Finneas and his longtime love are engaged. The singer/producer and older brother of Billie Eilish posted pics of engagement to his love of seven years Claudia Sulewski on Wednesday (Sept. 24).
The Instagram roll captioned “forever and ever 9.22,” opened with a snap of the happy couple hugging on a hillside at sunset, followed by a selfie snap of them sharing a sweet kiss, another in which Finneas, 28, goes trad and gets down on one knee to propose as
Sulewski, 29, freaks out and bends down to kiss him before the musician picks up his intended and carries her to the camera to show off her cushion-cut diamond ring.
The carousel also includes a short video of the happy couple on a helicopter ride, a close-up of Sulewski’s ring hand, another of the couple smiling into the camera (ring in full frame), as well as them snuggling in front of a roaring fire and another sunset kiss.
The good news inspired lots of well-wishes from some of the pair’s celebrity friends, including Hailey Bieber, who wrote “Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh😍,” while Paris Jackson exclaimed, “eeeeeeee” and Hailee Steinfeld added, “YAYYYYAYAY!!!!! Congratulations you 2!!!! 😍😍😍.” The happy couple also got congrats from Addison Rae, Dove Cameron, Finneas’ The Favors bandmate Ashe and Renee Rapp, among others.
Grammy-winner Finneas met YouTuber/actress Sulewski on a dating app in 2018 with Finneas (whose last name is O’Connell), telling Buzzfeed in 2019 that he wrote a song in her honor, “Claudia,” within hours of meeting her. “I wrote the song Claudia about Claudia the day that I met Claudia, and I sent it to her the night that I met Claudia,” he said at the time. “I sent her the first part and she texted me back, ‘You’re trouble.’ And then the chorus, which is the, ‘I’m in trouble now’ part. I was like, ‘Oh, that’s… cheers!’”
Back in Sept. 2022, Finneas marked the couple’s fourth anniversary with a sweet Instagram post in which he wrote, “You’d have to scour the globe to try to find someone equally as talented, creative and hard working as you are, my love. Then you’d have to do it a second time to try to find someone as kind, thoughtful and generous. A third time to find someone as funny, a fourth to find someone as loving, a fifth to find someone as beautiful. How you manage to be every one of these things all at once, will forever be the impossibility of you. Happy anniversary, Baby, I love the hell out of you.”
The pair have since creatively collaborated, including on his 2022 solo song “Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa,” whose intimate video Sulewski starred in and directed.
