Jenna Ortega and Devin Booker: the truth about their alleged relationship

June 2024 ยท 2 minute read

Thanks to her role as Merlina in the Netflix series of the same name, American actress Jenna Ortega is undoubtedly one of the most significant young stars of recent years.

The 20-year-old Californian has been the talk of the town recently, and not just because of her performances on the big or small screen, but because she was "caught" dating an NBA star.

Jenna Marie was apparently caught by entertainment website TMZ dating none other than Phoenix Suns player Devin Booker, sparking all kinds of speculation on social media.

Fans don't approve of the relationship

Ortega's ever-growing legion of fans aren't too happy about it, as Booker has been linked to several celebrities since breaking into the NBA in 2015.

It was confirmed in June 2020 that he was dating Kendall Jenner, a relationship which ended in November 2022 after a brief reconciliation in August of the same year.

The truth about the alleged romance

The controversial photo ended up being fake, just as you read it. A fan took the time to edit the photo to make it look like the two were out on a romantic date together.

In times of fake news, in addition to the photo editing, the rumor about Ortega and Booker's relationship grew after the Merlina star revealed some time ago that her favourite NBA player is in fact, Devin Booker.

As things stand, there is no relationship between the two stars, both of whom are fully focused on their respective careers in acting and basketball.

Another hit for Ortega

The sixth "Scream" film, in which Jenna Ortega starred, was recently released and topped the US box office, grossing $44.2 million on its opening weekend.

This figure was the franchise's best opening since its first film in 1996, despite the fact that Neve Campbell, who starred in the first five films, did not take part in the sixth due to a salary dispute with the production company.
