Congratulations are pouring in after Canadian actor Simu Liu announced his engagement to partner Allison Hsu.
Liu, who starred in Marvel's superhero film Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, shared the news on social media with a movie reference.
"Nine rings left," reads the caption of a photo he posted on his Instagram story on May 11. The post shows the couple in matching white outfits in front of a view of Paris as Hsu holds up a stunning oval-cut diamond engagement ring.
Hsu shared a series of photos on Instagram that show the couple on a balcony overlooking the Eiffel Tower.
"Us forever," she wrote.
Florence Pugh, who stars in the newly released Marvel film Thunderbolts, wrote, "AHHHHHHH HOW AMAZING! Sending love to you both."
"Congratulations!" wrote John Legend. Priyanka Chopra commented with several emojis, applauding the couple.
Along with a photo of the newly engaged couple kissing, Liu shared a longer, heartfelt caption.
"From weekends in Paris, day trips to Palm Springs, long nights on set, afternoons vegging on the couch and everything in between, I choose you forever and always," he stated.
"I love you fiancé!" Hsu replied in the comments.
Hsu is the senior digital marketing manager at Interscope Records in Los Angeles. In 2022, she was named one of Forbes' 30 Under 30 people in the music category. She leads "all things digital and social" for artists like Billie Eilish and Lady Gaga.
USA Today reported that the pair started dating that same year and have been seen together at numerous red carpet events.
"Happy birthday to my favourite person in the world!" wrote Liu in a post on Aug. 8, 2024. "Our lives are just like this Benson Boone song… it's loud as hell and there's so much going on but dammit when we hit those high notes, it's just magic. Thank you for all the beautiful things that we’ve done."
Liu, who grew up in Mississauga, Ontario, got his first big break in the Canadian sitcom Kim's Convenience, which aired on CBC. In 2019, he was cast as the first Asian superhero in the Marvel franchise.
"I have just fulfilled a dream so inconceivably far-fetched that I may as well have wished for a pet unicorn or a treehouse made of lollipops," he wrote in his memoir, We Were Dreamers.
