Rudy Pankow, Madison Bailey Deny Feud Rumors

Speculation surrounding a supposed feud between Outer Banks stars Rudy Pankow and Madison Bailey has been debunked by sources close to the actors, despite fans believing otherwise due to perceived changes in their social media interactions following new relationships. Rumors intensified with the release of season 4, where some fans theorized that body doubles were used in romantic scenes between their characters, but showrunners confirmed that these concerns were unfounded. Additionally, Pankow's character, JJ, was killed off in episode 10, leading to further speculation about on-set drama; however, the show's co-creator stated that this storyline was planned from the beginning. Madison Bailey expressed her emotional support for Pankow during discussions of his exit, further dismissing any notions of a rift. The actors have consistently defended their relationships and clarified that their off-screen dynamics remain strong. As such, fans will have to look to the show for drama as the final season approaches.
