2018 seemed to be the year of celebrity engagements, and 2019 is following suit. First came the surprising engagement between “7 Rings” singer Ariana Grande and comedian Pete Davidson, followed by an even more surprising engagement and quickly followed marriage between Justin Bieber and model Hailey Baldwin. When fans thought they had seen everything, Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra stunned us all with their engagement. The latest celebrity engagement has Katy Perry an Orlando Bloom planning their walk down the aisle, who have been together since 2016.

While some may think celebrities go all out with their engagements, a lot of them were very private and intimate. Let’s take a look at how some of our favorite celebrities said “I do” over the last year.

Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin

As much as it may break our tween hearts, Justin Bieber has been officially off the market since July of 2018, getting married in a NYC courthouse to fiancé Hailey Baldwin shortly after he popped the question. While Bieber has been known to randomly show his affection for his wife through a public serenade, the actual question was not a big show. He simply asked her while they were in the Bahamas together on vacation. She told Coveteur that it was “probably the biggest OMG moment of the year.”

 

 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Was gonna wait a while to say anything but word travels fast, listen plain and simple Hailey I am soooo in love with everything about you! So committed to spending my life getting to know every single part of you loving you patiently and kindLY. I promise to lead our family with honor and integrity letting Jesus through his Holy Spirit guide us in everything we do and every decision we make. My heart is COMPLETELY and FULLY YOURS and I will ALWAYS put you first! You are the love of my life Hailey Baldwin and I wouldn’t want to spend it with anybody else. You make me so much better and we compliment eachother so well!! Can’t wait for the best season of life yet!. It’s funny because now with you everything seems to make sense! The thing I am most excited for is that my little brother and sister get to see another healthy stable marriage and look for the same!!! Gods timing really is literally perfect, we got engaged on the seventh day of the seventh month, the number seven is the number of spiritual perfection, it’s true GOOGLE IT! Isn’t that nuts? By the way I didn’t plan that, anyways My goodness does feel good to have our future secured! WERE GONNA BE BETTER AT 70 BABY HERE WE GO! “He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains FAVOR from the Lord!” This is the year of favor!!!!

Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom

This hot couple is the latest to get engaged. Bloom popped the question while on a Valentine’s Day date, and Perry’s mom helped break the news on Facebook. While the actual engagement was intimate, Bloom had plans to celebrate: with a party of about 30 of their closest friends in a private penthouse in Los Angeles decorated with heart-shaped balloons. They have each confirmed the engagement on their Instagram accounts.

Pete Davidson and Ariana Grande

While this whirlwind romance is long gone, this may top the list as the most casual celebrity engagement. The Saturday Night Live star opened up to Vogue about the seemingly spontaneous engagement: “We were in bed hanging, after watching a movie. I was like, ‘Will you marry me?’ It was really dope.”

Chance the Rapper and Kirsten Coley

The rapper proposed to his now-fiancé in a backyard barbeque surrounded by friends and family.

Karlie Kloss and Joshua Kushner

While nothing has been confirmed by their representatives, it has been reported that the couple got engaged in a private location in upstate New York. They followed the trend with a surprise wedding last October. 

There are many seemingly solid celebrity relationships right now, such as Taylor Swift and her boyfriend of two years, actor Joe Alwyn. Only time will tell before the next celebrity engagement or secret marriage is revealed.
