Carrie Fisher's daughter Billie Lourd got engaged to her boyfriend of three years.
The “Booksmart” actress’ now-fiance, Austen Rydell, confirmed the news with a series of photos of the pair on Instagram.
“💍💍💍She said YES!!” Rydell, 28, announced.
He added: “(Actually she said 'Duhhh') But I guess that’s even better than yes?!? 💗🤪🎉🎰💥🍾.”
Lourd, 27, and Rydell rekindled their romance in 2017 after previously dating at a younger age.
The “Scream Queens” actress is less active on social media. Her last post of Rydell was in April for his birthday.
"Happy birthday to my #quaranteenagedream @avstenrydell #iloveyouisanunderstatement !!! 💝❤️💖💜💓💙💗💛💘🧡💚💞🖤💕,” she wrote.
For Valentine’s Day, she gushed about the “Millie and Jerry” actor and said, “All ‘round the world you make my world go ‘round #toinfinityandbaeyond.”
Rydell called Lourd "the best girl in the world” in his own Valentine’s Day tribute.
