His mother, Tonya Gillespie, “Momager” to her up and coming actor son, is believed to have played a very important role in Damon’s getting-bigger career. Enrolling him in Karate classes and other different competitions, early on, it was she who noticed Damon’s gift for the first time.

The duo, who started dating around 2014, rarely post pictures of themselves as a couple on social media.

Damon was doing Spring Awakening at a local theater in Tennessee, and at the time, he was just so focused on the work that he had almost missed out on starting a relationship with his then lady-crush.

They were not still dating but in touch as Damon returned to college in Chicago, and sometime in 2014, they moved to New York City together. And they have been a pair ever since.
