Ever since photos surfaced of Skeet Ulrich and Lucy Hale out on a date earlier this week, the Internet has been going wild about the possibility of this new celebrity couple. Well, a source just confirmed to E! News that Lucy and Skeet are the real deal and apparently things are going very well in their relationship so far.

"They are both really into each other and have been dating for about a month," the source told E!. Apparently, the pair met through mutual friends. Many were guessing they could have met through their CW connections since both of them previously starred on shows in the Archie-verse and it seems like that definitely could have been the case. "They know a lot of the same people in the acting circle and connected recently."

Right now, the relationship is still "pretty casual," but the source says the two have been hanging out a lot over the past few weeks. "They spend a lot of time at each other's homes just hanging out and being low key," they said. "Lucy thinks Skeet is very charming and sweet. She likes that he is a dedicated dad." Skeet has 19-year-old twins, Naiia and Jakob, with his ex-wife Georgina Cates. Before Lucy, Skeet was dating Australian Model Megan Blake Irwin, though they split in August 2020.

Lucy, meanwhile, was previously connected to Bachelor star Colton Underwood, though that relationship was never confirmed.

As of now, neither Skeet nor Lucy have commented on the relationship publicly.
