After receiving flack from fans, Francetic also defended their relationship on Twitter, writing: “The funny part is that every time we tell someone the actual timeline in person, ‘scandalous’ is never the word they use. Too bad we aren’t allowed to tell the truth on social media…”

Since they went public with their relationship, the couple have shown off plenty of PDA on social media.

“I am my most happy and content self when surrounded by the ocean. So you must understand, it’s not the blue of ocean I see in your eyes. It’s love, pure love,” gushed Francetic on Instagram last fall.

Griffin has also shared photos of her boyfriend with her kids (from a previous relationship) and recently thanked him for being so supportive.
