Sorry to disappoint any The Traitors fans, but Dylan Efron is off the market.
“I’m in a relationship,” Efron, 33, said on the Friday, March 7, episode of “The Viall Files” podcast. “It’s cool because she’s actually not on social media and she works a 40-hour week job.”
Dylan, who is notably the younger sibling of actor Zac Efron, and his girlfriend, Courtney, initially met back in high school.
“We’re from the same town,” he explained. “It works out really well. It’s not, like, I’m hiding her from the world or anything. She understands the job, all the stuff. She doesn’t really like being on camera. She loves your guys’ podcast. I wouldn’t know about it [without her]. She’s the one who introduced me.”

Dylan, who sat down with “Viall Files” hosts Nick Viall and wife Natalie Joy to discuss the finale of The Traitors season 3, further discussed his affinity for reality TV.
“Survivor was the day 1,” Dylan revealed. “[It] was my first dabble into it, and then my girlfriend watches a lot of it, too. I’ll just be sitting down and then I’ll be watching a whole episode of Southern Charm. It’s, like, there’s some funny s— that goes down in those stuff.”
Just as Courtney has gotten Dylan to binge episodes of Bravo shows, he’s been able to encourage her to join his extreme sports pursuits.
“I just posted something of us rock climbing in Joshua Tree,” he added. “She’s a trooper. She can keep up!”
Dylan and Courtney’s romance has primarily been smooth sailing, though they are not immune to getting into arguments.
“We both like to listen to audiobooks when we fall asleep, or some kind of audio, and we fight over whose audio we’re gonna listen to,” Dylan said. “It’s like, ‘Are we gonna listen to Jeff Lewis?’ We both agree that we can listen to ‘Viall Files,’ but, otherwise, I have things I want to listen to that she doesn’t want to, so we fight over that quite a bit.”

According to Dylan, his girlfriend is also “70-30” when it comes to cooking meals. As a compromise, he tries to do the dishes more.
“You can keep cleaning and she’ll pick up the slack somewhere else, like, I hate vacuuming [so] I’ll fill the water tank or do something else to pick up the slack,” Dylan said. “We just moved in [together]. That was kind of our thing, like, ‘Let’s get some more space and that will lead to a happier relationship.’”
Dylan also teased that his relationship with Courtney could be endgame. When Viall, 44, asked about a potential engagement, Dylan mused, “That’s something that’s definitely [on the horizon].”
“Well, she knows the answer. We’re working on it,” Dylan hinted. “Courtney’s so down-to-earth, she’d never [impose a deadline]. Look, we’re 33. She’s not going to put a deadline on it.”
He continued, “I am now in that stage of I’m looking at the next chapter. I want kids. Like, I got a little brother and sister who are like 4 and 5 now, so I got to see the joy of them growing up and I want that for myself too.”
Dylan and Zac, 37, have two younger half-siblings, Henry and Olivia.
“As soon as Olivia was born, I was like, ‘I wanna be a girl dad so bad,’” Dylan said on Friday. “Now that they’re getting older, I went to some dance recitals and seeing that side of it where Henry is just like me. I’m telling him which plants are edible and he’s just sticking them in his mouth, playing fetch-type stuff. … I’d love to have both [a son and a daughter].”
