Jennifer Lawrencehas found the man she wants to spend the rest of her life with.
E! News can confirm the 28-year-old actress is engaged to boyfriend Cooke Maroney, after over six months of dating.
The Red Sparrow star sparked rumors of an engagement on Monday night, when she was spotted sporting a “massive ring” at a recent dinner date in New York City. Page Six reported that the A-list couple went to dinner at the restaurant Raoul’s, where J. Law wore a black dress with white polka dots.
Now that the cat’s out of the bag, it all makes sense considering Jennifer’s previous comments about her desire to get married and the rose-colored lenses she seems to wear. In previous interviews, the Joy star has shared that she definitely daydreams about her big day, just like any other human being.
Although, at one point, J. Law did doubt whether marriage was ever in the cards for her.

Fairy Tale Ending
“I can’t wait to be married. I feel like if I find that one person who I want to spend the rest of my life with, who I want to be the father of my children, that I would absolutely not fuck it up,” the star candidly told Vogue in 2015. “But I’m also not banking on that.”

Love at First Sight

Wedding Planning
“Weddings rock, but I will never be a bridesmaid again,” she told Vanity Fair in 2016. “There needs to be a bridesmaids’ union. It’s horrendous. If anyone asks me again, I’m going to say, ‘No. That part of my life is over. I appreciate the ask.’ If I do ever get married, I don’t think I will have bridesmaids. How can I rank my friends?”

On Finding the One
In a revealing interview with Vogue, the celeb said, “When someone makes you insecure, it’s strangely exhilarating because you keep trying to fight for that validation. It’s what you want to have before you get married, so that you don’t seek it out once you are.”

Love Worth Fighting For
“I would never be mean to somebody who couldn’t be mean back,” the award-winning star said to Vogue. “But when you really love somebody, you fight with them.”

Change of Plans
She definitely changed her mind in recent months, but before getting engaged, the star told Diane Sawyer, “I don’t really plan on getting married. I might. I definitely want to be a mother. I don’t really imagine getting married anymore. I don’t feel like I need anything to complete me. I love meeting people, men, women, whatever, I love people coming into your life and bringing something.”

Hopes For the Future
The actress told Glamour, “Everybody has this idea: You have children, and your entire life is complete. That’s how I imagine it. I imagine I’ll have children and then my whole life will just seem complete.”

Independent Woman
“I don’t, like, date a lot. I don’t meet a lot of guys who I want to go on a date with. I’ll find a guy attractive maybe once a year. But I’m not a lonely person. Me not dating someone is not a lack of anything in any way. I feel completely fulfilled. Yes, when I spark with someone, it’s exciting, but I definitely don’t need that,” the actress shared with Glamour magazine.
