Berry shared the news during a recent appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, clearing up confusion about their relationship status. While rumors had circulated that she once turned down Hunt’s proposal, Berry explained that wasn’t exactly the case. She revealed that she did accept his proposal, but the couple simply has not set a wedding date.

“There’s been some confusion,” she said with a laugh. “Of course, I said yes. We just don’t have a date.” She also proudly showed off her engagement ring on the show, joking that Hunt “did put a little ring on it,” leaving Fallon and the audience impressed by the size of the diamond.

Their love story began in 2020, when they first connected virtually during the COVID-19 pandemic. What started as online conversations quickly grew into a strong bond. Berry later made their relationship public on social media, confirming that she was dating Hunt and sharing playful posts that hinted at their romance before going official.

Over the years, the couple has spoken openly about their connection and the way they support one another.

Despite their engagement, Berry has emphasized that marriage is not something they feel pressured to do for validation. Having been married three times before, she has been honest about approaching this relationship differently. She previously explained that while they don’t feel the need to marry to prove their love, she believes Hunt is the person she truly should have married from the beginning. For them, the idea of marriage is about desire rather than obligation.

Now, with their engagement confirmed, Berry appears happier than ever. While there’s no set wedding date yet, she made it clear that she and Hunt are excited about what lies ahead and are enjoying every moment of their journey together.
