Patrick Luwis is a rising actor recognized for his portrayal of Axel Kovacevic in the widely acclaimed Netflix series Cobra Kai, which has just launched its sixth season.
In the series, Luwis’s character has feelings for Samantha LaRusso, played by Mary Mouser. However, Samantha is in love with Miguel Diaz, portrayed by Xolo Maridueña, which complicates Luwis’s one-sided lover.

For instance, Patrick made his debut on Elle’s Instagram on August 12, 2021. She shared a photo of them locking lips with the caption, “Virginia is for lovers.”
Later, on December 19 of the same year, she posted a sweet picture of herself in the arms of the Cobra Kai actor to celebrate his birthday, describing him as “the kindest person I know.”
Conversely, Elle first appeared on Patrick’s Instagram on January 4, 2022. The photos showed the couple enjoying themselves as Patrick captioned one post, “Making our way downtown.”
