Kate Upton Is Engaged to Justin Verlander, Shows Off Huge Ring at 2016 Met Gala

by REBECCA MACATEE & JIMMY CHAIRMAN | Tue, May 3, 2016 3:15 AM

It's official: Kate Upton is off the market!

 

The model-actress is engaged to longtime boyfriend Justin Verlander, E! News can exclusively confirm. The 23-year-old bride-to-be debuted her stunning engagement ring, designed by her fiancé, on the red carpet at the 2016 Met Gala.

 

"I'm really excited, he asked me right before season started so we've been keeping it on the down low for quite a while," she told E! News exclusively. "So I'm excited to finally be able to share it with the world!"

 

Kate and Justin aren't in any huge rush to say "I do." For now, "we are enjoying the engagement period," she said.

 

Kate and Justin, 33, dated for over three years prior to their engagement. As Kate joked to E! News back in March, three years as a couple "seems like forever in Hollywood, right?"

 

So what's their secret? "For us, we always try and work on our communication," she said. "We're very open with one another and we're each others best friends. He's definitely my best friend, so I think that helps a lot."

 

Justin, a starting pitcher for the Detroit Tigers, told Forbes magazine he and Kate have a "normal relationship."

 

"Kate's there a lot for me," he said. "And we're just normal people. You know, a normal relationship—believe it or not."

 

The down-to-earth duo also have a lot in common, including their love of animals. "Justin is definitely an animal lover but he is definitely holding me back from my 10 dogs," Kate told E! News. "He is putting a three-dog limit on it."

 

Compromise is key! In any case, congratulations to the future Mr. and Mrs. Verlander!

Honesly I used to think Jusitn was a d-bag and didn't like it at all, but I've grown to love them as a couple, they clearly love each other and are super cute. Congratulations to them, I'm sure Kate will be a beautiful bride.

 

And she looks stunning at the MET, glad to see her there

Kate Upton Is Engaged to Justin Verlander, Debuts Engagement Ring at the 2016 Met Gala: Photos

 

May 2, 2016 @ 7:44 PM By  Esther Lee

 

This model is getting married! Fan-favorite model Kate Upton is engaged to her longtime boyfriend, Justin Verlander, and debuted her new engagement ring on the red carpet of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute Gala in NYC, on Monday, May 2.

 

Upton showed a teeny sliver of her ring ahead of the Met Gala on Monday, when she posted a pic of herself prepping for the annual star-studded soiree. "On my way to the Met," the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model, 23, wrote, alongside a photo of herself at home with her pet boxer. "@topshop @peterbutlerhair @tracymurphymua @sweetbabyjamie." Barely noticeable on Upton's left ring finger was the diamond ring from Verlander.

 

The Other Woman actress flaunted the mega sparkler outside of the black-tie affair on Monday night. She was photographed walking out of the Bowery Hotel in the East Village, gently holding the train of her Topshop gown with the rock on her ring finger.

 

E! News was first to confirm on Monday that Upton and the Detroit Tigers pitcher, 33, are engaged. The stars have been on-again and off-again couple for the last three years, and inseparable since they last reunited in January 2014.

 

At the time, Us Weekly was first to confirm that the two were back together again after reuniting in the Bahamas. The future spouses first met while shooting a commercial for MLB 2K12 in 2012.

 

At an event this past March, Upton joked with Us Weekly that her her man gets along great with another special boy in her life.

"My boxer went to the field with Justin and saw this basket of baseballs and he was literally in heaven and now he has a baseball obsession," Upton, 23, told Us Weekly the Grand Slam Adoption Event at Joker Marchant Stadium in Lakeland, Florida, on March 31. "He also will only let Justin throw the balls to him — apparently he only wants a professional pitcher to play catch with him. I’m not good enough. Even if I throw the ball, he’ll bring it back to Justin and be like, 'She’s sweet for trying, but can you throw it now?'"

Thank you, @katchitup! I think the dress goes great with the occasion - her engagement ring!

However, the dress is a little bit safe considering the theme of the Met Gala but I think it’s best for her to go with a more traditional glamour look and leave the crazy fashion choices for other people. Plus she was with Topshop so that limited how far they could push the envelope.

 

Hmm, was this a case of a daughter telling her mother that she is engaged to be married? The timing seems to fit!
