Actress and singer Ryan Destiny is officially engaged to longtime partner and fellow actor Keith Powers. The couple announced the happy news over the weekend with a joint Instagram post showcasing Destiny’s stunning engagement ring and a series of romantic photos. The caption simply read:
“Engaged to the love of my life.”
The announcement immediately sent social media into celebration, as fans and fellow celebrities congratulated the pair on taking the next step in their relationship.
A Love Story Revisited
Ryan Destiny, best known for her roles in Star and Grown-ish, first met Keith Powers, whose credits include Straight Outta Compton and The New Edition Story, in the mid-2010s. The two began dating in 2017 and quickly became one of Hollywood’s favorite young couples.
In 2022, they confirmed their breakup, citing the pressures of busy schedules and a mutual desire for personal growth. Despite the split, the two remained on good terms and often spoke respectfully about each other in interviews.
Rumors of a reconciliation began swirling in late 2024 after the pair were spotted together at several industry events. Destiny later confirmed in early 2025 that they had rekindled their romance, describing their renewed relationship as “stronger, more grounded, and built on friendship.”
The Couple on Love and Partnership
Both Destiny and Powers have been open about the foundation of their bond—mutual respect and shared values.
In a May 2025 interview with People, Powers called Destiny his “best friend,” saying, “We’ve grown through so much together. No matter what happens, we always come back to each other.”
Destiny has also spoken candidly about the support she receives from Powers, calling him “a calm and loving presence” throughout her career. “He’s always believed in me,” she said, “even in moments when I doubted myself.”
Thriving Careers and Shared Success
Professionally, both stars continue to rise. Destiny recently earned critical praise for portraying Olympic boxing champion Claressa Shields in The Fire Inside (2024), a performance that placed her among Hollywood’s most promising young talents.
Powers, meanwhile, continues to build his acting résumé with upcoming roles in The Gates and Trip. The couple often credits one another with helping navigate the challenges of fame and career demands.
What’s Next
Neither Destiny nor Powers has revealed details about their upcoming wedding, but fans are already speculating about the guest list, venue, and possible designer behind Destiny’s engagement ring.
The engagement marks a full-circle moment for the couple, who have weathered the highs and lows of both love and fame in the public eye. As they step into this new chapter together, one thing is clear—their story is one of resilience, respect, and real connection.
Congratulations to Ryan Destiny and Keith Powers on their engagement.
