Seacrest, Hough 'getting serious'

Ryan Seacrest and Julianne Hough are reportedly taking their relationship to the next level and are getting serious.

The pair, who are longtime friends, have gotten closer over the past month after spending time together around Los Angeles, reports People.

They were photographed walking arm-in-arm around a Malibu beach last week, and were spotted again three days later at a trendy restaurant where Seacrest was "very attentive" of Hough.

"They're perfect for each other," a source said.

Hough previously dated country star Chuck Wicks.
