Seemingly oblivious to the rest of the world, Modern Family star Sarah Hyland and her boyfriend Dominic Sherwood share a passionate embrace. As they watched a Lakers game in LA on Sunday, the hunky actor wrapped an arm around his girl and pulled her in for a tender kiss.

This weekend the lovebirds also decided to get similar tattoos. Sarah had an arrow etched on her back, while Dominic had a similar design on his inner arm. He tweeted an image of his with the caption: "Evidence of last night's escapades".

The new couple were actually watching the game with their friend Michelle Trachtenberg of Gossip Girl fame. However, no one could begrudge the duo their loved up moment.

Michelle will be thrilled that her friend seems to be enjoying a new romance after the tough time she's faced. Sarah and Dominic, both 24, met on the set of Vampire Academy in 2013, but only started dating earlier this year.

Their relationship comes after the actress ended a relationship with former boyfriend Matt Prokop, claiming that he was abusive. Last October she was granted a restraining order against him, which bans Matt from going within 100 yards of the comedic star, her dog, her home and workplace.

Sarah spoke about how she coped in a TV interview, saying there are two quotes that helped her in moments of difficulty.

"One is a Dylan Thomas poem – 'Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light', which is one of my favourite poems. It just strikes a chord with me," she said. The star then cited Robert Frost's quote, "The only way out is through". "People have to go through things in order to become the person they are today, and that's that," she added.
