Whether you already know him because the actor who performs Elvis in Baz Luhrmann’s 2022 movie Elvis or — like me — as the college hottie in each late 2000s youngsters’s TV present, that is Austin Butler.
Recently, a TikTok exhibiting photographs of Austin’s ex-girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens and present girlfriend Kaia Gerber assembly for the primary time went viral. Now, you may be questioning why such a seemingly harmless and, TBH, random interplay would garner such a response. Well, enable me to offer you some backstory…
Austin and Vanessa met on the set of High School Musical, and began courting a pair years later in 2011. They had been collectively for eight years and reportedly known as it quits in early 2020.
In late 2021, Austin and Kaia started sparking courting rumors, earlier than making issues official on the 2022 Met Gala.
Austin and Kaia have a ten 12 months age hole, as he’s presently 31 and she or he is 21. In that viral TikTok, some outdated photos from the High School Musical 2 crimson carpet had been unearthed and…properly…nothing illustrates simply how massive their age hole is than these photographs.
Pictured under is Austin’s ex-girlfriend Vanessa — who was 19 — assembly his now-girlfriend Kaia, who was simply 6 years outdated on the time.
Like, let’s take a second to course of this. Kaia — a literal baby — who was most likely as obsessive about Vanessa singing Breaking Free as I used to be in 2007, is being introduced out to satisfy Vanessa by her MOM — who, in fact, is Cindy Crawford — as a result of she’s too younger to be there alone!
Here’s one other angle of them collectively, so you’ll be able to actually soak in the truth that Kaia is presently simply two years older than Vanessa was in these photographs.
Listen, I’m not joking once I say my jaw dropped once I first noticed this video. And given the feedback on it, it looks as if I’m not alone in that.
