Who Is Nathan Mackinnon Dating? Everything to Know About Charlotte Walker and His Personal Life
By David Miller
MacKinnon did not always maintain this level of privacy. Early in his NHL career, following his selection as the first overall pick in the 2013 draft, his dating life was far more visible. Between 2014 and 2016, MacKinnon dated Canadian actress Vanessa Morgan, known for her roles in The Latest Buzz and later Riverdale. The young couple frequently appeared on each other’s public social accounts and attended events together.
When that relationship ended in 2016, MacKinnon altered his public footprint. He stopped sharing personal milestones and turned inward. By the time Walker entered his life, MacKinnon had established a strict boundary between his athletic career and his home life. Their public appearances remain reserved for formal league ceremonies, most notably the 2024 NHL Awards at Fontainebleau Las Vegas, where Walker accompanied MacKinnon as he accepted both the Hart Memorial Trophy and the Ted Lindsay Award.
