The 7 Cutest Celebrity Couple Moments of 2017
Another year, another crop of adorable couples quotes and aww-worthy photo opps.
In 2017, we were graced with a handful of new confirmed couples, new rumored couples and one incredible reunion we've been hoping for since 2015. Oh, and we also had the dependable duos who continued proving it is possible to find true love in Hollywood.
Get your heart-eyes ready, and keep scrolling for what we consider—in no particular order—the seven cutest celebrity couples moments of 2017:
1. When Zayn Malik Commented Adorably to Gigi Hadid During a Joint Interview
Gigi has never been shy about her love for two-year boyfriend Zayn, but it was especially adorable back in March when her beau, who is much more shy in the public eye, gave a one-word answer in a Versace campaign video that had our hearts melting.
"When you're alone, who do you want next to you?" Gigi asks in the video, which features the two of them. Zayn's simple "you" reply was all we needed to hear for our faith in this couple to skyrocket. *swoon*

2. When Dove Cameron Went on a Minutes-Long Gushing Spree About BF Thomas Doherty
Dove—who recently told us her parents finally met her beau—has been dating her Descendants 2 costar for a year, and their relationship blossomed in no time.
Although the actress opened up early on about their mutual adoration, it wasn't until a recent junket that she let her thoughts run free!
"He's walking around with that face, like, how dare he? she said, jokingly. "No one should be made like that—shoutout to Thomas and his parents. I do remember that terrifying feeling when you're starting to fall in love with someone. He's the most beautiful person on the face of the planet—not physically, but emotionally. Like I am not shy about saying he's the most perfect thing under the sun."
If that doesn't say #boyfriendgoals, we don't know what does!
3. When Becky G Said Boyfriend Sebastian Lletget Is Her Soulmate
Becky G already has a lot to celebrate in 2017 with the success of her Spanish single "Mayores," but to top it off, she couldn't be more in love with Sebastian Lletget, her boyfriend of a year-and-a-half. In a recent interview, the Power Rangers actress gushed that "it feels like" they're soulmates, and that while an engagement isn't necessarily imminent, if he popped the question, she would "of course" say yes!
But that's not all. The rising starlet had plenty other words of praise for her professional soccer-playing beau. Watch the video below and cue the awws.
4. When Lili Reinhart Wrote a Mushy Instagram Ode to Cole Sprouse on His Birthday
If there's one couple (on-screen and off) we've shipped most this year, we've made no secret that it's Bughead—aka Betty and Jughead, aka, Lili Reinhart and Cole Sprouse, our fave Riverdale duo.
Just when we thought they couldn't possibly get any cuter on camera, Lili penned the sweetest ode to her costar on his birthday.
"To the man who has showed me more beautiful places in this past year than I have ever seen in my whole life," Lili said. "Happy birthday, Cole. Thank you for all of the adventures and here's to many more."
While the pair destroys us with their are-they-or-aren't-they speculation, one thing's been proven: They care about each other… a lot. And for that in itself, we're melting.
5. When Miley Cyrus Talked About Liam Hemsworth Inspiring Her Song 'Malibu'
Miley and Liam seem like they couldn't be happier together right now, but as the singer candidly mentioned in an interview earlier this year, it took a long time to get from where they were in 2013 to where they are in the present.
"I needed to change so much," she admitted. "And changing with someone else not changing like that is too hard. Suddenly you're like, 'I don't recognize you anymore.' We had to refall for each other."
The fact that they fell for each other again, even after an intense transformation, really makes us believe in love.
Reflecting on the breakout single from her latest album Younger Now, Miley confirmed the light and airy "Malibu" is about her relationship with the actor, explaining, "They're going to talk about me if I come out of a restaurant with Liam. So why not put the power back in my relationship and say, 'This is how I feel?' "
6. When Selena Gomez and The Weeknd Showed Major PDA at the Met Gala
Selena and The Weeknd just couldn't keep their hands to themselves during their almost-one-year relationship.
But even though you could spot them showing PDA on the reg, there was one moment in particular that stood out to fans the most. The then-couple definitely stole the show at the 2017 Met Gala, where they not only made their official debut as a couple, but they were kissing each other all night and looked so in love.
While they didn't make it to see 2018 (as a couple), we've gotta say their lovey-dovey hangouts this year definitely fulfilled our celeb couples fix.
7. When Jelena Had Their First Public Kiss Since Reuniting
Last, but certainly not least, 2017 ended with a bombshell reunion that had everyone talking. Very shortly following Selena and The Weeknd's shocking split, Selena and her ex, Justin Bieber, became rejoined at the hip, after splitting in 2015. As of a little more than a month ago, the pair has been photographed everywhere—at church, on bike rides, in restaurants, in Seattle.
But none of these outings compares to when they were spotted kissing publicly for the first time since reportedly getting back together. The adorable moment was captured when the Biebs took a quick break from his hockey game, and once the sweet smooch on the lips was captured, fans of the off-and-on pair (aka us) went wild.
Jake Miller's love life didn't make the cut this year, but that doesn't mean we don't enjoy staring at THESE photos of him looking good doing anything!
