Nazanin Mandi will marry her beau, entrepreneur and investor Michael Gilroy, very soon! The actress, singer, and model just announced her engagement on her Instagram late Monday, Sept. 21, 2026. Let’s look at their ring and the moments leading to their engagement.
Nazanin Mandi’s Engagement Ring: A Closer Look
Nazanin Mandi’s engagement ring made its first public debut on September 21, 2026, in her Instagram announcement. In her loving dedication to her fiancé, she said, “The proposal was a complete fairy tale, but our truest joy lies in the calm we bring out in one another daily.”
The couple didn’t disclose any details about the ring as of press time. However, upon close inspection, it appears to have a rather colossal pear-cut solitaire diamond. It’s mounted on a sleek platinum or white gold band, preceded by a simple medium-wide eternity band with a textured center.
It also appears that Michael slipped both rings on her ring finger. The couple’s first few photos showed them bare and with no rings.
Michael had the room for his proposal decorated with bouquets of roses and candles, making it ultra-romantic. They later had their post-engagement photoshoot on the grand stairs. They prettified and adorned the spiraling stairs with red roses and candles on one side. The couple was chilling down the stairs, with their celebratory glasses of champagne together.
Nazanin gushed over her beau, adding that, “My Michael, The respect, peace, and love we share are otherworldly. They are the foundation of everything we are building together. You are truly one of one. The man who changed my life in the deepest, most sincere way.”
Nazanin and Michael’s Love Story
The couple has been very private with their relationship, with Nazanin only hinting at it back on July 1 on her Instagram account. Michael was only partially seen in a carousel of photos of them snacking, hanging out, and posing in fashionable looks, but for those in the know, she captioned it with “life update: when you know, you know.”
Michael Gilroy is the co-founder of Marathon, a technology investment firm. He and his fiancée are discreet with their relationship, so there are no details available when the couple started dating or when they met.
It’s a new beginning for Nazanin, having ended a long-term relationship and marriage to musician Miguel in October 2022, after 10 years of dating, 2 years of engagement, and almost 4 years of marriage.
