Lucy Hale and Skeet Ulrich truly are in a relationship, E! confirmed one day after photos surfaced of the two kissing at lunch in Los Angeles. But it is anything but serious at this point.
A source close to the 31-year-old actress told the outlet that Hale and Ulrich, 51, being romantically involved is extremely recent. “Lucy and Skeet were set up through mutual friends,” the source said. “They know a lot of the same people in the acting circle and connected recently. It’s very new. They are both really into each other and have been dating for about a month.”
While the source stressed the relationship is “pretty casual” at this stage, Hale and Ulrich have been together a lot. “They spend a lot of time at each other’s homes just hanging out and being low key,” the source said. “Lucy thinks Skeet is very charming and sweet. She likes that he is a dedicated dad.” Ulrich has a son and daughter, 19-year-old twins Naiia and Jakob, with ex-wife Georgina Cates.

Hale spoke to Entertainment Tonight in July 2020 about her experience dating during the pandemic. “I feel more single than ever, but it’s fine,” she started. “If anything during this time it’s taught [me]—because I’ve done the whole thing [quarantining] basically alone, and I used to hate being alone—I feel the only way I’m gonna date someone next is if they make my life better because I’m so happy right now having my own routine.”
“I’m on a dating site now and I still never met up with any of them because I’m too nervous,” she added. “Believe it or not, I’m really shy in that sense.”
She added that she most values a man with a similar sense of humor to hers. “I physically do not have a type. I’ve dated everything cross the board,” she said. She just wanted to find “someone who’s confident and comfortable in their skin.”
“There’s so many insecure men out there and I can’t do that,” she continued. “I’ve dated that. Don’t want that. Work ethic, drive, passion [are qualities I’m looking for]. I don’t care what you do, just love it. Do everything a hundred and ten percent. A good moral compass. Just a good person. It’s very simple what I’m looking for, but that’s hard. Simple qualities are harder to find.”
