Are Veronica and Reggie dating in real life?

Veronica and Reggie weren’t exactly high school sweethearts. They were entangled in an intense situationship that ended abruptly. But ahead of graduation, Veronica and Reggie found common ground and developed a friendship.

With her high school degree in hand, Veronica left town while Reggie stayed home in Riverdale, where he worked alongside Hiram Lodge. After a seven-year time jump, Reggie and Veronica reunite and rekindle their old flame, much like actors Camila and Charles, who have had an on-and-off relationship since 2018.

The two were first spotted together in a non-work-related setting shortly after Camila broke it off with her ex-boyfriend Victor Houston, and they made their relationship Instagram official the following month.

Charles and Camila dated for a little over a year before they called it quits. Months after their breakup, an insider confirmed their split in a statement to E! News. "Their relationship escalated very quickly and they are taking time now to focus on their work and themselves," they revealed.

The source continued, "They both have movie projects separately, and it's been a lot on both their plates. Nothing in particular happened, they just both felt busy and overwhelmed and it was a lot of pressure on them."

But with Veronica and Reggie back together, does that mean that Camila and Charles are a thing again, too?
