Manuel Garcia-Rulfo and Audrey McGraw are an item.
While rumors of a romance between The Lincoln Lawyer star and the daughter of Tim McGraw and Faith Hill started circulating in June 2023, the couple have managed to keep their relationship mostly out of the public eye. In October 2024, they were photographed together on a walk in New York City.
Manuel is most known for his roles on-screen, while Audrey has been following in her parents’ footsteps as a singer. Though the pair have kept fairly mum on their romance, they do seemingly share a love of photography and have posted sneaky snaps of each other on social media.
Here is everything to know about Manuel Garcia-Rulfo and Audrey McGraw’s relationship.

In June 2023, Audrey shared a photo on Instagram of an unidentified man reaching his hands towards the camera while sitting in a lounge chair. The caption read, “Ven mama, ven!” which translates to “come, mom, come.” The following month, Manuel posted a similarly mysterious Instagram photo of a woman hiding her face with her hands while posing behind sheer curtains. Though no one is tagged, Ashley commented on the photo with a heart emoji.
Manuel and Audrey have continued to share more subtle glimpses into their relationship on their Instagram accounts in the months since. In March 2024, she posted a black-and-white image of herself looking at Manuel, who had his back to the camera, with the caption, “found Gatsby.”

Manuel — who was born in 1981 — is 21 years older than Audrey, who was born on Dec. 6, 2001.
Her father shared a sweet birthday post celebrating his daughter’s 22nd birthday in 2023. “The sweetest, kindest soul,” Tim wrote alongside a selfie of Audrey. “Beautiful for sure, however, her inside beauty is so huge and so genuine … She looks at the world with love and empathy … And that’s where true beauty lies.”

The world may know them as one of country music’s most iconic power couples, but to Audrey, Tim McGraw and Faith Hill are just mom and dad.
“We’ve raised three strong, independent, strong-minded young women,” Tim told PEOPLE in 2021. “And what I’m most grateful for is just how normal our kids are and how grounded they are and how much they respect themselves and other people.”
While she was mostly kept out of the spotlight as a kid, Audrey made her acting debut when she starred in her dad’s music video for the song “7500 OBO” in 2021. Tim joked on Instagram that it wasn’t easy to watch his daughter’s kissing scene: “I tried to yell ‘cut’ but I didn’t get there quick enough.”

In an interview with Flaunt, Manuel said that taking photos is one of his favorite hobbies.
“When I was really young, I wanted to be a photographer for National Geographic,” the Murder on the Orient Express actor said. “My father and grandfather were experienced in photography as well, so I think I might have got it from them, it’s just a part of who I am.”
Like Manuel, Audrey’s Instagram feed is also full of artistic images from her travels. In February 2023, she shared a mirror selfie of her playing with a camera while Manuel flipped through a book. “Coffee and classical music,” she captioned the post.
Audrey is a singer
Like the rest of her famous family, Audrey is also gifted musically. She’s shared multiple clips of herself singing and playing piano on her Instagram — and so has her dad. In January 2024, Tim posted a video of his youngest daughter singing a cover of Tammy Wynette’s 1968 track “Stand by Your Man” with a split-screen of his reaction.
“Gosh, she is so talented man,” he said in the video. “I’ve said it 100 times, all of our girls are so talented, they all sing great. Audrey is just so special, she is such an incredible writer as well.”
Manuel has starred in The Lincoln Lawyer since 2022
Netflix
Manuel has appeared in several films over the years including The Magnificent Seven, A Man Called Otto and Greyhound. In 2022, landed his first lead role in the legal drama The Lincoln Lawyer, based on Michael Connelly’s book series of the same name.
Despite his success in front of the camera, Manuel originally planned to pursue a career behind it. The Mexican actor told TODAY in a 2023 interview that he attended the New York Film Academy to study filmmaking. He also admitted to Flaunt that he hopes to direct a project someday.
“I’ve always wanted to direct,” Manuel said. “I love film and I love the feeling of directing. It’s great because it includes everything from acting to photography and has a lot of elements that really excite me.”
Manuel and Audrey live on opposite coasts

Like Mickey Haller, Manuel also calls Los Angeles home. He told the Los Angeles Times in 2023 that when he’s not filming, he lives on his grandfather’s ranch in Guadalajara, Mexico where he started a lime farm with 300 trees.
“I love L.A., it’s a cool city,” he told Flaunt. “There’s so much to see if you drive an hour or two in any direction … Plus, it’s so close to Mexico. I love New York, but if I want to go visit my family, it’s so far.”
But not far enough to keep him away from his girlfriend. After graduating from high school in 2020, Tim told the Leo Edit that Audrey was living in New York City to pursue a career in acting and modeling.

Audrey and Manuel have mostly kept their romance under wraps, but they have appeared on each other’s social media several times. In January 2021, she shared a captionless portrait of Manuel alongside Elvis Presley’s song “Trouble.” Audrey also keeps a few snippets of him in her Highlights, including a video of him dancing to David Bowie’s song “Heroes.”
In addition to their social media posts, the couple have also been photographed together. They were spotted walking the streets of New York City in October 2024.
