Fawning over Colin Woodell in Netflix’s latest medical drama, Pulse? Well, you’re definitely not alone!

The actor plays Dr. Xander Phillips in the series, which dropped on April 3. While Phillips’ romance with Dr. Danny Simms (Willa Fitzgerald) is at the center of Pulse, Woodell keeps his personal life out of the spotlight.

However, he is off the market. Sorry, ladies! His heart belongs to Danielle Campbell, whom he met on set. Scroll down to learn more about his real-life love story.

Is Colin Woodell married?

No, he is not. The Flight Attendant star proposed to Campbell in 2023. At the time, Campbell announced their engagement by posting three cute snapshots of them. “You and me,” she captioned the Instagram post. Followers could see the square diamond rock on her ring finger. The twosome has not given any updates regarding their pending nuptials, but one can only wonder when they will say “I do.”

Woodell is not on social media, and Campbell prefers to keep her romantic life off Instagram. However, she sweetly promoted Pulse on her Instagram Story in the lead-up to the show’s release.

How did Colin Woodell and Danielle Campbell meet?

The couple got engaged five years after they started dating in 2018. They actually met on the set of The Originals, The Vampire Diaries spinoff that premiered in 2013.

Campbell played one of its main roles, Davina Claire, for the first three seasons. Woodell joined the supernatural series in Season 2 as Aiden.

Who is Danielle Campbell’s famous ex?

Prior to dating Woodell, Campbell dated a former boy bander. She was romantically involved with no other than One Direction‘s Louis Tomlinson. The two were reportedly in a relationship from November 2015 to December 2016. They became linked right before his son, Freddie, whom he shares with Briana Jungwirth, was born in January 2016.

“I think Louis treats me so well. He’s got his own job, and I have mine too, so I can understand where he’s coming from, which I think definitely helps a lot,” she told Entertainment Tonight in 2016. “He’s wonderful, so I can understand the appeal from all the other girls.”
