Rhea Ripley and Buddy Matthews are ready to take their romance from the squared circle to the altar … ’cause the two wrestling stars just revealed they’re now engaged!!
Rhea — a WWE Superstar — shared the huge news on Instagram on Wednesday night … saying after Buddy proposed to her, she said “1000x YES!”
“Pure F***ing happiness! ❤️,” she added.
In the announcement, Ripley also showed off her new ring … and you can see Buddy — an AEW star known for his stoicism — was clearly thrilled over her decision to say yes too.
The engagement all went down at Cocoa Beach in Florida … with the couple showing on social media they had been having quite the vacation day prior to the life-changing moment.
The Australian duo confirmed their relationship in 2022 … after they had met just a couple years earlier while they were both wrestling for the WWE.
Now, their love is split across two promotions — as Matthews is one-third of the AEW World Trios Champion. Ripley, meanwhile, is currently involved in a WWE storyline where she has an on-screen romance — of sorts — with Dominik Mysterio … the son of luchador legend Rey Mysterio.
Like many wrestling storylines, however, that’s all for show … ’cause Rhea and Buddy couldn’t seem to be more in love!!! Congrats!
