Hilary Duff and Matthew Koma actually do wanna be just like Good Charlotte.

The Lizzie McGuire alum and her husband of five years pulled off the most epic Halloween costumes, dressing as brothers Benji Madden and Joel Madden. But it wasn't just the costumes that turned heads but where they wore them, as the duo showed off the looks while out to dinner with Joel—whom Hilary dated from 2004 to 2006—and his wife Nicole Richie.

Matthew shared his and Hilary's looks to his Instagram Story Oct. 30, tagging the Good Charlotte members as well as Nicole. In the snap, Matthew and Hilary—who are parents to Banks, 5, Mae, 3, and Townes, 5 months, along with Luca, 11, from Hilary's previous marriage to Mike Comrie—donned matching sunglasses, while Matt channeled Joel with his MDDN hat, leather jacket and chain necklace. Hilary took on the role of Benji, also wearing a black cap, chain necklaces and leather vest.

And of course, Joel and Nicole—who have been married since 2010 and share kids Harlow, 16, and Sparrow, 15—were delighted by the costume tribute.

The Simple Life star shared a picture of Hilary and Matthew to her Instagram story, which Joel reposted, writing, "Protect @matthewkoma and @hilaryduff at all costs," along with two crown emojis.

For Joel's birthday in 2023, Matthew shared several photos celebrating the "Girls & Boys" singer—including a throwback of Joel and Hilary from when they dated in 2006—writing, "It's not even that weird that you dated my wife @joelmadden. It just makes me feel closer to you."

The quartet even enjoyed a date night together in 2022, further cementing the friendship. And according to Hilary, she has a fantastic relationship with Joel, Nicole and their whole family.

"We're neighbors. And we actually hang out all the time," she shared on Watch What Happens Live in 2023. "I was just in her driveway honking her to come drink wine with us the other day."

"Right when they moved in, for some reason, Matt photoshopped a picture of Joel and Benji in a photo with me on Valentine's Day," she laughed. "'Happy Valentine's Day, honey.'"

Hilary added, "Now they just know that Matt is a big troll and likes to have lots of fun."
