Joe Manganiello and Caitlin O’Connor are taking their romance to the next level. After moving in together, the couple made it Instagram official with the “Magic Mike” actor sharing a series of images on the platform. Among the photos was a loving selfie of the pair, making it the first time that Manganiello has publicly acknowledged their relationship on social media. This served as confirmation for eagle-eyed fans who noticed the picture and, surely, left them elated.

Manganiello captioned his post acknowledging his busy week promoting his upcoming game show, getting his tattoos touched up, and filming a music video with a friend. But the highlight was the couple’s Valentine’s Day celebration, with a string of adorable snaps showing them enjoying the day together. The photos included the couple posing for a selfie at a Tool concert in Los Angeles and shots of them with roses and chocolates, definitely making it a swoon-worthy Valentine’s Day experience.

This public declaration of love on Instagram comes following reports that the couple has moved in together. It was revealed that Manganiello and O’Connor are “very much in love” and have connected over their shared Pittsburgh roots and love for travel. Furthermore, Manganiello’s dog, Bubbles, has seemingly given his approval to O’Connor, making the move-in even more seamless. Though an insider disclosed that O’Connor still has her own place, the couple seems to be taking positive steps in their blossoming relationship.

This latest romantic development follows quickly after Manganiello’s divorce from Colombian actress Sofía Vergara. The exes finalized their divorce earlier this month. In July 2023, Vergara and Manganiello announced that they were going their separate ways after seven years of marriage. Despite rumors swirling around their split, Vergara later emphasized that they chose to divorce because they wanted different things in life. Since then, Vergara has moved on with orthopedic surgeon Justin Saliman. The actress was first seen with Saliman in October 2023.

Overall, the love lives of both Manganiello and Vergara seem to be moving in positive directions. As fans continue to adore Manganiello’s ever-enthralling career, there’s no doubt that they will eagerly follow along with his romantic journey with O’Connor. The adorable Instagram post is further evidence that Manganiello is celebrating this new chapter in his life and, given their deep connection, fans may just be witnessing the blossoming of a new power couple in Hollywood.
