Love life and girlfriend

Many of Paul’s fans believe that he’s gay, however, the popular actor has mentioned several girls whom he has dated over the years, and there are also rumors circulating the internet connecting him to several popular actresses.

Back in 2007, while he was shooting for the series “Zoey 101”, it was believed that Paul was in a relationship with the actress Jamie Lynn Spears, who starred alongside him in the series, however, these rumors weren’t confirmed – he was only 13 years old at the time! In 2010, he revealed in a tweet that he was dating a non-celebrity American girl, but shared no details concerning her.

He hasn’t spoken of any girls whom he has since been with, which is perhaps why many people query his sexuality; Paul hasn’t addressed these rumors, nor has any evidence been provided to support these.

As of September 2021, he seems to be single, hasn’t married, and doesn’t have children.
