Is there a cuter couple than Becky G and Sebastian Lletget? The 25-year-old singer has been dating the 30-year-old FC Dallas soccer player since June 2016, and now they’re engaged! On Dec. 9, the pair announced the exciting news on their Instagram, writing, “Our spot forever.” The post also included snaps from their oceanside proposal and Becky G’s massive engagement ring.
From red carpet date nights to trips around the world, these two always seem to have the best time together. In an interview with POPSUGAR back in 2021, Becky G discussed her ideal first date, saying, “My ideal first date has to do with food, so I think [Lletget] did really good on that one. We went to get sushi, so that’s also really good. Just good conversation, that’s my ideal first date. I don’t like noisy places.”
Becky G also revealed that she was the one who made the first move in their relationship. “I remember mutual friends [Jordan and Naomi Scott] kind of talking and putting in groundwork on each end. Jordan had played with Sebastian in the past, and his wife, Naomi, was my castmate in the movie that I was filming at the time. They kept playing cupid, and they didn’t tell either one of us who we were or what we did because they didn’t want us to fall under the pressure of, ‘Oh, superstar dating athlete! Oh, perfect match made in heaven,’ because they knew who we were as people,” she explained. “I followed him on Twitter and he followed me back, and I remember it was like this ghost-y, ‘I know you exist, you know I exist,’ thing. I waited a couple days after my 19th birthday just to sound older, which is so funny to me now . . . he was like 23 at the time . . . so I slid in the DM real hard and I was like, ‘Hi, what’s up?’ So groundbreaking!”
She continued: “Honestly, we became friends first. We were vibing so hard. I was living in Vancouver and he was living here in LA playing for Galaxy, so it wasn’t like we could go on a date. We were really forced to get to know each other, and it was nice.” And the rest is history! Ahead, read through to see Becky G and Lletget’s best moments together!
