Riverdale's Vanessa Morgan is Engaged to Michael Kopech!

Congratulations are in order for Vanessa Morgan and Michael Kopech!

The 27-year-old Riverdale actress and the 23-year-old baseball pitcher for the Chicago White Sox are now engaged, they announced on Wednesday (July 3).

“My Forever 😭💍♥️,” Vanessa captioned a gorgeous shot of the proposal on Instagram, which took place in front of Mooney Falls near the Grand Canyon in Arizona.

Vanessa and Michael first went public with their relationship about a year ago.

“So I’ll start with the obvious: I love you,” Michael captioned an Instagram video of the proposal (below). “I love you intensely, passionately, & also at times, recklessly. I make decisions on the spur of the moment (i mean look at how our relationship has gone up to this point). I’m a very non traditional type of person and I know I’ve found mymatch in you when it comes to that especially.”

“Our relationship probably doesn’t make sense to many people for a sh*t ton of reasons, but we’re not doing it for them,” he continued. “We know this is forever. Why would we wait? lol. You literally stayed by my side when I felt I had lost my mind. You stayed by my side for these seemingly random changes of my life. You stayed when often times I didn’t deserve it. You’ve loved me for ME from day one. Completely unselfishly. You’re undeniably the spark that reignited my fire. You’re deserving of much more than just this moment but this one just felt particularly magical. I’m incredibly humbled by the love that you give and I only hope I can portray a fraction of the love and light that you carry with you.”

“I’ll never have enough words to tell you how much I love you, but I promise to always show you,” Michael Kopech finished writing to Vanessa Morgan. “But for now, I’ll finish this how I started: I love you. SO MUCH. @vanessamorgan.”
