Peyton List, known for her riveting portrayal of a skilled martial artist (Tory Nichols) within the ranks of Netflix’sCobra Kai, is not only punching above her weight in the arena of acting. But beyond the camera flashes and the thrill of fighting, List has also found her real-life partner in crime—hand in hand with none other than herCobra Kaico-star.

Peyton List, known for her role as Tory Nichols in Cobra Kai, is dating her co-star Jacob Bertrand.

No, it’s neither Tanner Buchanan nor Xolo Maridueña who has stolen her heart, but the talented Jacob Bertrand, who brings the complex character Eli ‘Hawk’ Moskowitz on screen.

If art imitates life, then their love story is akin to a journey from on-set friends to a classic tale of long-brewing romance with chapters written across red carpets &, of course, sweet social media shout-outs. The pair officially confirmed their romantic tie-up in 2022. So, are you ready to crane-kick into this duo’s whirlwind of a love story?

Who said on-screen chemistry is merely for the cameras?Peyton List, who plays the fiercely talentedmartial artist Tory Nicholsin the hit Netflix series, has found her real-life karate kid in none other than her co-star, Jacob Bertrand. The sparks between the two have been flying for years, but it wasn’t until March 2022 that they finally confirmed their relationship. Bertrand toldTMZat the time.

We’ve been dating for a while. I’ve never dated anyone I’ve worked with before. This is almost trial by fire.

The pair’s journey from friends to lovers is like a plot straight out of a romantic comedy. List and Bertrand first met as Disney Channel co-stars before reuniting on the set ofCobra Kai. The actress played Ellie O’Brien in the 2016 Disney flickThe Swap, co-starring with Bertrand. The latter added:

We’ve been friends for a while. I met her when I was like, 15. I was actually tight friends with her brother Spencer, so that was kinda awkward to be like, ‘Hey man, I like your sister.’ But yeah, we had fun on set and then hung out off-set.

They officially confirmed their romantic tie-up in 2022.

Their relationship became public knowledge after they made a series of sweet tributes to each other on social media and attended various red-carpet events (seePEOPLE). Sadly, the love story hit a bump in the road in 2023 when rumors of a breakup circulated due to their absence from social media and events (viaJ-14).

However, those rumors were quickly dispelled, and List and Bertrand emerged stronger than ever in 2024.
