Robert Pattinson And Suki Waterhouse Are Engaged After 5 Years Of Dating

It's official – Robert Pattinson and Suki Waterhouse are engaged! 

Speculation arose when Waterhouse was recently photographed sporting a dazzling diamond ring on her left hand, and a source has now confirmed to PEOPLE that the couple is indeed set to tie the knot.

“They are engaged. They both want to be married. It’s important for them,” shared an insider close to the couple. This news comes on the heels of the pair revealing last month that they are expecting their first child together.

The engagement follows Waterhouse’s announcement of her pregnancy during the Corona Capital Festival in Mexico last month. In a fan-captured video posted on X (formerly Twitter), she playfully teased the audience with her sparkling outfit before revealing her baby bump, prompting cheers and applause from delighted fans.

Here is the video: 

Sources close to the couple have expressed their excitement about the impending arrival. "A baby coming is an absolute joy for them," said one insider. "They are thrilled beyond words. They are ready for a child, and looking forward to becoming parents."

Another source added, "They are ready for a child, and looking forward to becoming parents. Even though they are both professionals who work a great deal, this is something they want. They know their lives will change, and they are excited.”

The couple first crossed paths in July 2018, and their relationship has evolved over the past few years. Despite their high-profile status, Pattinson and Waterhouse have maintained a relatively private stance on their personal lives, with Pattinson once stating, "If you let people in, it devalues what love is."

"If a stranger on the street asked you about your relationship, you'd think it extremely rude. If you put up a wall, it ends better," the actor added.

Pattinson previously said that seeing Waterhouse's reaction to The Batman "kind of changed the entire thing" for him as he appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live!.

Previously, Pattinson was linked to his Twilight co-star Kristen Stewart and was engaged to FKA Twigs, while Waterhouse dated Bradley Cooper and later had a relationship with Diego Luna.
