We're All Obsessed With Outer Banks' Madison Bailey & Here's Why

She's the BFF we all wish we had. - by Chanelle Mansour
  • 27 Jul 2021

She plays a total badass on Netflix's beach-side series Outer Banks, and we're happy to confirm that Madison Bailey is as cool as she is on-screen as she is in real life.

WATCH BELOW: First look at Outer Banks season two

In light of Outer Banks returning to our screens for season two this Friday on July 30, we decided to shine a light on our fave Pogue Madison, who is the best friend anyone wishes they had.

Her character Kiara, or "Kie", is incredibly loyal to her friends John B, JJ and Pope, with their friendship so solid that it even goes beyond the show and their characters.

That's right, Madison and her fellow co-stars Chase Stokes, Jonathan Daviss and Rudy Pankow are just as close as their characters are in the show.

They constantly share fun snaps of them hanging out together behind the scenes, and it just confirms what we all already know: the cast of Outer Banks are cool as they appear to be.

So, scroll down to know everything there is to know about Madison, who is no doubt one of our favourite stars of the show.

Who is Madison Bailey?

As we've already established above, Madison is a talented actress who currently stars in Outer Banks.

Her character Kiara comes from a very wealthy family, but you wouldn't know it by looking at her. Especially considering she'd much rather spend her time with the Pogues than anyone in her usual social circles.

Outside of her character, Madison has a total knack for style, with her Instagram filled with gorgeous fits that we all secretly wish we had in our closet right now.

And acting isn't her only talent, where she told Seventeen mag that she can also sing too!

"I’ve been singing since I could talk," she told the magazine.

She's not only a talented actress, but can also sing.

How old is Madison Bailey?

Madison is 22-years-old, and was born in 1999 on January 29. She spent her birthday this year in "a good old fashioned North Carolina" style, as she shared a series of snaps of her with horses surrounded by nature.

Is Madison Bailey single?

Nope. Madison is in a happy relationship with Basketball player Mariah Linney, where the pair made their relationship offical via TikTok last year

And ever since, Madison and Mariah have been sharing the sweetest couple snaps on Instagram.

You can follow her on IG over at @madisonbaileybabe.

What other TV shows and films has Madison Bailey been in?

Before starring in Outer Banks, Madison had a recurring role in Black Lightning, where she played Wendy Hernandez.

She also has a role in the American Horror Story spin-off American Horror Stories as Kelley.

Her very first acting gig dates back to 2015, where Madison played Caroline on the series Constantine.

And with a talent like hers, we expect to see Madison continue to score more roles in the future. So make sure to keep an eye out for this star.
