Nathaniel Archibald was born to Howard Archibald, a successful business magnate, and Anne Archibald. Nate is close friends with Chuck Bass, with whom he attends the prestigious St. Jude's School for Boys. Nate has been with girlfriend Blair Waldorf "since kindergarten". For the first half of the season he secretly harbors a lust for Blair's best friend, Serena Van der Woodsen, with whom he had a passionate one night stand. This infatuation seems to have fizzled toward the latter half of the season, as he realizes that it's Blair he loves.
