Kate Bosworth and Justin Long Spark Engagement Rumors at the Oscars

Kate Bosworth and Justin Long may be walking down the aisle!

If you haven't been following Bosworth and Long's romance, you've been missing out on a true fairy tale. The actors met in 2021 while filming an undisclosed project together, and began dating that fall after Bosworth split from her husband of eight years, Michael Polish.

Since then, the Blue Crush star and the He’s Just Not That into You actor have embarked on a passionate relationship; not only do they look entirely lovestruck every time they are spotted out in public together, but they are also constantly praising one another on social media.

Now, two years into their romance, it seems they may be engaged.

On Instagram, Bosworth shared a series of close-up photos of her and Long at the 2023 Oscars Vanity Fair after-party, held Sunday night. In them, she and Long are seen embracing one another and gazing into each other's eyes while walking the carpet. But the real detail is on the actress's left hand, which is sparkling with a diamond ring.

While many stars accessorized with diamonds for the night, the ring is placed on Bosworth's ring finger, which may mean it's a lot more than a simple accessory.

Also, Bosworth shared a loving tribute to her partner alongside the photos from the bash, further fueling fans' theories that there may have been a proposal.

"Thank you for having us @vanityfair 💞 truth be told, we were a little nervous because walking a red carpet can be kinda strange (no matter how many times you do it)… and this is such a big one! Do you know what makes everything better? Being with your best friend. You light up my world @justinlong 💗 I'm so lucky it's you," she wrote to Long.

In the comments section, the actor responded just as sweetly.

"HA HAAA!!! I'm sure you can imagine how much this made me smile. I'd have to dislocate my jaw like an anaconda to smile as big as I feel like smiling when I'm with you," he wrote. "You make everything better and fun- even things that I've historically not been THAT into like fancy Hollywood parties and public displays of affection. Thanks for being the best date. I hope they invite us back! 😬🤞🤪📸😘."
