Alix Earle Steps Out With Benson Boone for Los Angeles Dinner
Who says you can’t find reale love in reality TV?
In the last month, it appears Ashtin Earle and Landon Barker have, at the very least, sparked romance rumors.
Take, for instance, Landon's recent appearance at the premiere of Ashtin and her family's new Netflix series Earle Meets World. While the two were not photographed together at the Sept. 1 event in Los Angeles, Landon did pose with pals on the red carpet.
Ashtin, for her part, paid the favor forward last month. Shortly after reports Landon and British model Skyla Sanders had split, he was joined by Ashtin at his dad Travis Barker’s Louder than Fear documentary premiere Aug. 11. In a video shared to TikTok at the time, Ashtin, 23, can be seen walking to a seat in the venue alongside Landon, 22, as well as his dad, stepmom Kourtney Kardashian as well as sisters Atiana De La Hoya 27, and Alabama Barker, 20.
And in July, Ashtin and her sister Alix Earle were featured in a video alongside Landon that was shared by influencer Carter Gregory.
Under the video, several fans have begun taking note of the possibility that the pair could be a romantic item. As one fan wrote, “Wait is Landon and Ashtin a possibility?”
Another quipped, “Hold up, Ashtin and Landon would be hot together.”

Meanwhile, another fan simply attached a screenshot from a recent Instagram Story shared by Ashtin, where a man’s arms—presumed to be Landon's, as he has identical tattoos—are wrapped around her.
Of course, Ashtin and Landon—whose mom is Shanna Moakler—have not commented on the status of their romance, but he has not been shy about throwing several likes on the Tulane University grad's recent Instagram posts, starting in July.
For her part, Ashtin appeared to comment on her relationship status on May 29, when she cheekily posted a screenshot of a news headline that declared she was “done” with dating on Instagram.
“I’m done dating,” she had said in a May 4 TikTok. “Done texting boys, done being nice and pretending to entertain them. Everyone’s a freak and a weirdo and a creep. I just don’t need that in my life. I’m so good not having freaks and weirdos in my orbit.”
As she put it, “I feel gross and creeped out by all these boys so, yeah, I give up on dating."
Whatever the status of Ashtin and Landon's relationship, there’s no better time to find love than the summertime. Keep reading for stars who have hard-launched in the heat…
