Does Julianne Hough have a boyfriend? Star sparks rumors with tribute to her 'love'

Julianne Hough has been keeping her love life private following her divorce from Brooks Laich, which was finalised last year, and opening up about being "not straight".

But a recent post certainly had fans questioning whether she had found love again, as she reshared a loved-up snap alongside Animal Kingdom star Tyler Lain. Tyler shared a series of images from a recent trip to Indonesia alongside a large group of friends, that included Julianne. In one of the final posts, he shared the image of the pair embracing one another.

The setting sun created the perfect backdrop for the pair, and Julianne looked proud as punch as she cuddled up to the actor. Resharing the image, she even captioned it: "My love."

Although Julianne didn't comment on the main post, she did feature on Tyler's Instagram page on another occasion.

Back in June, he shared some photos of himself and Julianne together at the Tony Awards, including one of Julianne sweetly kissing him on the cheek. Commenting on the post, the dancer said: "The absolute best night with you!!!!" alongside a string of heart emojis.
