Cutest Celebrity Couples of 2017
2017 is on its way out, and it has definitely been a year. To describe it as a dumpster fire would be pretty accurate; however, there were some glimmers of hope. Namely, love. Yes, despite some of the high-profile breakups of the year, several other celebrities found their way to each other’s hearts.
Some star-studded relationships sealed the deal with an engagement (Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas), while other couples reunited after years apart (ahem, #Jelena). But no matter the circumstances, all of these Hollywood romances have one thing in common: they made us believe in love again. Ahead, check out some of the strongest couples of 2017, from rumored hookups to marriages going strong.

Jelena shippers had a field day this fall when it looked like Selena and Justin would be reuniting for real — something that fans have dreamed of for years. And there have even been recent whispers that Justin might even propose to Selena, which would probably cause both of their fandoms to spontaneously combust from excitement.

Gigi and Zayn continue to be one of the most adorable celebrity couples of all time. They recently celebrated their two-year anniversary, and we honestly wouldn't be surprised if these two are together forever.

Obviously any list of celebrity couples needs to include Kimye, who recently announced that they are expanding their family and welcoming a third child together. If North and Saint are any indication, their third child is going to be a pretty glamorous baby — and we can't wait to find out the name.

Longtime couple Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi recently celebrated their ninth wedding anniversary, which is pretty much the definition of relationship goals. Ellen wrote a touching tribute to her wife on Instagram in honor of the milestone, while sharing a sweet black-and-white photo from their big day. “Being her wife is the greatest thing I am,” she added. Brb, swooning.

Chloë Grace Moretz and Brooklyn Beckham seemed to get back together earlier this year, after fans noticed a little heart emoji that seemed to say a lot. Since then, they’ve been seen together a lot in public, including a really sweet camping date where they roasted s’mores and made a bonfire. Oh, and we're still wondering what those matching rings were all about!

Although J.Lo and A-Rod have only been together for a few months, they’ve already become a pretty high-profile couple — and a stylish one at that. The pair is often spotted on the town for date nights, or completely glammed up for the red carpet.

Earlier this spring, Colton Haynes announced his engagement to Jeff Leatham — and then he proposed back to Jeff two months later. Honestly, is there anything better than a double proposal? The two stars got married this fall, and the clips from the wedding are truly worthy of melting a thousand hearts.

Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas got engaged earlier this fall, when the singer-songwriter surprised the Game of Thrones actress with a gorgeous (and expensive) diamond ring. The two seem super-happy together, and Joe’s brother Nick even commented that Sophie is “the love of his life.” Awww.

Shay Mitchell has often been quiet about her relationship, but her social media says otherwise. Just a few months ago, she documented a goals-worthy vacation with her rumored BF, Matte Babel, and he has also made an appearance on her Snapchat. Hey, you know what they say. The couple that puppy-filters together, stays together.

Sam Smith and Brandon Flynn set off dating rumors when they were seen hanging out in New York City together earlier this fall. Things only intensified when fans noticed the two stars leaving cute comments on one another’s Instagrams, and Brandon even shared that he was listening to Sam’s music nonstop. Too sweet!

Earlier this year, rumors started swirling that Taylor Swift might have found a new beau in British actor Joe Alwyn. Since then, they’ve been spotted wearing matching hoodies, and fans are pretty convinced that a lot of her new music contains romantic lyrics dedicated to him.

Fans have long suspected that Stranger Things stars Natalia Dyer and Charlie Heaton are an IRL couple, and it seems as though those rumors are definitely possible. The two actors were recently seen on the red carpet together at the 2017 Fashion Awards, where they were photographed arm-in-arm. Hey, if they can navigate the Upside Down together...they can tackle anything, right?

Speaking of on-screen couples, Riverdale fans have pretty much lost their minds trying to prove that Lili Reinhart and Cole Sprouse are a thing. The two stars hang out all the time and aren't shy about sharing their adventures on social media (like the time they went to a diner for eggs and toast at one in the morning). Nevertheless, Cole and Lili have remained pretty hush-hush about their relationship status, with both stars emphasizing a need for space and privacy. Fair enough.

At the end of 2016, Kelsea Ballerini announced her engagement to Morgan Evans with a sweet Instagram photo, and the two country stars recently tied the knot. They exchanged vows next to the ocean, and Kelsea later told People that their relationship works so well because of how much they respect one another's careers. “I think that makes for a really full life,” she said, “when you can do everything that you want, and then share it with someone.”

Chrissy Teigen and John Legend are definitely one of the most down-to-earth celeb couples of our time, and we can’t get enough of the model’s running commentary about married life on Twitter. The two stars keep it real, like the time Chrissy traded a pair of John’s underwear in exchange for a banana bread recipe, and we’re so excited that little Luna is getting a sibling in the near future. We already know that the photo shoots will be epic.
