Who is Rachel Zegler’s Boyfriend: Is She Dating Andrés Rivera?
Lucky Girl Syndrome is a textbook case for 22-year-old Rachel Zegler. The 2021 film West Side Story (super casual), directed by Steven Spielberg, was the actress’s first major break. After a two-year hiatus, she finally debuted as a superhero in Shazam! Fury of the Gods. Now, as Lucy Gray Baird in The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes, a prequel to the film series, she is spearheading one of the most famous franchises in the world. On top of that, in 2025, she will receive the royal treatment as Snow White in the Disney film.
Rachel also has a charming love story, in case her impressive portfolio isn’t enough to captivate you. She met her current boyfriend, Josh Andrés Rivera, on set and is an actor. The next Hunger Games film will feature Josh and Rachel as main characters. Those two are the epitome of the Hollywood “It” couple.
Find out all there is to know about Josh—and his romance with Rachel—down below.
Who is Rachel Zegler?
Zelger made her big screen debut in 2021’s West Side Story, starring opposite Ansel Elgort as Tony, in Steven Spielberg’s critically acclaimed adaptation of the musical. After reviewing more than 30,000 resumes, Spielberg cast Zegler in 2018 in an open casting call. Rachel made her stage debut as Maria in a Performing Arts School production at the Bergen Performing Arts Center while she was a senior in high school.
A Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress Comedy or Musical is just the beginning of the accolade season excitement surrounding her outstanding vocal abilities and cinematic performances.
Zegler and Gal Gadot will star as Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, respectively, in a live-action remake of the beloved Disney cartoon film. Along with Helen Mirren, she will be seen in Shazam: Fury of the Gods.
Who is Josh Andrés Rivera?
Josh and Rachel’s simultaneous rise to fame in Hollywood was a happy coincidence. Like Rachel, Josh’s breakout performance was West Side Story, though he had a small role in a straight-to-TV film called Vegas High (according to IMDb).
He has two upcoming film appearances: one as Sejanus Plinth in The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes and another as Cat Person, adapted from Kristen Roupenian’s popular New Yorker short story.

I am eternally grateful to the man I met on the set of this film all those years ago; he is now my soulmate. In both my dreams and my realities, you have been a steady hand. Spending time with you is the best. “You made me laugh,” she remarked.
Josh and Rachel have been seen together at several Hollywood events, such as the 2022 Oscars and Grammys, the 2023 premiere of Shazam! Fury of the Gods, and the 2023 TIME100 Next event. The couple also attended Heidi Klum’s annual Halloween bash decked out as Scooby-Doo’s Fred and Daphne.
