Howard Deutch and Lea Thompson’s daughter, Zoey Deutch, is officially off the market. The Something From Tiffany’s actress is engaged to her longtime boyfriend, actor and comedian Jimmy Tatro. The couple managed to keep the happy news a secret for quite some time, surprising fans who only just found out about their engagement.
Zoey shared the big reveal on Instagram on September 28, 2025 (ET), posting a series of dreamy pictures from the proposal and writing that she had actually been engaged for three months. That means Jimmy popped the question sometime around June 2025. Her caption was short and sweet: “Three months engaged to the love of my life.”
The photos looked straight out of a romantic movie. Jimmy had planned a cozy beach proposal complete with a picnic blanket, soft pillows, lanterns, and white flowers. He got down on one knee in the sand and presented Zoey with a beautiful cushion-cut diamond ring set on a simple gold band. It was intimate, heartfelt, and everything fans would expect from the couple’s easygoing yet affectionate vibe.
The internet quickly lit up with reactions once the post went live. Friends and fellow celebrities flooded the comments with love. Riverdale’s Lili Reinhart wrote, “Congratulations, beautiful angel!!” while Vanessa Hudgens added, “Sooo happy for yooooou.” Others, including Camila Morrone, Busy Philipps, Julianne Hough, and Maude Apatow, joined in to share their excitement and warm wishes for the newly engaged couple.
Zoey and Jimmy went public with their relationship on Valentine’s Day 2021, and since then, they’ve become one of Hollywood’s most adored pairs. Despite their strong bond, Zoey has openly said they’re total opposites. In a 2022 interview with Betches U Up?, she laughed about how different they are but said that’s exactly what she loves about him. “I would be so bored if I were dating someone who agreed with me on everything,” she explained. “I’m currently with someone who is my actual polar opposite.”
Jimmy has been just as vocal about his love for Zoey. Back in 2022, he shared a sweet birthday post calling her his “favourite person.” As the two prepare for the next chapter of their lives, they have strong examples to look up to — Zoey’s parents, Howard Deutch and Lea Thompson, have been happily married for over 35 years.
