Hockey has attracted a lot of attention in recent months. After the 2026 Winter Olympics concluded with a grand victory for Team USA, Jack Hughes became one of the most talked-about figures in that success. With renewed interest in the center for the New Jersey Devils, fans began to speculate about his personal life, especially after he was spotted with singer Tate McRae. Tate, in turn, is one of the most prominent figures in the entertainment industry right now, releasing hit after hit in recent years. So, are Jack and Tate dating, or are the rumors about them just speculation?
Below is an update on what we know about the rumored relationship between Tate and Jack.
While most fans are well aware of Tate and her meteoric rise in the music industry, some may not know much about Jack, who is one of the most recognized stars in the NHL. His celebrity status skyrocketed in February 2026 when he won a gold medal for Team USA, losing his front teeth in the process.
Neither Tate nor Jack has commented on the rumors about their relationship, but they have been seen together since late 2025. The pair may just be friends, but fans are convinced they are dating, as they have been spotted on coffee and dinner dates.
They were first seen together in November 2025, according to photos published by the celebrity account Deuxmoi.
Tate’s most recent known relationship was with The Kid LAROI. The couple broke up in mid-2025 after about a year together. At one point, the «Exes» artist discussed how «scary» it was for her to see rumors about her breakup.
«It was really scary and overwhelming», - Tate said in an interview with Rolling Stone in December 2025. «I would never talk like that, even about my friends' lives. I didn’t realize how much it would affect me when the public finds out about my personal life—because no one ever knows the whole truth about anything».
Tate is currently 22 years old, while Jack is 24
