Zoë Kravitz shocked fans when she casually mentioned she was engaged to fellow actor Karl Glusman in an October 2018 Rolling Stone interview — and that the proposal occurred eight months prior. The two wed the following June at a Paris mansion owned by Kravitz's father, rock star Lenny Kravitz.

However, 18 months after their wedding, Kravitz filed for divorce, which was finalized in August 2021.

In February 2022, the actress told ELLE that Glusman is "an incredible human being" and that their divorce was "more about me learning how to ask myself questions about who I am and still learning who I am, and that being okay. That's the journey I'm on right now."

"I love that it wasn't on an app and that it wasn't on a movie set," she said. "My friend knew that I wanted to meet someone — not even to get serious, I think just to get laid, to be completely honest with you — and he brought Karl. I instantly felt something — then he turned around and started talking to the blonde girl next to him and I was like, 'Wait, what?' But he later told me that he was just nervous."

In October 2018, Kravitz revealed the engagement news in a Rolling Stone cover story.

"Oh yeah, I'm engaged," the Big Little Lies star confirmed after the reporter spotted her ring, adding that he proposed in February of that year. "I haven't told anyone yet — I mean, I haven't told the world. I wanted to keep it private."

"I was in sweatpants," she recalled to Rolling Stone. "I think I was a little drunk. I could feel his heart beating so fast — I was like, 'Baby, are you okay?' I was actually worried about him! I love that it wasn't this elaborate plan in Paris. It was at home, in sweatpants."

Before confirming her engagement, Kravitz subtly wore her diamond engagement ring without fans knowing for eight months. In fact, she flashed her sparkler on the 2018 Met Gala red carpet in May.

The engagement ring was curated by The One I Love, an antique and modern jewelry store in N.Y.C., and the owner, Mia Moross, worked with Kravitz and Glusman to create the perfect ring.

The actress chose an "extremely rare" vintage ring that is unique thanks to the size of the diamonds and its pristine nature. The store described the piece as an "18th Century diamond half-loop" that features a row of collet-set rose-cut diamonds in a closed back setting of silver-topped gold, which allows for the stones to emit a rich smoky hue."

He's one of the most honest people I've ever met and I feel like I've known him since I was a kid, even though I haven't. There's this connection where it's like we've always known each other, we've always lived together. It doesn't feel like this foreign thing. We have a history, it feels like. You know how sometimes you have a weird part of your personality only your friends know from when you were young? We have that same part of our personalities if that makes sense."
