Young star Gaten Matarazzo graduated from high school the other day!
In order to celebrate the day, Matarazzo, best known for his role as ‘Dustin Henderson‘ in one of the most-watched shows on Netflix, ‘Stranger Things,’ jumped into his verified Instagram account. The 18-year-old, who won Screen Actors Guild Awards for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series for his performance in the science & horror series, released a photo of himself with his girlfriend of three years, Lizzy Yu.
Alongside the photo, in which the young couple is seen in chic prom outfits, Matarazzo, the Shorty Award-winning star wrote:
“Got to go to prom with this goober. Thanks for letting me tag along broski. Love you.”
Then the young star referred to the low quality of the photo and wrote hilariously that “the camera quality in this picture is indeed immaculate.” The same photo was shared by Yu through her verified social media accounts.
As Matarazzo’s fans might know, the 18-year-old who is okay with living his relationship on social media, celebrated the 3rd anniversary with Yu a few weeks ago. At that time, the actor, starring also in ‘The Black List,‘ wrote the following message as a caption:
“3 years? That’s pretty cool, I guess. Happy anniversary sunshine.”
