Rising pop star Madison Beer made it official with Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert. The pair took time out of their busy schedules to confirm their relationship at his football game on Oct. 5 in Los Angeles.
While Beer ramps up to the January 2026 release of her third album Locket – she put out her debut Life Support in 2021 and her sophomore effort Silence Between Songs in 2023 – and as Herbert – who was drafted by the Chargers in 2020 as the overall sixth pick that year – continues the 2025-2026 NFL season, they are not afraid to show off their romance.
As for her music, Beer is very “excited” for her new album’s premiere. “This album means the world to me, i’ve never been so proud or excited about something n i am soooooo beyond excited for you to listen,” she wrote in her Instagram post that announced Locket. But don’t expect any songs about her burgeoning love. “After writing the album, it feels like each song lives within this metaphorical locket for safekeeping. Each album feels like an era and once the albums are out in the world the chapter for me, usually with what I wrote about, is closed,” she said in a press release.
The “Bittersweet” singer, of course, joins Taylor Swift, who is currently engaged to Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and Megan Thee Stallion, who is dating Dallas Mavericks shooting guard Klay Thompson, in high-profile WAGdom of recent years. (Check out a timelines of Swift and Kelce here, and Meg and Klay’s here.)
Since their first sideline kiss in October, Beer and Herbert have taken in various sporting events, and even a reportedly partied with other Chargers players and WAGs. See a full timeline of their relationship below.
