As you watch To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before for the nth time and stare at his face endlessly (OMG guilty!), did you ever wonder about the story behind Noah Centineo’s face scar? 

In a puppy interview with Buzzfeed, Noah casually shared the story of when he was attacked by a dog when he was six years old. How ironic is this interview even? 

Anyway, he said that the dog ripped a hole in his face. “So you could see my teeth, my gums, and all the way through my tongue to the other side,” Noah said. “There was a massive gaping hole.” 

Noah did not blame the dog at all and continued to say, “The dog didn’t know what it was doing. I specifically remember him lunging, being pulled away from him, and then looking back and seeing him cock his head like he didn’t really understand what happened. Some people were like, ‘Do you wanna put the dog down?’ I was crying, like, ‘No, he didn’t mean to do it.’” A collective awwww, please. 

His parents even got him a huge dog named Mackenzie a few weeks after the accident. “Getting a dog, a bigger dog, after that was great. And now, the bigger the dog, the better.” 

Okay, now we all know the story behind that scar on his face. And is it wrong to feel a warm feeling in my heart after knowing this? Let us know if you felt the same.
