The Tracker fandom was thrown into a frenzy this week after two major cast members—whose on-screen chemistry has been praised since the show’s premiere—suddenly unfollowed each other on Instagram. What might seem like a harmless social-media shift has now spiraled into a full-blown speculation storm, with fans convinced a secret feud is unfolding behind the scenes of Justin Hartley’s hit CBS series.
The unfollowing was first noticed by a fan account dedicated to tracking the cast’s online interactions. Within minutes, screenshots spread across Twitter, TikTok, and Reddit, prompting a wave of theories ranging from subtle tension to a total on-set meltdown. The two actors—both series regulars—had previously liked each other’s posts, shared behind-the-scenes photos together, and even commented playfully during the Season 2 press run. Their sudden silence didn’t go unnoticed.
One insider claims the tension started weeks earlier, during a particularly demanding night shoot that required multiple rewrites and high-pressure reshoots. According to this source, a disagreement erupted when one actor felt their character’s arc was being overshadowed in favor of the other’s storyline. “It was small at first,” the insider said. “But it built up. By the end of the night, you could tell something had changed between them.”
Another production source went even further, describing the atmosphere during filming as “awkward in a way it never was before.” They claim the two actors began keeping their distance between takes, no longer reviewing scenes together, and interacting only when absolutely necessary. “Everyone noticed,” the source added. “You can’t fake energy on set. Something was definitely off.”
Fueling the rumor fire, fans pointed out that one of the actors had recently deleted several older photos featuring the other—posts that had once been favorites among the fandom. Even more suspicious, both stars avoided tagging each other or reacting to any cast-related content after the unfollowing. For a show known for its tight-knit ensemble, the silence was deafening.
Some fans believe this feud might be connected to a storyline shift allegedly planned for the upcoming episodes. Rumors have circulated that one character will receive a major plot twist, potentially impacting the other’s relevance or screen time. Writers have reportedly been in heated discussions about restructuring emotional arcs, and one insider hinted that “not everyone agreed with the direction.”
Of course, not all theories point to jealousy or professional rivalry. A few fans suspect a personal disagreement may have sparked the division—perhaps related to indirect comments made in interviews, a disagreement during a promotional shoot, or even a clash of personalities under stress. Whatever the cause, the timing is undeniably suspicious.
CBS has not commented on the situation, and both actors have remained completely silent online, neither addressing the unfollowing nor offering any hint of reconciliation. The lack of clarity has only amplified the drama, with fans refreshing the actors’ profiles daily to monitor any new changes.
On forums, users are split. Some insist the feud is temporary—“Actors fight, they get over it.” Others are convinced this rift could affect the chemistry of upcoming episodes or even alter the show’s long-term dynamic. “You can’t hide real tension,” one fan wrote. “If they’re really done with each other, it’s going to show on screen.”
For now, the only thing certain is that the unfollowing has become the newest and juiciest mystery surrounding Tracker. As filming continues and more eyes turn to the cast’s social-media patterns, fans are watching closely, wondering if this drama will stay online… or spill directly onto the set.
And until one of them breaks the silence, the question remains:
What really happened between the two Tracker stars—and is their secret feud just beginning?
