On his Instagram Story, Koma shared their Halloween looks, tagging the Maddens and Nicole Richie. Koma sported Joel’s signature leather-jacket-and-chain look, complete with an MDDN cap, while Duff embraced Benji’s style with dark attire and layered chains.
Joel and Nicole, married since 2010, enjoyed the costume tribute, with Nicole sharing the photo on her Instagram and Joel humorously declaring, "Protect @matthewkoma and @hilaryduff at all costs."
Although Duff and Joel dated from 2004 to 2006, they and their spouses have kept a close bond over the years. On 'Watch What Happens Live' last year, Duff joked about the families’ close-knit relationship, saying, “We’re neighbors, I was just in her driveway honking for her to come drink wine with us the other day.”
To celebrate Joel’s birthday in 2023, Matthew posted a series of photos honoring the 'Girls & Boys' singer. He even included a throwback shot of Joel and Hilary from their 2006 dating days, jokingly adding, "It's not even that weird that you dated my wife @joelmadden. It just makes me feel closer to you."
