Joe Manganiello and Caitlin O’Connor recently celebrated their first anniversary together, marking the special occasion with none other than Joe’s beloved dog Bubbles. The couple, who have been inseparable since sparking romance rumors in September 2023, took to social media to share glimpses of their year-long adventures with their furry family member.
Traveling the World
Caitlin, 35, posted a series of photos on her Instagram account on September 26, showcasing their travels around the globe over the past year. From exploring the picturesque streets of Italy to soaking in the vibrant energy of Los Angeles and New York City, Joe, Caitlin, and Bubbles have created lasting memories in each destination they visited. The images captured the trio attending concerts, sporting events, visiting museums, and simply enjoying each other’s company with Bubbles snug in a blanket and cradled by Joe.
An Anniversary to Remember
Joe, known for his roles in “True Blood” and “Magic Mike,” reshared Caitlin’s post on his own Instagram Stories, adding a plane, globe, and shooting star emoji to commemorate their year of adventures together. The couple’s anniversary celebration comes over a year after Joe finalized his divorce from actress Sofia Vergara. Despite the challenges they faced in their previous relationships, Joe and Caitlin have found solace in each other’s company and the unconditional love of their furry companion.
Looking Towards the Future
While Joe and Caitlin have been open about their affection for each other on social media, they have remained tight-lipped about their future plans. However, Joe has expressed his desire to start a family someday, a sentiment echoed by Caitlin. The “Deal or No Deal Island” host has been vocal about his aspirations for fatherhood, emphasizing the importance of family in his life.
During an interview on the “Podcrushed” podcast in July, Joe hinted at his readiness to embrace fatherhood, stating, “It’s something that’s definitely on the docket, you know, at some point.” He emphasized that the prospect of becoming a father was always a priority in his relationships, highlighting his commitment to nurturing a loving and supportive family unit. Joe’s “big dad energy” and his eagerness to share his life experiences with future generations underscore his dedication to building a meaningful legacy.
As Joe and Caitlin continue to navigate their relationship and explore the possibilities that lie ahead, they remain steadfast in their commitment to each other and to creating a bright future together. Their anniversary celebration with Bubbles serves as a poignant reminder of the love and joy they have found in each other’s company, paving the way for a promising journey ahead.
