“It was really a lovely dinner. I have the most amazing, close knit group of friends. We have a ridiculously fun time together,” she told Us at the Rookie USA Fashion Show in Hollywood. “My boyfriend had come out from New York for a few days.”

Sweetin’s daughter Beatrix — who walked the runway at Thursday night’s show — also chimed in. “And the teddy bear mommy,” the 7-year-old exclaimed. “It said ‘hi babe’ with a heart on it. [And the bear wore] a white t-shirt.” To which Sweetin confirmed: “Yes, he did, That’s true.”
Us Weekly confirmed on Valentine’s Day that the Full House alum is officially taken. “They have been dating since November,” a source told Us about the couple. Sweetin also gushed over him on social media that same day.
“Find someone who you can share this kind of love with … Someone who doesn’t just show you they love you one day a year … Who isn’t afraid to look silly when they tell you they love you … Who doesn’t judge you for past mistakes, but who wants to build a better future together … Who builds you up and never makes you feel small … Who supports your dreams and hopes and desires, and also has those of their own,” she wrote alongside a photo collage of the two.
