Molly and Prince began dating while he was a student at Loyola Marymount University in 2017. In March 2018, the couple celebrated their first anniversary by taking a trip together to San Francisco.
“I had such an amazing time in San Fran celebrating our year together❤️,” he captioned a selfie of them smiling near a body of water.
When Molly and Prince graduated from college in May 2019, they both supported each other and posed for pictures in their caps and gowns.
In 2021, Prince posted photos to honor their fourth anniversary and included shots of them traveling across the world.
“Wow can’t believe it’s been 4 years con mi amor❤️ I’ve grown and learned so much with you and so lucky to be able to go on all our adventures together. It’s so cool to see all the places we’ve been together and all the crazy stuff we do usually revolving around food🤣🤣🤣 I love you baby happy 4 years❤️❤️❤️,” he captioned the pictures in March 2021.

After dating for one year, Prince opened up to PEOPLE about his relationship and how the two complement each other.
“I think in everything there’s an important balance,” he said at Dee Dee Jackson Foundation’s Annual Costume for a Cause in October 2018. “I think that I’m a certain way, and she’s very — I don’t want to say opposite — but complementary in a way that we balance each other out. I’m more aggressive, she’s a little softer.”
Prince added that Molly, whom he didn’t name at the time, “encourages” him to “see things through a different light” and vice versa. “It helps us stay well-rounded,” he shared.
“She likes the beach. I like the movies!” Prince said of their date nights.
