Arjun Rampal has officially confirmed his engagement to fashion designer and longtime partner Gabriella Demetriades, ending months of speculation. The 53-year-old actor made the announcement during an appearance on Rhea Chakraborty’s podcast Chapter 2, where the couple discussed love, parenthood, and their relationship. In a teaser clip released on December 13, 2025, Gabriella remarked, “We’re not married now, but who knows?” prompting Arjun to smile and say, “We are engaged! We just broke it on your show.” The full episode airs on December 14, 2025.
From Dating to Engagement: A Six-Year Journey
Arjun and Gabriella, 38, have been together since 2018, welcoming their first son, Arik, in 2019 and second son, Ariv, in 2023. Their relationship has been low-key yet steady, with the couple often sharing glimpses of family life on social media. Arjun, riding high on Dhurandhar’s success (nearing ₹300 crore), admitted in the podcast that he initially pursued Gabriella “because she was hot,” but soon discovered deeper layers. Gabriella reflected on parenthood reshaping love: “It becomes less about romance and more about behavior and responsibility.”
