As soon as news broke that Elvis star and Hollywood heartthrob Austin Butler was dating Kaia Gerber, the model and actress daughter of Cindy Crawford, fans were obsessed.
Despite keeping their relationship largely out of the public eye, fans have kept close tabs on the pair as their relationship moved from strength to strength.
Now, as engagement rumours begin to swirl, WHO digs deep into the cute Hollywood 'It' couple.
How did Austin Butler and Kaia Gerber meet?
We don't know exactly *how* the cute couple met, but rumours first started circulating in December 2021 that the pair were dating after they were spotted attending a yoga class together.
"They are low-key dating," a source told Us Weekly at the time, "It's still very new."
The relationship began almost a year after the Elvis actor broke up from his long-time partner Vanessa Hudgens and Kaia split from Aussie actor Jacob Elordi.
They were spotted together numerous times before making their red carpet debut at the Met Gala in May 2022.
Austin Butler and Kaia Gerber's age gap
Many fans were curious about Austin Butler and Kaia Gerber's age gap when news first broke about their relationship. The two share a 10-year age gap, with Kaia and Austin aged 20 and 30 respectively when they first began dating.
The now 21-year-old model has previously opened up about her choice to date older men after being linked to a then-26-year-old Pete Davidson when she was 19.
“I found myself in situations where I was, like, I actually don’t have the life experience that I need to handle this. You know, I was doing fashion month, but I was so young I had kissed, like, only one person. I had never had a high school sweetheart or anything,” she told Vogue in an interview about her romantic past.
She also explained that she ended up dating “older people,” because that's who she was surrounded by in the world of fashion.
“I got put in situations where one day I’d wake up and be like, How did I get here? I have no idea what I’m doing, and I need help,” she added. “And being able to ask for that help was amazing. That’s what real growing up means, not being afraid to ask. The pair have been spotted on a number of red carpets since their relationship begun.
