Lourd, 27, has been dating Rydell, 28, since 2016. They had one break-up, but reunited soon after.
The Star Wars: The Last Jedi actress tagged the actor in a tribute when she marked one year since the passing of her mom, Carrie Fisher, and grandmother, Debbie Reynolds in December 2016.
When Lourd visited the Northern Lights in honor of her mom, she took Austin along for the journey, also tagging him in the touching post.

Lourd was previously linked to Twilight star Taylor Lautner, who began dating at the start of 2017, just shortly after her mom and grandma’s unexpected deaths.
The couple parted ways with each other last summer, however.
Her mom Fisher died of a heart attack on December 27, 2016, a few days later her grandmother Reynolds suffered a stroke.
