Keltie Reid
Keltie Victoria Reid is a main character in Post Millennials. She is an aspiring photographer attending Illinois University with a double major in photography and journalism. She graduated from Eleanor Roosevelt High School in Time For Me To Fly. She spent most of her days in high school focused on friendship drama and boy drama.

Keltie is often stereotyped as growing up with the perfect suburban life. She was raised by Marcus and Karen Reid and grew up alongside her older sister Kirstin. Up until her parents' divorce in Born To Be Wild, Keltie lived a fairly sheltered life, oblivious to the challenges faced by many of her classmates, including her longstanding boyfriend and best friend Jackson Finch. However, after her parents' divorce, she came to realize how privileged her childhood was and slowly becomes more aware of her own behaviors. She has always been close with her sister, Kirstin, but the two grow much closer after Kirstin divorces her husband, Damon. Keltie ends up spending a lot of time assisting Kirstin in raising her son, Noah, and Keltie becomes very close with Noah in the process.

As for relationships, Keltie often found herself mixed up in messy love triangles. Her primary romantic interests throughout the series are Austin Matlock, Jackson Finch, Duncan Foster, and Nate Saracen. After pining after Austin for years, Keltie and Austin realize they are better off as friends and Keltie falls for Jackson. The two struggle to build a healthy romance for several seasons on and off.

Keltie's closest friends change throughout the series. At the start of season one, Keltie is very close with her two best friends Dylan Fisher and Ana Jalil. However, drama quickly ensues as Ana falls into a rival friend group. The three eventually grow apart as Keltie forms a close friendship with Jackson. However, when the relationship turns romantic, Keltie's romance with Austin shifts into a strong and supportive friendship. In addition to her longstanding friendship with Austin, Keltie becomes close friends with Jackson's younger sister Sophie Finch. This friendship begins as Keltie mentoring Sophie and helping her to cope with reuniting with her brother. However, the friendship evolves into a very strong sisterly bond.

Keltie has a toxic rivalry with her fellow classmate Heather Hoffman. The rivalry began while fighting over their mutual crush on Austin. Keltie holds a grudge against Heather for most of the series and the two go back and forth stabbing each other in the back. By default, Keltie hates Heather's best friend Olive Cohen as well. She is portrayed by actress Ginny Gardner.
