Lily Gladstone has already made history.
The 37-year-old actress — who stars as war veteran Ernest’s wife, Mollie, in Killers of the Flower Moon – became the first Indigenous person to win a Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Drama Motion Picture this year.
And then, as a follow-up?
She became the first Indigenous person to be nominated for Best Actress at the Academy Awards.
Now, meanwhile, many fans are choosing to ignore history for a moment and are asking instead:
Is Lily Gladstone making love to anyone?
Which is to say:
Does Lily Gladstone have a boyfriend?!?
From what we can tell, the answer is no.
To be clear, Gladstone has not responded to this question in either direction. She has remained very coy about her personal life since making it big… although we haven’t seen her out with anyone and we haven’t heard any chatter that she has a partner.
In 2023, Gladstone did acknowledge that she goes by both she and they pronouns, telling People Magazine:
“In most Native languages, most Indigenous languages, Blackfeet included, there are no gendered pronouns. There is no he/she, there’s only they.”
“Our gender is implied in our name. But even that’s not binary. There were lots of women historically and still now who are given men’s names. They fulfill more of a man’s role in society as far as being provider, warrior, those sort of things.
“So, yeah, my pronoun use is partly a way of decolonizing gender for myself.”
Gladstone also said at one point that she at least has a high school sweetheart, someone who once gave her sunglasses with stars on them and told her to wear them someday at the Oscars.
“I still have them. If I end up going this year, I’ll dig them out, and I’ll keep them in my purse at least,” she told People.
(NOTE TO LILY GLADSTONE: You are definitely going this year.)
We also know she’s a proud dog owner, simply based on her Instagram account.
And she has the very strong and very vocal support of her Killers of the Flower Moon co-stars.
Wrote Leonardo DiCaprio after Gladstone won her Golden Globe in January:
“Lily, you are the heart and soul of this film, a formidable force and an incredible talent. Congratulations, friend.”
The beloved actor also gave Gladstone props in the wake of her historic Oscar nomination, stating on social media:
“Congratulations to my dear friend @LilyGladstone for making Oscars history, as the first Native American woman to be nominated for Best Actress in Killers of the Flower Moon, and the fourth Indigenous actress to ever earn a nomination in the category.”
