It's been less than a year since they started dating, and now, they're planning to walk down the aisle. It's official: Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger are engaged, and the Jurassic World star shared the news with the sweetest post on Instagram that also happened to show off Scwarzenegger's shiny new ring.

In the photo, Pratt and Schwarzenegger are all cuddled up, with her hand positioned perfectly on his shoulder to give fans a glimpse of her gorgeous engagement ring. And while Pratt didn't offer up any details about how he popped the question or what their wedding plans for the future might be, his caption made it obvious that they're both so excited for this next part of their life together.

"Sweet Katherine, so happy you said yes!" Pratt wrote. "I’m thrilled to be marrying you. Proud to live boldly in faith with you. Here we go!"

So far, Katherine hasn't shared the news on her own Instagram account, but Pratt's announcement says it all. The couple seems so happy, and although they've chosen to keep a lot of their relationship private, it's sweet that they decided to share such an important moment in their life together.

News that Schwarzenegger and Pratt were dating first broke in June 2018, when they were spotted having a picnic together on Father's Day. Then, in August, they were spotted having lunch with Pratt's five year old son, Jack, in Los Angeles, which was one of the earliest hints that things between them were getting serious... and then, they spent the holidays together, too. Pratt even joined Schwarzenegger's family on a trip to Cabo for New Year's, and now, the rest is history.

Considering that they'd been spending so much time together, it quickly became obvious that this couple wasn't going anywhere. And then, in November, the first engagement rumors surfaced when a source close to the couple told Us Weekly that they'd be getting engaged soon. Apparently, that source was right, because now, they're officially planning to spend the rest of their lives together.

And even though Pratt and Schwarzenegger have been together for several months now, they've largely kept their relationship off of social media. So far, Schwarzenegger has stayed pretty quiet about Pratt on her end of things, but last month, she made her very first appearance on Pratt's Instagram when he shared a very sweet birthday message for her on his page, along with a collage of photos — some of the first that had been shared of the two of them together.

"Happy Birthday Chief! Your smile lights up the room," Pratt wrote. "I’ve cherished our time together. Thrilled God put you in my life. Thankful for the laughs, kisses, talks, hikes, love and care."

It seems like Pratt and Schwarzenegger have already shared so many memorable moments together, even if many of them took place out of the public eye.

Congratulations to these soon-to-be newlyweds. Hopefully, they'll keep fans updated on their wedding plans on Instagram — judging by their relationship so far, it's sure to be a very special day.
