The summer of love has come and gone, and 2019 is reaping the rewards. While Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson may not have stood the test of time, Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra and Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin have both officially tied the knot, and now Chris Pratt, 39, and Katherine Schwarzenegger, 28 have announced their own engagement.
"Sweet Katherine, so happy you said yes!" Pratt posted on Instagram. "I’m thrilled to be marrying you. Proud to live boldly in faith with you. Here we go!"
While the couple have only recently been public about their relationship, they've had a low-key romance for some time. They've gone on long drives in Pratt's giant truck, picnicked, and had church dates. Schwarzenegger, a lifestyle blogger and author, was reportedly set up with Pratt the old fashioned way: by her mother, Maria Shriver.

The Guardians of The Galaxy star and President John F. Kennedy's great-niece have yet to confirm the relationship, but if stolen kisses under palm trees are any indication, love is definitely in the air.
Ahead, the full timeline, as far as we know, of this private celebrity couple.

Pratt and Anna Faris, his wife of eight years, released an identical joint statement announcing their separation and impending divorce. "We are sad to announce we are legally separating," they wrote in photo of a text shared on their respective social media accounts. "We tried hard for a long time and we're really disappointed. Our son has two parents who love him very much and for his sake we want to keep this situation as private as possible moving forward. We still love each other and will always cherish our time together."

"So thankful for time shared with my family & friends! On Saturday, we had a great (much needed) day-cation get away, wine tasting @roundpondestate with @candy_lvr @katherineschwarzenegger@prattprattpratt @highbrassleather & @Solano County Sheriff Tom Ferrarra & Napa County Sheriff John Robertson," Cully Pratt wrote in an Instagram caption for a series of photos from the weekend. The group also attended a charity auction hosted by Pratt.
Knowing they had a scoop (of sorts) on their hands, the winery jumped in lovefest, sharing photos of the couple on Instagram. Oh, and everyone else who attended, too. BUT, the couple!
The most important takeaway from these snaps is that Schwarzenegger and Pratt may not be Instagram official or red carpet official, or they've taken the next steps in meeting the family, so it must be serious.
