It's April 2nd.

I'm Cory with the story.

Noah Schnaff from Stranger Things had fans doing a double take on April 1st when he dropped

an Instagram story pic of him and a guy watching a...

Sunset, arms around each other, captioned one month of us with a heart.

It looked like he was announcing a new relationship.

Years later on April 2nd, the 21-year-old cleared it up with another story and a kissing

emoji straight up saying April Fools.

He pulled off the prank perfectly, but yeah, the timing had some scratching their heads.

Fans were buzzing online with a few calling out the suspicious date, like one who said they

were happy for him, but on that first of April drop.

Still, most just laughed it off since Noah has kept his dating life super low-key since

coming out his gay last year.

Back in 2023, he shared his coming-out story on TikTok, joking about finally telling

friends and family after 18 years in the...

Closet, only for them to say we knew.

That vulnerability hit home for a lot of folks.

In the final Stranger Things season that wrapped last December, Noah channeled those real feelings

into his character.

Will Buyer's big emotional talk.

With his mom and friends, Will says he does not like girls instead of labeling it outright,

nearing how scary it fell for Noah back then in that 80s Indiana vibe.

Smart way to weave life into art.
