Canadian actor Simu Liu is officially engaged to his longtime girlfriend, Allison Hsu. The Kim’s Convenience and Shang-Chi star shared the happy news on Sunday, posting a series of photos featuring the couple dressed in elegant all-white outfits, with Hsu sporting a sparkling diamond ring.
The engagement took place in Paris, with the dreamy Eiffel Tower giving a picture-perfect backdrop. Liu captioned one post simply, “Us forever.” In another heartfelt message, he wrote, “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 (sic).”

The announcement was met with an outpouring of love from fans and celebrities, including Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Florence Pugh, John Legend, and others. Pugh enthusiastically commented, “AHHHHHHH HOW AMAZING! Sending love to you both (sic).” The Sky is Pink star added a series of celebratory emojis, while musician John Legend wrote, “Congratulations.”
“Shang Chi And The Legend Of The Engagement Ring,” a fan wrote. “Goddamn I was holding out hope. Congrats Alison, you win!!! But legit, cutest couple, much love,” another fan commented.
Liu and Hsu have been together since late 2022, gradually becoming one of Hollywood’s most admired couples. Though often seen gracing red carpets together — including the 2024 Vanity Fair Oscars afterparty — they’ve largely kept their relationship low-key.
In a 2023 interview with People, Liu opened up about what made their bond special, saying Hsu made him feel “challenged and loved and cared for.” Speaking to InStyle in March last year, Liu said he doesn’t believe in soulmates. “I think sometimes we forget that we ourselves are changing, evolving beings, and sometimes people grow in different directions no matter how right for each other they were right at a specific moment in time,” he said.
