Actor Josh Hutcherson, 33, has been in a long-term relationship with Spanish actress Claudia Traisac, 32, since 2013. The couple first met while filming Escobar: Paradise Lost and have kept their romance mostly out of the public eye.
Now, as Hutcherson returns to television with the series I Love LA, he opens up about the key to keeping his relationship strong and fulfilling after twelve years together.
"In my life and relationship, because we're both actors, it's very hot and cold as far as how much time we get together," Hutcherson told PEOPLE. "It's a hard thing to find balance in."
Despite their busy and often unpredictable schedules, Hutcherson believes that this very unpredictability helps maintain their connection and keeps things fresh.
"Both of our schedules are always different, but that's part of the reason why it works," he said. "That unpredictability makes things exciting, too, in so many ways."
Josh Hutcherson reveals that the unpredictability and balance in his relationship with Claudia Traisac help keep their twelve-year romance alive and full of energy.
