Sweetin and Hodak met through mutual friends and announced their engagement in January 2016 after two years of dating.

“We reconnected a little over two years ago,” Sweetin, 35, told PEOPLE of Hodak shortly before their engagement. “It’s been really good ever since.”

Hodak was often seen with Sweetin at red carpet events promoting her Full House spin-off Fuller House.

“He’s super excited and he watched Full House growing up,” Sweetin previously said. “It was something kids our age watched and he really loves it.”
