This shouldn't be too much of a surprise, though: The 32-year-old has a long history of success with some of Hollywood's hottest stars. Check it out.
Wilmer Valderrama's Dating History:
Love Story

Back when Valderrama was just starting out on TV's That '70s Show, he landed actress Jennifer Love Hewitt. At this point, she was at the tail end of her Party of Five stint and had starred in cult hits I Know What You Did Last Summer and Can't Hardly Wait. And, she'd just ended things with beau of two years Carson Daly. She and Valderrama had a brief fling, then both went on their merry ways. Years later Valderrama graciously rated her as an "8" on Howard Stern's show.
Show Stopp! ers
We do know Valderrama taught his That '70s Show co-star Mila Kunis how to drive. It's only rumored that they dated in 1999. Neither star has ever confessed to dating, but they were awfully close while filming the hit show. For the record, Kunis was just 16 at the time the dating rumors went around. He was 19.
Kiss and Tell
Valderrama was Mandy Moore's first boyfriend. They dated on and off from 2001 to 2002 and kept their relationship relatively private. But, all bets were off a few years after they broke up. In 2006, the actor infamously spilled intimate details about his ex to Stern, telling the shock jock: "The sex with Mandy was good, but it wasn't like warm apple pie."
Not unsurprisingly, Moore was horrified and released this statement: "That is utterly tacky, not even true. It hurts my feelings because I like him."
First Love
A 17-year-old Lindsay Lohan fell hard for Mr. Valderrama in 2004. They met at an LA-area nightclub i! n May th en started dating. Dina Lohan, who's no fan of keeping out of her daughter's business, blabbed that the actor was LiLo's "first love." Valderrama was at the starlet's side when she was hospitalized for exhaustion that year but they split in November, a week after she was a guest star on That '70s Show.
"Boyfriend" Material

The next year, Valderrama was rumored to be dating singer Ashlee Simpson. They were photographed together but never admitted to being an item -- at the time. "Wilmer and I are good friends. I dont know. We just hang out," she said in August 2005. However, in true Valderrama fashion, he told Stern that she was a "screamer" the following year. Don't worry, Simpson sorta got him back by writing the song "Boyfriend" after the split. She said about the hit: "There was some Hollywood drama a couple years ago and I just to hell with it and wrote about what was going on."
Punk at a Point
After about a 4-year break from Hollywood relationships, Valderrama was back in the spotlight with a new songstress: Avril Lavigne. This unlikely couple got together in October ! 2009, ri ght after she divorced Deryck Whibley, and only lasted through New Year's. They'd reportedly been friends for years, but didn't work so well as a couple.
If At First You Don't Succeed

Shortly after teen star Demi Lovato and Joe Jonas called it quits in mid-2010, she was linked to 30-year-old Valderrama. The budding songstress was reportedly crushed by the breakup, and her rep claimed the new dating rumors were false -- the actor was just "being supportive of his friend during this difficult time." Still, the relationship buzz persisted. They never confirmed the romance, but reports of a breakup surfaced in June 2011. Sources claimed the 12-year age difference was to blame.
Months later Lovato and Valderrama were seen smooching but the rekindled romance didn't last long. Days after the kissy pics surfaced sources said the two were done for good.
Mingling with Minka

So who's the new gorgeous gal in Valderrama's life? Well, it seems as though he's courting actress Minka Kelly, who apparently just ended things once and for all with baseball star Derek Jeter. Those go! od ol' u nnamed sources tell Us magazine the actors have been spending lots of quality time together in L.A. In fact, more insiders with little credibility say Mr. Valderrama has been ignoring other women in the interest of pursuing the Roommate actress. You don't say!
When quizzed about his love life on Ryan Seacrest's talks show today, Valderrama used his Handy Manny voice (from his Disney Jr. show of the same name) and told listeners coyly: "Well Minka Kelly and Wilmer Valderrama have been friends for a long time and that's all there is to it."
But is that really all there is to it? We imagine more information will come out sooner or later, and, if not, he'll spill the beans to Howard Stern eventually.
