Josh Lucas and meteorologist Brianna Ruffalo are engaged after 2 years together: 'I got crazy lucky'
"For the last two years in every way and every day this beautiful soul has made me and my life better, deeper, and more whole," wrote the "Yellowstone" actor.
After two years of dating, Josh Lucas and meteorologist Brianna Ruffalo have announced that they are engaged.
The Yellowstone and Palm Royale actor, 53, shared the happy news in an emotional Instagram post alongside footage from the festive meal during which he popped the question. The videos feature Ruffalo tearfully smiling in Lucas’ direction as table-side musicians perform an acoustic version of Elvis’ “I Can’t Help Falling in Love” for the couple.

"For the last two years in every way and every day this beautiful soul has made me and my life better, deeper, and more whole," Lucas wrote in his Saturday post. "I am so grateful and thrilled she said 'Yes.'"
He continued, "I WAY love you, Brianna. & Thank you to our families and all the people and places that made this come true. I am absolutely aware I got crazy lucky."
The ABC7 meteorologist showed off her glittering new engagement ring in her own post, sharing additional footage of the couple's dinner together.
"Almost two years ago this fall, and with no expectations, Josh walked into my life," she wrote. "And we knew almost immediately we had each found our person in a way we've never experienced — on every level."
Addressing the engagement news, she added, "This was the easiest and best question I've ever answered. So, here's to forever with my love, my best friend. I can't wait to keep living this life with you."
Lucas and Ruffalo took their relationship public after one year together and have since been spotted at various premieres and Hollywood events, with them also showing off their adventures on one another’s social media. Earlier this year, at the March premiere of Lucas’ Apple TV+ series Palm Royale, Ruffalo joked that despite their romance, she didn’t side with Lucas when it came to his character in the Reese Witherspoon rom-com, Sweet Home Alabama.
"I'm Team Patrick Dempsey." she told E! News.
Lucas added that Ruffalo has never wavered on that particular stance. "From day one, she was like, 'Oh yeah, you were the other guy.' She was like, 'I didn't like you because you, like, stole her from Patrick.'"
More recently, Ruffalo shared photos of the couple traveling through Italy.
"Back to the motherland," she wrote. "Favorite place with my favorite guy."
Lucas has a 12-year-old son, Noah, from his previous marriage to writer Jessica Ciencin Henriquez. The couple divorced in 2014, two years after they wed.
