Shortly after her breakup with Elordi, King began seeing Steven Piet, whom she met while working on "The Act." Piet was a producer on the Emmy-nominated miniseries, which starred King as Gypsy Rose Blanchard. According to E! News, the two were spotted cozying up during a screening of "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" in September 2019 while on a triple date with King's sisters and their dates. King and Piet were also seen together on the red carpet at the Walt Disney Studios Emmys party that same month, which they attended as nominees for "The Act."
On March 1, the couple announced their engagement — which took place on Feb. 2 — via Instagram. "I never knew happiness could be so powerful that it can take the air from your lungs, overwhelming every part of you that you can't help but feel your eyes well from the undeniable joy," King wrote in her post. "I never knew love could be so unquestionably beautiful. I never knew until you."
Piet also confirmed the news in his own Instagram post, writing, "You've unlocked a dimension of love in me that I never knew existed."
