Broadway legend Lea Salonga couldn't hide her delight and excitement over a photo posted by world-renowned singer-songwriter Ricky Martin alongside Hudson Williams, the star of the hit queer-romance series Heated Rivalry.

Ricky shared a series of photos with the actor after they met at a pre-show dinner hosted by Giorgio Armani in Milan.

In his post, the famous singer mentioned how much he enjoyed the delicious food and conversation with his "excellent seat neighbor," Hudson, who is currently garnering massive public attention following his standout performance in the series.

“Pre-show dinner in Milan. Good food, better conversations, excellent seat neighbor: @hudsonwilliamsofficial,” Ricky wrote in the caption.

While the photo of the two global heartthrobs was enough to trend on its own, it was Lea's enthusiastic response that stole the spotlight.

The Disney legend and Tony Award winner took to the comments section to voice her inner fangirl, writing in all caps: “RICKY!!! I LOVE HUDSON SO MUCH!!!”

Lea's excitement was on full display after seeing Ricky's photo. Many fans took notice, pointing out that the Broadway legend is clearly among those currently captivated by the actor.

Hudson Williams rose to fame for his portrayal of hockey player Shane Hollander, starring alongside Connor Storrie, who plays Ilya Rozanov, in the series Heated Rivalry, the live-action adaptation of the novel of the same title.

The series became a massive hit, drawing significant attention and a growing fan base for both Hudson and Connor. Recently, following the success of Heated Rivalry, the duo attended the Golden Globes to present the award for Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role on Television.

Hudson also attended Milan Fashion Week, where he was spotted seated next to another one of today's biggest stars, Tom Blyth, the lead of the Netflix film People We Meet on Vacation.
