The pair were spotted together at Los Angeles International airport hand-in-hand when Lamas reflected on their timely love story.

“The universe happened!” Lamas said when asked about his and Locklear’s reunion.

When asked which of them made the first move, Lamas answered: “I guess the promoter that booked us on the same event.”

Lamas confirmed that he and the Melrose Place actress got together in Buffalo, New York during the Thanksgiving holiday in 2025.

Lamas, who played Olivia Newton-John’s jock boyfriend Tom in the hit movie musical Grease in 1978, was married to ex and former model Kenna Nicole Lamas, née Scott, before his relationship with Locklear.

They had been together for five years total before the Renegade actor filed for divorce in July 2025.

Lamas and Locklear, 64, were first romantically linked when the couple were spotted in Las Vegas celebrating New Year’s Eve together.
