Actor Arjun Rampal has been living with his girlfriend, Gabriella Demetriades, for a long time. The couple also has two sons together. However, they never tied the knot. Now, it turns out that the couple has taken the first step towards marriage. Arjun Rampal has confirmed that he and Gabriella are engaged. He made the confirmation during an appearance on Rhea Chakraborty’s new podcast, Chapter 2.
Arjun Rampal and Gabriella get engaged
Rhea Chakraborty shared a teaser from the episode featuring the couple, in which Gabriella said, “We’re not married now, but who knows?” Reacting to the statement, the Dhurandhar star said, “We are engaged! We just broke it on your show.”
Arjun and Gabriella have been together since 2019 and have two sons, Arik and Ariv. On the show, the couple spoke about love, parenting, and how their relationship evolved. Gabriella said, “Your love comes with conditions. It’s like if a person behaves a certain way, then they get my approval or love. But when you have a child, you can’t do that, right?”
The couple also joked about how they got together. Gabriella quipped that she did not approach Arjun because he was really hot. Rampal reacted honestly and said, “No, no. I went after her because she was hot. Then I realised there is a little more to it than just the hotness.”
For the unversed, Arjun Rampal married model Mehr Jesia in 1998, and the couple welcomed two daughters, Mahikaa and Myra. After being married for nearly two decades, they decided to part ways in 2018.
Some time later, Arjun introduced Gabriella as his girlfriend, and the couple are now parents to two sons.
Arjun Rampal’s work front
The actor is currently enjoying the success of his recently released film Dhurandhar, which is witnessing a phenomenal run at the box office. Overwhelmed by the audience’s love, Arjun Rampal—who plays a pivotal role in the film—took to Instagram to pen a note of gratitude.
“Ladies & Gentlemen, we were not ready for this. Thank you, thank you, thank you for this incredible love, support and acceptance you have given Dhurandhar, which is a vision and passion of one man, my boiya (Kashmiri for brother) adityadharfilms. The day you narrated the film to me, I realised how important a story you wanted to tell, unfolding in the most unique narrative style. The level of research, the depth in all the characters, and the creation of each character—from their look to their attitude—was remarkable. You surprised me and kept surprising me. Most importantly, you absorbed all the pressure while filming and never had a bad day. Thank you, boiya. Love you,” he wrote.
