Isabel Machado’s net worth is not publicly confirmed. She is an actress and singer building her career in New York’s independent film and theater scenes, best known publicly as the longtime girlfriend of actor Christopher Briney, star of Amazon Prime’s The Summer I Turned Pretty.
Isabel Rose Machado was born on February 22, 1998, in Chicago, Illinois. She describes herself as Chicago-born and New York-based, and relocated to New York City to pursue professional acting training. She enrolled at Pace University in New York, graduating in 2020 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Acting, specializing in film, television, voiceover, and commercial work. It was at Pace that she met her future boyfriend Christopher Briney when they were both students in the same acting program — they started as friends before becoming roommates and eventually a couple.
Isabel Machado is a trained actress and singer with a classical background in musical theater. She is a trained first soprano capable of reaching a high G note, and is trained in ballet, jazz, and modern dance, having attended the Cecchetti Council of America for additional dance training. She has appeared in a handful of independent and short films, collaborated with Briney on the short film Reasons to be Pretty (2021), and has built her theater resume with productions including Hairspray (in which she played Tammy in Hudson Valley, New York), Anne of Green Gables, The Art of Peaking Too Soon, and If We Were Birds. She also lists piano performance among her professional skills. Off-screen, she has worked in the service industry and as an event services agent in New York City.
Isabel Machado and Christopher Briney began dating on June 23, 2021, after meeting as students at Pace University and spending a year as roommates and close friends. Machado accompanied Briney to his first major red carpet event — the New York premiere of The Summer I Turned Pretty in June 2022 — and has been by his side at virtually every major career milestone since, including the Toronto International Film Festival (2022), the Mean Girls premiere (2024), the 2025 US Open, and the 2026 Prada spring/summer campaign cocktail party. Briney has repeatedly spoken about their relationship in effusive terms, telling Access Hollywood, “I couldn’t do anything without her. I don’t think I could wake up without her.” See also: Christopher Briney Net Worth
