    He reportedly met Valladares in June 2020 while she was working at the Byron Bay General Store in New South Wales in Australia.

    According to the Daily Mail , Valladares quit her job to spend more time with Efron.

    While they were dating, Valladares threw Efron a surprise birthday bash in her home country, according to Page Six.
