‘The Young & the Restless’ Star Lucas Adams’ Love Story
Adams and Wulfert first met in 2015 on the set of the Disney Channel series, “Liv and Maddie.” At the time, Adams portrayed Josh Willcox while Wulfert worked as a body double for actress Dove Cameron.
“She’s fantastic,” Adams told Soap Opera Digest in 2017. “She’s my best friend, so the fact that I’m able to have a relationship with her, and we’ll hang out and we’ll want to tell each other everything is just mind-blowing to me. It’s great.”
In July 2021, “The Young and the Restless” star proposed to Wulfert during a trip to Lake Tahoe. The stunning ring is a family heirloom that was passed down to Adams by his grandfather.
“My grandfather gave me a diamond of my grandmother’s,” the actor told the outlet. “She passed away when I was about 11 and I had asked him about a year-and-a-half ago if he had any rings left that he would be willing to let me use. He brought me one the next summer, so I had the ring for about a year before I asked her.”
Adams and Wulfert tied the knot in October 2022 in Waxahachie, Texas.
