The pair’s romance began while the two were in college. “I had a flip phone at the time, so I don’t know exactly how it happened, but it really did!” said Franco, referencing the “butt dial” he made to Scartabello.
“My name starts with a T,” interrupted Scartabello, laughing. “It’s pretty hard to butt dial a T!”
