Julianne Hough's romance with new beau Brooks Laich looks hot enough to melt the polar vortex! Just one day after Us Weekly confirmed that the two are dating, the Dancing With the Stars alum and the Washington Capitals hockey player were spotted sharing a romantic kiss at LAX airport.
Hough, 25, threw her arms around Laich's neck as he pulled her in for a sweet smooch. The two have been spotted together all over L.A. in recent days, first at Disneyland, and then in Studio City, where they walked her dogs on Feb. 16.
"It works out well," one source told Us of the budding romance, noting that they were set up by a mutual friend and share a love of sports. "They're having fun." Added another insider: "She's happier than ever."
Hough recently opened up about her love life in an interview for the March issue of Self magazine. "I'm a relationship girl, and I feel so grateful for the ones I've been in," she said. "They've been excellent — I've been hurt but never angry — and they've helped me grow to be who I am today."
"I honestly don't care if I meet somebody or not," she added. "I'm just loving life on my own with own two feet on the ground."
