How Did the Love Birds Meet?

The couple who seemed to have had a fair eventful share of heartbreak shared a story of how they first met. She and Stamos first met on set in 2011, where they both graduated in an episode of the film Law and Order.

According to Stamos, he played the role of a self-centered man who chose to have his offspring spread around. He got over 60 kids or more, and Caitlin happened to be one of the ladies he wanted to trick into having a baby with.

The first meeting yielded no spark between the two of them as McHugh was in another relationship at that time. Years on, they happened to find themselves on another set.

McHugh wasn’t featured on this set, and her roommate was alongside Stamos. Her roommate starred in an episode of Fuller House, and Caitlin was among the audience.

Their meeting was quite an interesting one as Stomas teased McHugh of stalking him when they first bumped into each other again. Her reply to Stamos was, “No, I haven’t thought of you twice.”

The romance between the cute stars began shortly after, and they got engaged in the year 2017 in Caitlin’s favorite place, Disneyland. Her love for Disneyland knows no bounds, as many of her posted photos show she visits regularly.

She often goes there in one outfit or another, portraying a Disney character. The romance does not stop at home as her husband has often been cited to always accompany her to all things Disney-related.

Stories had it that Stomas has always had it good taking care of and handling kids. He always wanted a kid of his own, and now he has it with his beloved wife, with whom they keep flooding the streets of Instagram with cute family photos.

Their baby countdown began just two months after their engagement, and in 2018, the couple officially got married in studio city located in California. Their age difference has not once been considered any barrier to the union between these cute couples.

We may have been hearing heartbreaking stories of some stars getting in and out of the marriage, but this couple is surely not one of them. They seem so loved up, and such an alliance is something their fans would admire so much.

Aside From Acting, They Share the Same Love for Charity

Stamos and his wife, Caitlin, have had a partnership with My Saint My Hero, which is a jewelry company. Their partnership was centered on the battle against child molestation or abuse.
