Bella Thorne and entrepreneur Mark Emms have been engaged since May 2023, after meeting at a beach party in Ibiza the previous summer. The couple, who started dating in August 2022, continues to share sweet moments, including Bella's surprise proposal back to Mark in August 2025. Despite the milestone, they're in no rush to wed, focusing on careers first.
Oh, darlings, grab your popcorn because Bella Thorne's love story with Mark Emms is serving all the rom-com vibes without the scripted drama. The 28-year-old actress and director spilled the tea to Vogue on May 26, 2023, announcing her engagement after Mark, 46, popped the question the night before Mother's Day with a jaw-dropping 10-carat emerald-cut diamond ring. 💍 They first locked eyes at Cara Delevingne's August 2022 birthday bash on an Ibiza beach—love at first sight as the sun rose, Bella gushed. By the end of that month, paparazzi caught them kissing in Mykonos, and PEOPLE confirmed the pair was "having fun" as things heated up fast.
Fast-forward to now, and these two are still going strong. Bella introduced Mark to her fans via social media during her 25th birthday celebration, calling it the perfect way to ring in the milestone. In a plot twist that had us all swooning, Bella flipped the script in August 2025 by proposing back to him—complete with Instagram posts of candles and heart-shaped balloons. Iconic! But don't hold your breath for wedding bells just yet; Bella told E! News they're prioritizing work, like her directorial debut film, before diving into planning.
Now, who's this British heartthrob stealing Bella's spotlight? Mark hails from London and built his empire in entertainment. He launched Fire Global Media Productions in 2008, shut it down in 2019, and pivoted to Eastern Road Films LLC that same year. His resume? A who's who of heavy hitters: Lionsgate, Netflix, Spotify, YouTube, 20th Century Fox. And the stars? Stevie Wonder, John Legend, will.i.am, Ellie Goulding, Dua Lipa—you name it, he's worked with them. His big break in the biz came via artist management and PR.
Mark's producing chops shine in Netflix's hit docuseries Bad Vegan: Fame. Fraud. Fugitives, which dives into the wild tale of vegan chef Sarma Melngailis and her conman hubby Shane Fox, who swindled $2 million from her NYC restaurant Pure Food & Wine. Mark told Yahoo! Entertainment, "I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. It was the most bizarre and surreal story I’d ever heard... it felt important that it be told to a wider audience." Shocking, right? Meanwhile, Bella dreams of a UK countryside wedding in vintage Schiaparelli or Dior—maybe four gowns, because why not? So, when's the big day, or are they just vibing in engaged bliss forever? 🔥
