Benson Boone Has Been Linked to Maggie Since Earlier in 2024

It’s unclear when exactly Benson and Maggie started seeing each other, but one of their earliest sightings came in March 2024. The reported couple were seen seated near each other at the Elton John AIDS Foundation’s Academy Awards viewing party, according to The Sun.

Later, they were spotted together in a fan video in May 2024. The singer was leaving one of his shows, and Maggie was by his side. He was talking to fans who had gathered outside the venue. “I have to get my lovely girlfriend home,” he said, before taking a group video.

Maggie seemingly confirmed their romance with an Instagram post on June 5, 2024. She shared a photo set and included a video of herself and Benson holding hands.

Fans swooned in the comment section, pointing out that her pop star boyfriend was there. “Benson made the postttt,” one person wrote. The “Slow It Down” singer also reportedly left a comment. “The first pic…wow. Perfect,” he wrote. He’s also shared an Instagram Story on June 10 to mark Maggie’s birthday, but the post has since expired.

Maggie was squarely on Benson’s arm as his date for the night, wearing matching all black outfits. And you don’t coordinate if you aren’t together!

If you needed even more proof than that, Benson and Maggie shared a sweet kiss right in front of the cameras.

Benson Boone’s Song “Beautiful Things” Is Inspired by a Relationship

Benson’s breakout hit has been “Beautiful Things,” which peaked at number 2 on Billboard’s “Hot 100” chart. While the singer didn’t say if Maggie was the song’s inspiration, he did open up about it being about a relationship in a February 2024 interview with Billboard.

“It was inspired by a relationship that I had just gotten into — for the first time in my life, I felt like I was extremely out of control of the way this relationship would turn out,” he explained. “Meaning like, in the past, I feel like I’ve always known that I could be the one to end a relationship. This one felt very different. It was the first time that I’d really been actually, genuinely terrified to lose something.”
