Joey King and Steven Piet's love story is straight out of a fairytale.
The pair first crossed paths in 2018 on the set of The Act, in which King portrayed Gypsy Rose Blanchard. Piet served as a director and co-executive producer on the limited Hulu series, which premiered on the streaming service the following year.
Though the couple didn't take their relationship to the next level until about a year after they met, King and Piet have proven to be one of Hollywood's it-couples ever since King began posting photos of the pair via social media in November 2019.
Nearly two years after quarantining together during the COVID-19 pandemic, King revealed that Piet popped the question on February 22, 2022, in a heartfelt caption posted to Instagram.
"I never knew happiness could be so powerful that it can take the air from your lungs, overwhelming every part of you that you can’t help but feel your eyes well from the undeniable joy," the actress wrote alongside a series of photos from their engagement.
She continued, "I never knew that a person's presence and heart could feel like a real home. I never knew love could be so unquestionably beautiful. I never knew until you. The date was 2/2/22 when you asked me to marry you and made me the luckiest lady alive. I love you more than an Instagram caption could ever do justice. Hanging out with you forever sounds like a real dream, so let’s do it."
In August 2023, sources exclusively told Us Weekly all about King's bachelorette party and how wedding planning was going.
"She spent the weekend [in Napa, California] drinking wine, dancing and playing games with friends,” the insider dished. “She felt very showered with love, but the wedding is quickly approaching, so she’s really in the thick of it.”
A separate source added, "Joey wants a simple and elegant affair. She’s so excited to be a bride and [knows] Steven [Piet] is her soulmate. They both feel very lucky to have found each other.”
