Engagement revealed on Rhea Chakraborty’s podcast
On Saturday, December 13, Rhea Chakraborty shared a video on social media featuring a trailer of her podcast Chapter 2, with Arjun and Gabriella appearing together to talk about their love story, marriage, and family.In the clip, Gabriella candidly says, “We’re not married now, but who knows?” — prompting Rampal to make a revelation that instantly caught attention. “We are engaged! We just broke it on your show,” he said, confirming their engagement.During the conversation, Gabriella reflected on how parenthood reshaped her understanding of love. “Your love comes with conditions, it’s like if a person behaves this way, then get my approval or love. But when you have a child, you can’t do that, right?” she said.The couple, who have been together since 2019, are parents to two sons, Arik and Ariv.
‘I went after her because she was hot’
Rampal also spoke about a deeply personal loss — the passing of his mother, Gwen Rampal, in 2018. Opening up about grief, he said, “Support when you lose your parents, nobody can prepare you for. So, I always say losing a parent is liking losing a limb.”Adding a lighter moment to the conversation, Gabriella revealed that she hadn’t approached Arjun because of his looks and hoped he hadn’t done the same. Rampal’s candid reply drew laughs.“No, no. I went after her because she was hot, then I realised there is a little more to it than just the hotness,” he said. Arjun Rampal was previously married to model Mehr Jesia, with whom he shares two daughters, Myra and Mahikaa. The former couple continue to co-parent their children. Go to Source
