The HGTV star first met the actress in August 2019 while filming an episode of James Corden’s “Carpool Karaoke” with their respective siblings: Drew Scott and Emily Deschanel.

The pair seemingly hit it off and were spotted holding hands the following month  — just one week after Zooey revealed she was splitting from Pechenik, whom she married in 2015.

They confirmed their romance in October 2019 when they shared a kiss during a taping of “Dancing with the Stars.”

The pair has been going strong ever since, especially after growing their bond while quarantining together during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Despite the trying times, the couple shared glimpses into their romance — and at-home haircuts — on social media, with Zooey calling her beau the most “kind, caring, hilarious, generous, creative, nerdy, handsome and all around incredible human” in a tribute for their first anniversary.

“I am so grateful for every smile, kiss, hug, snuggle, laugh, scrabble game, escape room, breakfast, lunch and dinner we share together,” she wrote on Instagram at the time. “Even during the weirdest year for humanity I want a million billion more with you.”

Jonathan had equally high praise for the “500 Days of Summer” star during an interview with Entertainment Tonight in August 2021.

“We just celebrated our second anniversary … and I know I am dating up,” he told the outlet, adding that he plans “to keep raising the bar and keep up with those expectations.”
