Kian Lawley and Ayla Woodruff originally met through the dating app Raya.
The couple are engaged after almost six years of dating. Ayla was proposed to in a picnic setup with an emerald-cut center diamond. The caption of the announcement post read:
"IT HAPPENED!!! 💍❤️"
An hour later, Ayla uploaded an Instagram story, reflecting on her engagement, stating:
"For those of you who know us, marriage wasn't something we originally believed in. We had both seen things that's pushed us away from it, however we always knew our love was endless and our partnership was forever. Over time we changed our perception & realized our story was our own, no one else's."

Kian Lawley and Ayla Woodruff revealed that they first met on the dating app Raya, and Ayla said it ended up being her first and last date from the app. She shared that Kian was the one who said hi first. Ayla Woodruff later deleted Raya but gave him her number before doing so.
She said that about two weeks later, she got a message from an unknown number, which she didn't reply to. Almost a week later, she received another message from Kian Lawley telling her it was him. The two finally met in person a couple of weeks after that.
In March 2020, the couple announced that they were moving in together. Four years into dating, the couple announced the news of their pregnancy on social media. Sharing the news, Ayla Woodruff wrote in the caption:
"One day I download a dating app. I went on my first date with this cute boy I matched with & 4 years later…I’m having his baby🤍 Life & timing is so crazy, & I couldn’t be more thankful."
Last year, Kian Lawley and Ayla Woodruff celebrated their baby boy's first birthday. Kian Lawley shared an Instagram post with a photo of their son and a caption admiring him:
"My beautiful boy turns 1 today. This past year has been the most amazing, wonderful, exhausting, challenging, rewarding & best year of my life. To my son, you have taught me how to be a better man, how to care & how to love in a completely different way I didn’t know was possible. There aren’t words that can express the love I have for you, so for now, the three words will do."
In July, the couple announced that they've purchased a home together and shared the milestone online.
Following the engagement announcement, fans are now curious about when the wedding will happen, but the couple hasn't revealed any details yet.
