Dove Cameron has started 2026 with big news. The singer and Descendants star is engaged to Måneskin frontman Damiano David. She shared some photos on Instagram that quickly caught fans’ attention. The announcement marks a new chapter for Cameron-David, who have mostly kept their relationship low-key while supporting each other’s creative work.
Dove Cameron gets engaged to singer Damiano David
Dove Cameron confirmed the engagement on Instagram at the start of the new year. She shared three photos of herself and Damiano David holding each other. The pictures clearly showed the engagement ring on her finger. She wrote, “My favourite part of being alive. Happy new year,” with a ring emoji.
Meanwhile, David shared the same photos on his Instagram. He kept his message short. “It’s gonna be a beautiful year.” The matching posts showed how well the couple is in sync. They often choose simple words instead of long explanations.
Cameron and David have been together for two years. They first met at the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards. Both were nominees for Best New Artist. Their connection grew later during awards season. David invited the 29-year-old backstage at Måneskin’s concert at Madison Square Garden.
According to Cosmopolitan, Cameron later shared how that first long conversation felt. They asked each other questions for hours, and were “slow and cautious.” Over time, that moment turned romantic.
Rumors about their engagement picked up late last year after the couple was spotted together in Australia. Cameron was seen wearing a ring that caught everyone’s attention. Not long after, they celebrated their second anniversary. She marked the moment on Instagram, calling it the two best years of her life. David replied sweetly in the comments, saying it was “the best part of being alive,” along with a heart emoji.
Dove Cameron’s engagement follows a very public personal journey. She was once engaged to actor Ryan McCartan in 2016, but the two went their separate ways later that same year. After that, she dated her Descendants co-star Thomas Doherty for about four years. Their split happened around the time Cameron openly came out as bisexual in 2020.
