In the series “Cobra Kai,” Mary Mouser plays Samantha LaRusso, the daughter of Daniel LaRusso, the original Karate Kid star in “Karate Kid.” Tanner Buchanan plays Robby Kene, the son of Johnny Lawrence, the rival of Daniel LaRusso in the show.
Cobra Kai is a continuation of the “Karate Kid” franchise, which takes place 34 years after one of the Karate Kid movies in 1984. The show focuses on a rivalry between the All Valley Karate Tournament winner, Daniel LaRusso, and Johnny Lawrence, who lost against Daniel. Johnny Lawrence seeks redemption for losing the tournament by reopening the Cobra Kai dojo, which causes all kinds of problems with the kids and reignites the rivalry between LaRusso and Lawrence. The show has released five more seasons since the first one and all of the fans love the show.

In the middle of the Cobra Kai series, Mouser and Buchanan’s characters were a couple that ended one season later. Their relationship on the show ended quickly, however, the two characters remained friends. The couple announced their engagement on the same day that Cobra Kai released their new and final episodes of the show. They both shared an Instagram post, saying, “This is such a special moment in our lives, the closing of one chapter and celebrating the continuation of another. We’re so grateful for the love and support, and though we’re partial to having our private moments, we’re excited to share this check-in to our world.” The two started dating in 2017, but they were keeping it a secret to keep their privacy safe. Many people are expressing their happiness and congratulations on social media to the engaged couple.
