Love life and boyfriend

This is mostly why there are various rumors circulating the internet concerning both her current relationship status, and her sexual orientation.
Many of Madison’s fans believe her to be a lesbian, claiming that this is why she avoids talking about her past and present relationships; a fan has also claimed to have seen Madison kissing her female friend at a party in Los Angeles, California, but no evidence has been provided to support these claims, nor has Madison addressed the rumors.
There are also some who believe that she’s today in a relationship with an American non-celebrity man, but prefers to keep him away from media because of how her career could affect their relationship; this hasn’t been confirmed either.
