Stranger Things has established the love triangle between Nancy (Natalia Dyer), Steve (Jonathan Keery), and Jonathan (Charlie Heaton). As Natalie seems confused about her feelings after spending some time with Steve in Stranger Things Season 4, fans want a different pairing for the aspiring journalist in Stranger Things Season 5, and it’s surprising to know who.

The show’s writers recently made a post on Twitter about Nancy and Jonathan, but it earned unexpected replies. Instead of the usual excitement of seeing the two together, fans want to see more of Nancy and Robin (Maya Hawke), and they’re rooting for them in Stranger Things Season 5.

Robin and Nancy’s Duo in Stranger Things Season 4

Robin and Nancy came together in the fourth season to investigate the mystery surrounding Victor Creel (Robert Englund).

Though they seemed awkward initially, they eventually worked perfectly together, earning a positive response from their newfound friendship.

It was also the first time that Nancy was seen with a female companion after the untimely death of her best friend, Barbara (Shannon Purser), in the first season. Robin, alternatively, is often seen together with Steve.

Though a new female friendship looks promising in the series, fans seem to pick up the romantic tension between the two. Aside from being opposite to each other, it’s also good to note that Robin is attracted to women.

In fact, she has a crush on Vickie (Amybeth McNulty), the clarinet player of Hawkins High School’s marching band.

Will a Robin-Nancy Romance Happen in Stranger Things Season 5?

According to ScreenRant, it’s highly unlikely that Stranger Things Season 5 will delve into the possible romance between Robin and Nancy.

The last four seasons have strongly established the love story of Steve, Nancy, and Jonathan, so it’s impossible to introduce a new pairing, especially since the show is now in its last and final season.

Sure, they have the chemistry, but they still have a weak foundation compared to the other couples in the series, given that they only interacted on-screen in the previous season.

However, as Stranger Things Season 5 will feature a time jump, Nancy and Robin may have grown closer together and bonded over the things they went through in the fourth season and beyond, but their relationship may just end there.
