BREAKING: Emma Myers Finally Breaks Silence on Jenna Ortega Dating Rumors – ‘It’s More Than People Think’

BREAKING: Emma Myers just shattered the silence on those Jenna Ortega rumors—and it’s a mic-drop moment that’ll flip your feed upside down… 💥

For years, fans have obsessed over every hug, every glance, every “just friends” vibe between the Wednesday queens. Now, Emma’s dropping truth bombs that tease the heart without spilling the tea. Romance? Ride-or-die bond? The answer’s got everyone gasping… Click to uncover what she really said: 🔥

The floodgates have opened, and it’s all thanks to Emma Myers. In a bombshell interview that’s already crashing servers and trending worldwide, the 23-year-old Wednesday breakout star has addressed the elephant in the room—or rather, the werewolf in the dorm—for the first time in years: the relentless dating rumors swirling around her and co-star Jenna Ortega. “It’s more than people think,” Myers revealed in a candid chat with Cosmopolitan UK, her words laced with a mix of amusement and exasperation. The quote, delivered amid promotions for Wednesday Season 2’s explosive success, has ignited a firestorm online, with #WenclairReal hitting 2 million mentions on X in under 24 hours. But as fans dissect every syllable, the reality emerging from Myers’ remarks paints a picture far more nuanced than tabloid fantasy—a testament to one of Hollywood’s most unshakeable, under-the-microscope friendships.

Myers’ decision to speak out comes at a pivotal moment. Wednesday Season 2, which premiered on Netflix in late August 2025, has shattered records with 1.5 billion viewing hours in its first month, surpassing even the original’s juggernaut debut. The season’s deeper dive into Wednesday Addams (Ortega) and Enid Sinclair’s (Myers) relationship—culminating in a body-swap episode that’s been dubbed “the queer-coded gift we didn’t deserve”—has only amplified the off-screen speculation. Social media sleuths have pored over red-carpet clips, Instagram stories, and even Myers’ recent A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder press tour, where a playful arm-around from Ortega at a London event sparked a fresh wave of “soft launch” theories. “People see what they want to see,” Myers told Cosmo, chuckling at the frenzy. “Jenna and I? We’re locked in this insane bubble together. It’s more than co-stars—it’s survival, laughter, the whole mess. But dating? Come on, we’re barely adults surviving auditions and airports.”

The rumors, of course, aren’t new. They ignited back in 2022, when Wednesday‘s first season turned the Addams Family reboot into a cultural juggernaut, complete with 1.2 billion hours watched and a rabid fandom nicknaming Ortega and Myers’ dynamic “Wenclair” after their characters’ portmanteau. Fans latched onto the on-screen opposites-attract vibe: Wednesday’s razor-sharp wit clashing gloriously with Enid’s unapologetic cheer, evolving into a bond that felt palpably intimate. Off-screen moments only fueled the fire—a 2023 Entertainment Tonight interview where Ortega called Myers “my burst of sunshine,” or a viral TikTok from the Season 1 wrap party showing them slow-dancing to Chappell Roan. By 2024, polls on platforms like Reddit’s r/WednesdayTV showed 72% of fans “shipping” the pair in real life, with threads dissecting everything from Myers’ Florida roots to Ortega’s California cool as “fated soulmate energy.”

Myers, who burst onto the scene as a homeschooled Orlando teen pivoting from gymnastics to acting after a bout with mono, has largely stayed mum until now. Her pre-Wednesday resume was a mix of indie grit (Girl in the Basement) and TV cameos, but Enid catapulted her into A-list orbit. At 19 during filming in Bucharest, she navigated the isolation of COVID-era shoots—eight months in a foreign city, far from her family—with Ortega as her constant. “Jenna was my lifeline,” Myers recounted in the Cosmo feature, flipping through old voice memos on her phone. “I’d wake up to her deadpan ‘Get up, wolf girl’ texts, or she’d drag me out for midnight falafel runs. That kind of closeness? It bonds you for life. More than people think, yeah—but not in the rom-com way everyone’s scripting.” Their chemistry read, a disastrous Zoom with Ortega in “terrible braids” and Myers mid-gym session, set the tone: awkward, real, unbreakable.

Ortega, 23, the Coachella Valley-raised phenom with Mexican-Puerto Rican heritage and a resume stacked with Jane the Virgin, Scream, and now exec-producing Wednesday, has been equally protective. In a rare joint quote for the Cosmo piece, she quipped, “Emma’s the sister I never knew I needed—sisters before misters, always.” It’s a line that’s already meme’d to death, but it underscores their dynamic: forged in the pressure cooker of Tim Burton’s vision, where long days in gothic sets blended with off-hours vulnerability. Season 2’s production, delayed by strikes and shot partly in New Zealand (where both overlapped on other gigs), amplified it. “We shot apart for the first half—killed me,” Ortega admitted in a September 2025 Netflix Tudum Q&A. “Emma’s Enid keeps Wednesday human. In real life? She keeps me sane.”

The body-swap episode, Episode 4 of Season 2, has become ground zero for the renewed buzz. In it, a cursed artifact flips Wednesday and Enid’s essences—Ortega channeling Enid’s bubbly chaos (complete with a failed TikTok dance), Myers unleashing Wednesday’s icy precision on a pack of werewolves. “We were so scared it’d flop,” Myers confessed to Film-News.co.uk last week, echoing sentiments from their Tudum interview. “Jenna and I rehearsed for weeks, swapping mannerisms like idiots. But it unlocked this… trust. Playing her made me see how deep our connection runs.” Critics have hailed it as a “masterstroke of subversion,” with The Hollywood Reporter praising its “tender exploration of empathy without cheap romance.” Fans, however? They’ve edited it into 10-minute “Wenclair confession” supercuts, racking up 50 million views on YouTube.

Myers’ silence-breaking comes amid a broader backlash against invasive “shipper” culture. In July 2025, a fake interview circulated on TikTok claiming Ortega “refused romantic scenes” with Myers—a hoax debunked by showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, who called it “harmful fanfic gone wild.” Myers addressed the toll in Cosmo: “It’s flattering at first—representation matters. But when it turns into ‘Are you two hiding a wedding?’ it exhausts you. Jenna and I laugh about it now, but early on? It felt like our friendship was public property.” She’s single, she confirmed with her signature wit: “Dating advice? Run away, get divorced if it’s toxic. Opposites attract, but loyalty’s key.” No names dropped, but the timing—post her Minecraft stint with Jason Momoa and amid whispers of a Stranger Things cameo—has only stoked curiosity.

Ortega’s orbit tells a similar story of guarded growth. From voicing Wednesday in spin-offs to directing shorts for X-Men ’97, she’s channeled the frenzy into advocacy. At a August 2025 Variety Women in Power luncheon, she and Myers tag-teamed a panel on “Fandom vs. Privacy,” with Ortega noting, “Ship the characters—they’re make-believe. Us? We’re building lives amid the noise.” Their real-life overlaps are telling: Myers as Ortega’s impromptu Seoul guide during Wednesday press (drawing on her K-pop fandom), or a July hike pap’d in L.A., arms linked, faces lit with unguarded joy. “That’s the more people miss,” Myers said. “Not drama—normalcy in chaos.”

Experts see this as emblematic of Gen Z stardom’s tightrope. Dr. Lena Torres, a USC media studies professor, analyzed the phenomenon in a 2025 Journal of Fandom Studies piece: “Streaming blurs lines—Wednesday‘s queer subtext invites projection, but stars like Emma and Jenna push back smartly. Calling it ‘more’ without specifics reclaims narrative control.” Torres points to parallels with Taylor Swift-Travis Kelce scrutiny or Harry Styles’ elusive bonds, where authenticity trumps speculation. On X, reactions split: @dailywencIair’s “JEMMA CONFIRMED??” post hit 100K likes, while @jenna_ethereal urged, “Let them breathe—friendship goals over forced romance.”

Not everyone’s buying the platonic line. Outlets like Distractify revisited 2024 “queerbaiting” accusations, arguing Season 2’s intimacy teases without delivering. Gough and Millar fired back in Variety: “Enid and Wednesday’s arc is chosen family—Jenna and Emma embody that rawly.” Myers, wrapping her Good Girl’s Guide sequel, leaned optimistic: “Special feelings? Hell yes. For the pack we’ve built. That’s the real plot twist.”

As Netflix eyes Wednesday Season 3—teased with “darker alliances” at a September investor call—the Myers-Ortega saga endures. In a town of scripted facades, their unfiltered “more” stands as a quiet rebellion. Rumors may roar, but Emma Myers’ silence-shattering words remind us: Sometimes, the deepest stories aren’t headlines. They’re heartbeats, shared in the quiet between takes.
