From the moment we met each other, we were instantly obsessed. It’s genuine excitement and we have so much fun together!

5. He Supports the Love Is Louder Project
Growing up, Bennett suffered from bullying. He now supports the project Love Is Louder and stated:
Of all people, I know how mean people can be to each other. I mean, we made a whole movie about it [referencing Mean Girls]. It happened to me in high school, it happened to me in college [and] it still happens to me today. And I’m not gonna lie, it sucks. Sometimes it really sucks. But it doesn’t have to forever because there are people out there who love you, and love is a lot louder than hate.
