I Love LA Star Josh Hutcherson's Relationship with Claudia Traisac

Keeping Their Relationship Private
The couple prefers to avoid public displays of affection and keeps their relationship mostly private. Their long-distance situation requires effort, but they make time to meet whenever possible despite hectic schedules.
Challenges of a Long-Distance Relationship
“There’s a lot of traveling, a lot of Skype. I feel like I’m with you because I’m seeing you and we’re talking, but also you’re a fucking screen. It’s very frustrating.”
Hutcherson admitted the difficulties and frustrations of maintaining a relationship through virtual means but emphasized they find ways to make it work.
Personal Life and Pets
The actor is a proud owner of two rescue dogs, Driver and Manchi. He renamed one of his rescue dogs from Smudge to Manchi at Claudia’s request because she found "Smudge" difficult to pronounce in Spanish. He explained:
“My girlfriend is from Madrid, and she couldn't really say Smudge — it's a hard word to pronounce in Spanish. We looked up that Mancha is the Spanish for a smudge, and so Manchi became the cute Spanish version.”
Josh Hutcherson balances his career, love life, and passion for animal rescue while nurturing his relationship across continents.
Summary: Josh Hutcherson and Claudia Traisac maintain a loving long-distance relationship for over ten years, navigating language, travel, and virtual challenges while keeping their bond strong and private.
