Is John Mayer really dating Kat Stickler? Here’s how they met

Looks like John Mayer might have a new romance in his life. Well… according to Us Weekly, the singer-songwriter has been dating influencer Kat Stickler, though sources say things are “still very new” and not serious yet.

Apparently, the two first connected online, and John, known for his star-studded dating history, was the one who sought her out and pursued her.

A source told the outlet (US Weekly):

“John sought her out and pursued her. Kat just broke up with someone she had been dating for a few months and thought it would be fun to date again.”

Is John Mayer Really Dating Kat Stickler?

Yes; multiple reports confirm that John Mayer, 47, and Kat Stickler, 30, are dating. They were first spotted together on October 12, 2025, dining at Fly Fish in New York City, according to DeuxMoi.

It’s early days, but Mayer has been “actively pursuing her,” reportedly texting and inviting her out often.

However, Kat isn’t calling it a serious relationship just yet. Sources close to her say she’s “having fun” and “seeing where it goes.”

How Did John Mayer and Kat Stickler Meet?

The pair’s paths crossed online, according to insiders. John reached out after Kat’s October 2024 breakup with Bachelor Nation’s Jason Tartick, which ended after nearly six months of dating.

Kat had recently started getting back into the dating scene, while John was reportedly open about wanting to settle down; having said in a 2024 interview,

“I absolutely want to be married. I so badly want to get married if only for my wife to just know in her heart, like, ‘John will know what to do.’”

Who Is Kat Stickler?

Kat Stickler is a popular TikTok and Instagram creator, known for her funny and relatable videos about parenting, relationships, and everyday life.
She’s also a mom to daughter MK, whom she shares with her ex-husband, Mike Stickler.

Kat’s following grew after her viral skits and honest takes on single motherhood. Recently, she was in the spotlight for her short-lived relationship with Jason Tartick, the former Bachelorette contestant.

When Did Kat Stickler and Jason Tartick Break Up?

Kat and Jason split in October 2024, after dating for nearly six months. Jason shared at the time that their relationship “ended amicably,” writing on Instagram,

“Kat has brought me so much happiness and light. I will forever be grateful for her and [her daughter] MK.”

Kat later said in a video that their time together was “not love wasted.”

By January 2025, Jason revealed that the breakup was “so abrupt” and “unexpected,” describing that period as a “really hard month.”

Is John Mayer Ready for Marriage?

Interestingly, yes; at least, that’s what he said just last year.

In a 2024 interview with Kelly Rizzo on her Comfort Food podcast, Mayer opened up about his desire to get married, saying:

“People don’t think I want to be married. I absolutely want to be married. I just think that level of being relied on is the hottest thing in the world to me.”

So, while his new relationship with Kat Stickler might not be serious yet, it’s clear that marriage is still on John’s mind.

Are John Mayer and Kat Stickler Still Together?

As of October 2025, yes; but things remain casual. The two are reportedly “enjoying each other’s company” while taking things slow.

Neither John nor Kat has publicly commented on the relationship yet, but fans have already started speculating after spotting them out together.

Um… neither Kat Stickler nor John Mayer is Gen Z, but, hey: The GenZStars Team doesnʼt DISCRIMINATE, especially not against Millennials! XD
