March 09, 2020

Wilmer Valderrama and Amanda Pacheco - Jan. 1

New Year's is a popular time to get engaged, and the NCIS star and his girlfriend did just that!

On Jan. 1, Wilmer took to Instagram to share a gorgeous photo of him getting down on one knee to ask his supermodel partner if she would marry him. Lucky for him, she said yes!

Just after he popped the question, Amanda shared the same image on her own account, and also showed off her gorgeous ring!

Wilmer and Amanda were first rumoured to be an item last April, and they also attended Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas's wedding two months later.

Amanda is Wilmer's first major romantic relationship since he spent six years with Demi Lovato before the two broke up in 2016. He also previously dated Mandy Moore from 2000 to 2002.

Danielle Brooks - Jan. 1

Okay, technically the former Orange is the New Black said "yes" to boyfriend Dennis Gelin late on Dec. 31, but she announced it Jan. 1, so...

At any rate, the two welcomed 2020 in a very sweet way by sharing their wonderful news.

"I never thought one of the best days of my year would happen the last week of the year," Danielle said in an Instagram post in which she also showed off her impressive engagement ring. "I get to marry my best friend. We’re ENGAGED!! So excited to become your wife. D&D until the end."

"Congratulations!" her former co-star Uzo Aduba commented.

Janelle Monae left six party emojis and six flame emojis in the comments.

In November, Danielle and Dennis welcomed their first child, a baby girl. It looks like 2019 was incredible for the pair and 2020 will be even more so!

Jenna Dewan and Steve Kazee – Feb. 18

Congrats to Jenna Dewan! She just announced she and boyfriend Steve Kazee are engaged!

Taking to Instagram on Feb. 18, Jenna, 39, shared a photo of the two of them smooching when she revealed their happy news.

"A lifetime to love and grow with you... you have my heart," she wrote.

"When you wake in the morning I will kiss your face with a smile no one has ever seen," Steve said as he shared the same image on his own account. "When you wake in the morning I will kiss your eyes and say it's you I have loved all these years."

Jenna's engagement ring, a thin gold band, was designed by actress Nikki Reed, who shared the photo in her Instagram Stories and gushed over their engagement.

"An honour to be a very small part of this special moment," she wrote. "I love you both, and all I can say is your love is pure magic. I might be biased, but that ring is gorgeoussssss! Steve, making this with you was such a beautiful experience. Thank you for loving Jenna the way you do."

Steve popped the question just weeks after Jenna revealed she's expecting their first child. She's due any day now.

Last year, Jenna also filed for divorce from Channing Tatum, to whom she was married for nearly nine years. Channing is now in a new relationship himself, with singer Jessie J.
