Simu and Allison have been dating since late 2022, and their relationship has been going strong despite their busy Hollywood schedules. In the Paris photos, the couple is seen wrapped in each other’s arms, grinning from ear to ear with the Eiffel Tower glowing behind them. The romantic vibes didn’t stop there. In a separate post, Simu shared a touching tribute: “From weekends in Paris, day trips to Palm Springs, long nights on set, afternoons vegging on the couch, and everything in between, I choose you forever and always.”
Allison didn’t hold back her excitement either. She replied to his post with an overjoyed, “I love you, fiancé!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” And honestly, it’s the cutest thing on the internet right now.
The engagement announcement set social media on fire, with a flood of love and support pouring in from fans and fellow celebrities alike. Florence Pugh, another Marvel alum, commented, “AHHHHHH HOW AMAZING! Sending love to you both ❤️.” John Legend kept it simple with a “Congratulations!!” while Finneas jumped in with a huge “YAYYYY CONGRATULATIONS!!!!” Clearly, Simu and Allison have Hollywood cheering for their love story.
Their love has been no secret. In a 2023 interview with People, Simu opened up about finding something real with Allison. He admitted that before meeting her, he felt stuck in situations that didn’t make him happy. “I think everyone knows the feeling of being in a situation where they’re not fully happy, and then all of a sudden for that to change… it’s such a breath of relief,” he shared. Meeting Allison changed everything. “It’s this feeling of ‘Oh, right, it does exist.’”
Simu even hinted at big family plans down the road. “I definitely see kids in my future,” he told People. “I would be surprised if I was not a father ten years from now.” He joked about how surreal it is watching his once-wild friends settle down and become responsible parents. “You’re looking at these guys and you’re like, ‘Oh my God, I never thought you would ever be responsible for another human life.'”
From Marvel movie sets to cozy couch nights, Palm Springs getaways to Parisian proposals, Simu Liu and Allison Hsu’s love story is straight out of a rom-com, and now it’s one step closer to the happily ever after.
