Emma Chamberlain Rumored to Be Dating Musician Peter McPoland after Split from Role Model

It looks like Emma Chamberlain is back in the dating game and already has a new boyfriend.

Chamberlain broke up with her previous boyfriend, Role Model, whose real name is Tucker Pillsbury, in October 2023 after being together for over three years. Since then, she has not talked about dating anyone.

However, internet sleuths have figured out that the influencer might have a new boyfriend named Peter McPoland — McPoland is an American singer-songwriter and musician. It all started on the Reddit subreddit r/emmachamberlain.

A Redditor opined how they believed that Chamberlain had started dating a new boyfriend. They wrote that they were going through the social media personality’s 2024 Spotify playlist for music recommendations where they saw McPoland’s name twice.

They looked him up on Instagram and recognized the artist from an interview with Zach Sang, where he mentioned Chamberlain and talked about her and Pillsbury breaking up. McPoland revealed that he had not met Chamberlain at the time of that interview.

Seeing this, the Redditor decided to see McPoland’s followers list, where they found Chamberlain’s father and her friend Owen following him. As a result, they believe that McPoland is Chamberlain’s new boyfriend.

They wrote, “I definitely might be the only one who has noticed this, so I feel like I stalker, but I just needed to get other people’s thoughts.”

Other fans and followers of Chamberlain gave their opinion on the influencer’s dating rumor. Many believed that her father following McPoland on Instagram was a sign that the duo were together.

Another Redditor noticed that both Chamberlain and McPoland might have been in New York City on December 20, 2023. They wrote, “Emma & Peter both posted a ‘nyc’ post on their Instagram on Dec 20th.”

Many pointed out the similarities between McPoland and Pillsbury, claiming that Chamberlain had a type when it came to people she dated. A Redditor wrote, “Peter McPoland is so possible he’s literally a role model copy and paste.”

Another commented, “I just looked at his IG…not him being IDENTICAL to Tucker,” while a Redditor penned, “Same guy different font kind of thing going on.”

However, many believed that McPoland couldn’t be Chamberlain’s new boyfriend since he was dating his girlfriend, Lilly Flower.

A Redditor noted, “Peter actually has a gf (I sleuthed forever ago on him) she has photos of him and her up + he actively likes her photos.”

Flower is also a singer and often posts McPoland on Instagram. They went official with their relationship on Instagram on Valentine’s Day 2022. The last time Flower posted him on her social media was on November 17, 2023.

Since then, she has not posted anything related to McPoland, leading to the speculations of break up. However, McPoland still follows on her Instagram and is often seen liking her posts. So, it is unknown if the duo is still together or has broken up.

It looks like they are private about their relationship, seeing how McPoland still likes Flower’s posts and how Flower still hasn’t deleted photos with him from her social media, so they may still be dating.

However, unless McPoland or Flower comments on the situation, everything is mere speculation. Regardless, many believe that McPoland is Chamberlain’s new boyfriend.

Someone even asked DeuxMoi about their dating on the Instagram page’s IG Stories. However, DeuxMoi simply replied, “Who is Peter McPoland?”

So, unless Chamberlain confirms that she has a new boyfriend, nothing can be said for sure. That being said, Chamberlain often keeps her relationship and dating life out of the spotlight.

She did the same when she was dating Pillsbury from 2020 to 2023. They kept their relationship hidden for two years until they hard-launched it with GQ in February 2023. Pillsbury revealed that he slid into her DMs in 2020, and the duo started dating soon after.

He had contacted her after seeing one of her TikTok videos in 2020, and they chatted back and forth a few times before meeting at Chamberlain’s place for a casual date night, which the two first felt would not lead to anything more but did.

Pillsbury thought he ruined their date and confessed, “I thought we were never going to talk again. I almost cried on the way home. In my head, I was just like, ‘I [expletive] that up. We’re done, I got to move on.’”

However, they continued to date and made their red carpet debut as a couple at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party in March 2022. Chamberlain also appeared in the music video for his single “neverletyougo.”

A couple of months after they revealed their relationship, the duo parted ways in October 2023. On November 17, 2023, Chamberlain talked about her breakup with E! News and said that she felt good.

She said, “I’m good, I feel really good. You know what? Everything falls into place as it should. I mean, I guess not everything, but a lot of things do, especially in this context. It always does.” She also said that she was investing her time in herself.

“Ultimately when there’s times where you’re alone, it’s time to invest into yourself. And that’s really exciting, and I think it’s a great opportunity to check back in with you. So, that’s how I’m kind of using this time,” she concluded her statement.
