From That ‘70s Show and From Dusk Till Dawn: The Series to the hit primetime procedural NCIS, Wilmer Valderrama has become quite the household name. Though catalyzing his career via comedy, the actor has since taken on more dramatic roles and brings both combat prowess and an in-charge mentality to Agent Nick Torres in NCIS. Yet, what about his fiancée? 

Is Wilmer Valderrama engaged to another celebrity and, if so, what exactly is she famous for? Wilmer Valderrama has been quarantining with his soon-to-be-wife Amanda Pacheco.

Who Is Amanda Pacheco? 

Both Valderrama and Pacheco have grown accustomed to standing in front of a camera; yet, while Valderrama acts for videos, Pacheco models for stills. Pacheco is a model from San Diego, and she is currently represented by Scout Talent. 

Pacheco often shares her modeling shots with her social media followers; many photos take place near or in the ocean, yet she also has experience with more editorial-esque photoshoots. Pacheco has 51.3k followers on Instagram, yet her following did surge a bit when Valderrama fans found out that she was dating the That ‘70s Show favorite. While she may not be a household name with multiple television credits to her portfolio, she is succeeding in a tough biz.

While Pacheco shares her modeling shots on Instagram, there are also several photos featuring Valderrama. He is often holding her, or they are sometimes smiling for an adorable selfie. Yet, no matter the shot, the love between the two is always evident. So, how did the model meet the actor, and how long have they been engaged? 

Inside Wilmer Valderrama and Amanda Pacheco’s love story 

As People notes, Valderrama and Pacheco first met in March of 2019, and the couple recently shared photos from their early days; Pacheco even thanked paparazzi for capturing their first date as part of her social media celebration of their one-year anniversary. The two were first linked in April after they were spotted shopping together in LA. They also were seen together in France, celebrating Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner’s wedding; and, when you bring a date to a wedding, the relationship is usually quite serious!

Given the state of the world at the moment, and the fact that quarantining has become the standard, the wedding bells may not ring for quite some time. Yet, here’s to wishing the happy couple a successful and happy marriage. 

Pacheco is not Valderrama’s first serious relationship, as he has been linked to both Demi Lovato and Mandi Moore, as People explains, yet maybe this is his third (most serious) relationship. And, if such is the case, three is the magic number, right?
