Emily Rudd, one of the prominent cast members in Netflix’s One Piece, has been a massive hit, which has resulted in her being in the spotlight for her exceptional acting skills. As a result, she became a major point of interest among the fans.
While seeking more information about her dating life, fans came across a picture of her from 2015 on her Twitter (now X), where she shared a selfie of her with Justin David Blau, popularly known by his stage name DJ 3LAU.

The couple looked adorable back when neither of them were in the limelight. They went on dates with each other for 6 years, according to Who’s Dated Who, they have separated for an unknown reason.
Moreover, the news publication site is in the dark about whether the actress has dated anyone else or is currently dating anyone. Additionally, there have been no rumors or insider reports about her being in a relationship.
Hence, it can be assumed that she has gone all out to keep her romantic life away from the public eye or that she isn’t dating anyone. Nevertheless, in 2023, following the success of the adaptation, rumors started to spread that the Fear Street actress was romantically involved with one of her One Piece co-stars.
Is Emily Rudd Romantically Involved With Mackenyu Arata?
Mackenyu Arata portrays the role of Pirate Hunter Zoro in the live-action series. One of the key reasons that talks of a relationship had taken place was the astonishing chemistry that he had with Rudd, who portrayed the role of Nami.
The speculation began when the actress praised her co-star in an interview published by X’s official live-action account. She complimented Mackenyu, calling him “effortlessly cool,” even praising his acting skills and how she was delighted to collaborate with him.
Despite so much buzz following their immaculate on-screen chemistry, it turns out Mackenyu is married to a non-celebrity woman whom he loves to the moon and back. As a result, the conversation following their rumored relationship is put to rest.
One Piece live-action can be streamed on Netflix.
