a big traveler, and posts photos from her trips on Instagram for her two million followers.

She has nearly a million followers on TikTok, where she shares clips from her life, like this one at Paris Fashion Week.

It’s not entirely clear how long they have been together, but in June 2024, Crawford talked about being single on the Call Her Daddy podcast. The actor joked about being on the invite-only dating app Raya that is popular with celebrities and not connecting with anyone.

He did share his dating mode, saying, “I like to cook, so I do like to cook for girls. I’m a homebody, so I really like to focus on [being] very thoughtful. I feel like I’m a thoughtful person.”

In January 2025, E! News reported that he was seen getting a coffee with Merritt in Los Angeles, though there’s no knowing if it was a first date or a cozy outing for an established couple who have been enjoying cooking at home.

Merritt and Crawford attended Tiffany and Co.’s Blue Book: A Sea of Wonder jewelry collection event at The Metropolitan Museum of Art on April 25. Crawford wore a black tux while Merritt wore a stunning black gown.
