Fans sickened by creepy detail as Glee star Dianna Agron steps out with mystery man

Glee fans were sent into a frenzy this week after Dianna Agron was spotted getting cozy with a mystery man in New York City—sparking rumors of a breakup and a bizarre lookalike theory that had social media sleuths working overtime.

The 37-year-old actress, best known for playing the icy-yet-vulnerable Quinn Fabray during four of Glee’s six drama-packed seasons from 2009 to 2015, was seen arm-in-arm with a tall, dark, and handsome companion on a chilly spring stroll through Manhattan on Wednesday.

Bundled up against the cold, the pair kept close as they wandered the city streets—instantly raising eyebrows since Dianna was last publicly linked to Belgian painter Harold Ancart, whom she reportedly began dating in 2022.

No official word has come from Agron or Ancart, but fans were more distracted by the mystery man’s face than his idenтιтy… because many were convinced he looked exactly like her brother.

‘That’s her brother Jason!’ one fan declared online, while another echoed, ‘1200% that’s her brother.’

‘They look like siblings,’ a third chimed in, as others shared their confusion: ‘If that’s not her brother, it looks a lot like him!’

But the internet detectives weren’t ready to leave it at that as some fans dug up old pH๏τos of her brother Jason Agron to compare.

‘Just googled his pictures and did a side-by-side comparison. This is not her brother although they look alike A LOT in some pictures,’ one user concluded, adding, ‘I haven’t been able to find recent clear pictures of him either.’

So… boyfriend? Brother? Doppelgänger? Whatever the case, Dianna’s low-key outing certainly stirred up some high drama.

And it wasn’t even the first time this week she had fans talking.

Days earlier, Dianna shocked the fandom by reuniting with Glee co-stars Darren Criss and Lea Michele—despite years of behind-the-scenes cast drama.

Lea posted the unexpected meet-up on Instagram last Thursday, showing the trio backstage after watching Criss perform in his latest Broadway show.

‘Night out with my beautiful friend from high school to see our former classmate perform on Broadway,’ she captioned the post — a clear wink to their days at Glee’s McKinley High.

But the nostalgic moment didn’t sit well with everyone.

‘Are Darren and Dianna the only ones who don’t hate Lea?’ one Reddit user quipped under the pH๏τo, as another chimed in, ‘I thought everyone hated Lea?’

The skepticism is rooted in long-standing allegations that Michele mistreated several cast members during the show’s six-season run.

In 2020, co-star Samantha Ware, a Black actress, accused her of on-set bullying and ‘traumatic microaggressions,’ prompting a wave of former castmates to speak out.

Among them was Heather Morris, who played cheerleader Brittany S. Pierce. 

‘Was she unpleasant to work with? Very much so,’ Morris said at the time. ‘For Lea to treat others with the disrespect that she did for as long as she did, I believe she should be called out.’

Actor Dabier Snell and Yvette Nicole Brown also shared stories supporting the claims.

In response to the backlash, Michele issued a public apology, saying she had ‘never judged others by their background or color of their skin.’

Still, her recent reunion has reignited conversations about where things really stand between her and the rest of the Glee cast — and whether Criss and Agron are the last two still in her corner.

In May 2024, Jane Lynch claimed that the Glee cast ‘liked each other very much’ while recalling her time portraying Sue Sylvester on the beloved Fox series between 2009 to 2015.

While the show certainty had a lot of behind-the-scenes drama and controversies, which were explored in the 2023 docuseries, The Price of Glee, the actress, 64, insisted all the stars ‘got along.’

‘They liked each other very much. And they would go out — they would sneak out for lunch, and come back an hour late,’ she recalled of her former costars.

Still, she joked that between takes on set she would ‘forget that they were singers and performers’ because ‘they were just on the phones like zombies.’ 

The Emmy Award winner noted that she and Matthew Morrison, who played Will Schuester, have ‘stayed friends’ since wrapping the series almost a decade ago.

‘Any scene I could do with him was just great,’ she said of their time portraying rivals on-screen. 

She also praised Iqbal Theba, who portrayed Principal Figgins, and Dot-Marie Jones, who played Sheldon Beiste. 

‘Those are the people I worked with most, and I just loved,’ she recalled fondly. 

Lynch also noted it was ‘unbelievable’ that ‘Cory [Monteith], Mark [Salling] and Naya [Rivera]’ are ‘just gone.’ 

Rivera and Michele famously had on-set friction, with the former writing in her book: ‘One of the Glee writers once said that Lea and I were like two sides of the same battery and that about sums us up. We are both strong willed and compeтιтive – not just with each other but with everyone – and that’s not a good mixture…

‘We’re all stressed, yes, but we’re all working toward the same goal, so laugh it off and keep it movin’. Lea was a lot more sensitive, though, and it seemed like she blamed me for anything and everything that went wrong.’

In July 2020, Rivera drowned after renting a pontoon boat at Lake Piru. 

Her death came after the pᴀssing of Monteith, who died of a heroin overdose in 2013, and Salling, who died by suicide at age 35, after pleading guilty to child pornography charges.  

Glee centered on the William McKinley High School Glee club and starred Michele, Morrison, Monteith, Criss, Chris Colfer, Lynch, Amber Riley, Salling, Morris and Kevin McHale.
