‘Stranger Things’ actor Gaten Matarazzo revealed the key to his successful eight-year relationship with girlfriend Elizabeth Yu. Despite starting dating at 15, the couple navigated high school, acting careers, and long-distance challenges. Matarazzo emphasized their strong communication and ability to thrive apart due to work commitments.
Handler praised the couple’s rare long-term success, prompting Matarazzo to discuss their shared industry experiences. He highlighted the importance of managing distance and the comfort of returning to their shared home base. Matarazzo clarified that while they live close, they do not reside together, a factor that may contribute to their relationship’s strength.
The actor reflected on their relationship’s beginnings post-‘Stranger Things’ season 2, coinciding with Yu’s acting pursuits and debut in the film ‘Somewhere in Queens.’ Their ability to balance work, distance, and a shared home base has been instrumental in maintaining their strong bond.
