Before he began stealing hearts on the small screen, Jack Innanen was already
stealing the show on TikTok with his viral comedy skits. Playing absurd characters whose witty conversations often spiral into unpredictable territory, Innanen built a loyal following of over three million fans online.

Unfortunately for those in love with Innanen, the TikTokker-turned-actor is in turn smitten with girlfriend Lauren Cantrell, per Interview magazine. Cantrell, who has nearly 882,000 followers on TikTok herself, is famous for her funny skits and impressions, and has previously shared sweet videos with her boyfriend on the platform.
Innanen said in the same interview that he often 'stalks' his girlfriend on Find My Friends. 'I just pull up her location and watch it for a few hours. Like flight radar but for her,' he joked.
