HollywoodLife.com spoke to a source about Vanessa’s relationship with Austin Butler and they gave us the scoop on how things are going. Plus, one of Zac’s friends reveals his thoughts on his ex and her new man!
Vanessa Hudgens has been spending a lot of time with Austin Butler lately, including having slumber parties. So what’s going on with Vanessa and the Disney star? We spoke to a friend of Vanessa’s to find out!
“It isn’t a serious thing at all,” reveals an insider in Vanessa’s camp. “She’s having fun hooking up with him but no official relationship has flourished yet. They’d hooked up before their Saturday night out. It’s a friends with benefits situation.”
Eyewitnesses at Bob’s Big Boy restaurant in Burbank said Vanessa and Austin were there in a group. “She looked way more interested in him than he was in her, but they both looked like an item,” says a source who was there on Saturday. “Her friends acted like it was completely normal for them to be so coupled up.”
But as soon as the two went outside where the paparazzi were waiting, they “completely stopped acting like a couple and avoided interaction in front of the cameras” another eyewitness notes.
So what does Vanessa’s famous ex Zac Efron have to say about all of this? A friend of Zac’s confesses, ”He doesn’t care about her new relationships as long as she is happy.”
Spoken like a true friend! Do you guys think Vanessa and Austin will continue to keep things casual or will they get more serious as time goes on? Let us know in your comments!

Really? You work by astrology? Fail. That’s sad, really sad. I think Zanessa was better, they seemed happier. I think they still are crazy in love, Vanessa and Zac.

She seems happy but she looked happier with Zac . Zanessa can’t be replaced. She moved on way to quick to find someone to replace Zac. IMPOSSIBLE

Ok honestly speaking I know Vanessa Hudgens is my biggest fan but I don’t think Vanessa Hudgens and Austin Butler make a nice couple I think who made the best couple was Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens they were really inlove 5 years is very long I wouldn’t break up with my gf/bf after 5 years I just think they should get back together or ill date Zac Efron cause he is extremely (HOT)

Astrology wise they are compatible. The decanate that Vanessa is ruled under is the sun in which is also shared with the sign Austin was born under, Leo, the sun. I think this is a good match.
