Dennis Quaid, 65, is marrying a 26 year old, and his 'Parent Trap' costar just made the best joke - INSIDER

Dennis Quaid, 65, proposed to his 26-year-old girlfriend Laura Savoie, according to a new interview with "Extra." As the news made its way around Twitter, Quaid's former costar from "The Parent Trap" joined in the conversation with a reference to the plot of their iconic 1998 movie.

"Watch out for those twins," actress Elaine Hendrix tweeted along with the "twins" emoji.

In "The Parent Trap" (which was a remake of Disney's original 1961 movie), Hendrix played Meredith Blake — the 26-year-old fiancée of Quaid's character Nick Parker. She was eventually chased away from the relationship by Parker's twin daughters Hallie and Annie, who were memorably played by Lindsay Lohan. 

Hendrix took advantage of the coincidental age of the real-life Dennis Quaid's new fiancée in order to make her joke about the engagement news.

Within just three hours, Hendrix's tweet had nearly 36,000 likes and close to 6,000 retweets.

Since joining Twitter in 2009, Hendrix has used her account to frequently joke with fans about her role in "The Parent Trap." Her avatar is even an image of Meredith Blake.

"Extra" reports that Quaid and his new fiancée, who is a doctorate student at University of Texas, have been dating since "this summer." Quaid said the proposal was a surprise for Savoie.

"She was actually taking a selfie of us, and I put the ring in front and said, 'Will you marry me?' — and then she fell down," Quaid told "Extra."

No wedding date has been set for the couple.
