The pair commemorated their first anniversary on Wednesday, May 27, each posting affectionate messages to their Instagram followers, offering fans insight into how they've navigated their long-distance connection over the past twelve months.

The 23-year-old Siwa posted a collection of photographs and video clips capturing cherished moments from her year with the 33-year-old Hughes. In her caption, she reflected on the emotional significance of their relationship: "The greatest gift I've ever received in life was 365 days ago. What a beautiful year it's been with you by my side. I wake up with more love every day, more gratitude every day, and a bigger smile on my face every day."

She went on to acknowledge the unique demands of maintaining a connection across distance. "From every phone call, to every plane ride, to every memory made together in the last year, I'm grateful for every single one and when I look back, I just smile to myself peacefully feeling so complete. Happy one year to the one I love, my bestest friend."

Hughes chimed in with a playful response beneath her post, writing, "hey that's me," accompanied by a heart emoji.

Hughes also took to his own Instagram page to share a black-and-white photograph of the couple during a vacation getaway. He kept his message brief, overlaying the image with the words, "Happy one year :)"

The anniversary celebration comes roughly a month after Siwa opened up about experiencing wedding fever.
