Hilary Duff and Matthew Koma are one of Hollywood’s most adorable couples.

Scroll down to see a timeline of Duff and Koma’s relationship.
The pair hit it off in 2015 — one year after Duff split from ex-husband Mike Comrie, with whom she shares son Luca — while collaborating on the Lizzie McGuire alum’s album Breathe In. Breathe Out. "They had great chemistry in the studio," a source close to Duff told Us at the time. "Hilary thinks Matt is very talented and cute."

“I love this moment so much,” Duff wrote alongside a photo of her and Koma eating on their wedding day, in honor of their one-year anniversary in December 2020. “Matt and I were both too nervous to eat the day of our wedding .. this is directly after .... we slammed a plate of apps someone brought us before taking pictures and this pretty much sums us up ... Snacking through life, dreaming about dinner at 7 am and wrangling kids. Oh, and dodging covid the first year of marriage😕. Always with you babe. For you. Over and over I choose you and this ♥️ thank you for being a damn good man.”
The New York native celebrated the special day with his own Instagram tribute, writing, “Happy Anniversary Ba ... One year ago today looked a whole lot different. I can’t imagine this last year without you to Clorox groceries and avoid the world with.” He continued: “When I asked you to be my wife, we had no idea our first year would look like this ... They always say, ‘The first year is the hardest,’ but in our case it was for completely different reasons and I’m so in awe of your badassery. How you’re able to be the mom, individual, wife, spirit, and tie dye influencer you are, while making it look so easy is mind boggling and I don’t know what I did right to deserve being on the receiving end of it. Thank you for being the most steady, supportive, empathetic, loving, and passionate. You make me so much better. You make our family what it is. You’re the only thing that makes me cry through the Prozac. I love you.”

The Lizzie McGuire alum looked back on her pregnancy sex life with Koma the following month, telling Dr. Berlin: “Sex really was not interesting for me at all. So toward the end, where with Banks, that felt like a really helpful-slash-fun tool [to speed labor along], this time I was like, ‘Nope, not for me.’ And it, like, annoyed me majorly when people would say, ‘You know what really gets things started?’ I'm like, ‘Nope.’ Poor Matt. But maybe not. Maybe he was like, ‘This is for the better right now.’”

"Matthew, My dedications can’t touch yours," the Younger actress began a sweet tribute to her husband on his 34th birthday in June 2021. "Mostly I just want to say thank you.... For being my best friend. Giving 1000 percent to our kids. Whenever there's a tiny hint of something going on with me you drop everything to make me feel like it's valid and important And that feels really nice(I'm a poet, I know🙄). But it's the humor for me. ..sometimes I don't even feel worthy of your sophisticated trolls, how lucky I am to be the chosen one. 😊."
Duff felt lucky to be "forever surprised/ impressed/ and learning" from Koma. "Thank you for being the coziest safest blanket for us to all rest our head. Nobody else I'd rather go through the trenches with bubba. HBD love you papa 🐻 who's 34!" she gushed. "Oh! And when you sit down and get really serious trying to do Banks’ hair.... I really like that too. Slays right through me 💔."
