Dylan Sprouse and Barbara Palvin are engaged after nearly five years together, according to a new report.
Although they have yet to publicly confirm their engagement, Barbara was pictured earlier this month with a large diamond ring on her left ring finger.
She wore a gold band with a large diamond while hanging out with Dylan and mutual friends during the Mammoth Film Festival on Thursday, March 2nd.
A source told ET that the Hungarian supermodel, 29, has been “showing people her ring” since the former child star, 30, popped the question and is “so happy”.
They continued, “They are always very much in love with each other and by each other’s sides, but they are even happier than usual. They can’t wait to start this new chapter together.”

The couple began dating in June 2018 after meeting at a party the previous year.
Speaking to W Magazine in 2019, Dylan recalled messaging the beauty on Instagram after she happened to follow him on the app.
“She followed me, so I thought, I guess I’ll give her something. And I slipped into their DMs,” he told the outlet.
He tried to set up a meeting with the Victoria’s Secret model, but it took longer than expected for her to reply.
“I said, ‘Hey, I don’t know if you’re going to be in New York very long, but we should meet up if you want. Here’s my number.” And she hasn’t texted me for six months,” he recalled.
But Barbara took a big step by flying to China in 2018, where Dylan had six months of filming, to have their first official date.
She told PEOPLE that Dylan was immediately willing to calm down, but that she had some reservations.
“And then I was like, ‘OK, let’s do it.’ … I just sat down and took a deep breath and thought, “What am I waiting for? There’s no other guy I’d love more than I love him, and he’s got everything I need,” she recalled to the Drain.
Barbara later admitted to PEOPLE that from “the first minute we met,” she knew she was in love with Dylan.

They made their relationship official on Instagram in August 2018 and made their red carpet debut during New York Fashion Week in September.
They reportedly moved in together in January 2019, and Barbara was introduced to Dylan’s twin brother, Cole, the following month.
Barbara and Dylan haven’t been shy about showing their love for one another on social media, as has the number of events they’ve attended together over the years.
The Disney Channel graduate was also an enthusiastic supporter of Barbara’s modeling career, which included crowning a Victoria’s Secret Angel in March 2019.
He sat front row when she walked the runway for the lingerie brand in 2018 and even brought her a post-show treat.
“He brings Shake Shack burgers for me,” Barbara revealed to PEOPLE as she hung out backstage with her fellow models.
Before dating Barbara, Dylan was in a long-term relationship with Dayna Frazer — who’s also a model.
The former couple dated from around 2013 to 2017. It was reportedly an on/off romance.

Dayna publicly accused the actor of cheating on her in an Instagram post shortly after their 2017 split, according to PEOPLE.
He later responded by sharing a series of tweets describing the situation as “complicated” and defending his character.
The Suite Life Of Zack And Cody star didn’t explicitly name Dayna in the posts.
“I will say this and only that: by sticking with an assumption based on limited information, you are neglecting the complicated nature of this problem,” Dylan began.
“Truth always has two sides, and those sides have motives, and those motives, while unclear at the moment, are private.
“It’s complicated and will remain complicated, but those who know me and who have known me know well enough what kind of person I am. And that’s it.’
As for Barbara, the runway pundit has only featured in a handful of public romances over the course of her decades-long career.
She is said to have been romantically linked to One Direction alum Niall Horan and musician Julian Perretta.

Barbara told Vogue Australia in November 2018 that she’s never been into dating very much and actually “having a boyfriend isn’t normal for me.”
“I was single for six years,” she confessed to the outlet.
But after meeting Dylan, she said she finally found “the perfect man” for her.
“He is very kind and gentle. … That’s what I do on my day off: I spend it with the people I love, and I’m very much in love right now.”
