Zac Efron made his relationship with his current girlfriend, Australian model Vanessa Valladares, 'official' on Friday, September 4, when the two of them were seen holding hands for the first time following months of speculations. However, after Daily Mail posted photos of the couple together, 'High School Musical' fans misread the name as Efron's former flame, Vanessa Hudgens, causing a frenzy on Twitter.

You can see the photos of the cute couple together here.

Valladares and Hudgens share the same first name, true. But that is where their similarities end. However, most of the fans who grew up watching the legendary Disney teenage trilogy never stopped shipping Efron and Hudgens ever since reports came out that they were dating back in 2005. Many could not fully accept the fact that their favorite couple was no longer together after they announced their split in December 2010, stressing on the fact that they were "100 percent still good friends."

As a result, it was only natural that some of their minds read "Valladares" as "Hudgens" when news of Efron's new girlfriend made rounds on social media. Here are some of the hilarious reactions:

"The way my brain read Vanessa Hudgens and ran with it."



 

"The way Vanessa Hudgens is gonna wake up and find her self trending by accident because her ex is dating someone with a similar name lmao."



 

"Thought it said vanessa hudgens and the 12 year old in me started screaming."



 

"Thought my wife Vanessa Hudgens had been stolen from me for a sec. We all good."



 

"I'm gonna say this once dont ever use another name under zanessa. Zanessa was only ment for ZAC EFRON AND VANESSA HUDGENS!"



 

"My heart jumped, i was going to be hyped because i thought it said vanessa hudgens but then i read it again- i’ve been bamboozled."



 

"Vanessa Hudgens when she sees that y’all made her trend because Zac is dating someone with the same name."



 

"Me reading it as Vanessa Hudgens and being confused who's the lady in the picture."



 

"I really thought it said Vanessa Hudgens."



 

"I thought this said Vanessa Hudgens. I’m gonna go jump off the nearest cliff now."



 

"My two brain cells really made me read vanessa hudgens for a solid second i-"



 

Efron and Valladares were seen grabbing a healthy-looking takeaway meal and matching cans of coconut water from The Farm, a trendy restaurant hub in Byron Bay, Australia. The actor was seen wearing a t-shirt by local Byron Bay label Afends along with tan-colored shorts, black crew socks and white sneakers. To shield himself from the sun, he wore black sunglasses and a black baseball cap by Australian fashion brand Rip Curl.  

The aspiring model, on the other hand, chose to show off her lean legs in an orange-and-pink mini skirt, underneath a blue button-up shirt. Brown sandals, a gold necklace and a pair of aviator sunglasses completed her look. Efron reportedly met Valladares in July when she was working as a waitress in Byron Bay.
She's rumored to have quit her job and is currently staying with the actor at Belongil Beach.
