Gabriella Brooks, the 29-year-old Australian model, has captured headlines not only for her stunning looks and burgeoning career but also for her recent engagement to Liam Hemsworth. The couple, who have maintained a relatively private relationship since they were first spotted together in December 2019, announced their engagement on September 12, 2025, via an Instagram post featuring Brooks showcasing her dazzling diamond ring.

Born on May 18, 1996, in Sydney, Australia, Gabriella Brooks began her modeling career at the young age of 14 after being discovered by a talent scout at a local event. This chance encounter paved the way for her entry into the competitive world of fashion, where she quickly signed with a prestigious modeling agency. Her "youthful charm and striking features" soon caught the attention of various brands, leading to numerous opportunities that shaped her career.

Brooks' career has seen her work with renowned brands such as Louis Vuitton, Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, Balenciaga, Chanel, Dior, and Versace. She has graced the covers of top fashion magazines and walked in major fashion shows for both established and emerging designers, solidifying her status in the industry. Her official high-fashion runway debut came in 2023 during Australian Fashion Week. Beyond the runway, Brooks has built a substantial following on social media, connecting with fans and sharing her journey. She has also used her platform to highlight important issues such as body positivity and mental health awareness.

Before fully dedicating herself to modeling, Brooks attended the University of Sydney, where she studied archeology and ancient history. Although she eventually left university to pursue her modeling career, she has expressed interest in potentially returning to school to study literature. In addition to her modeling career, Brooks has an acting credit in the short film Unremarkable.

Brooks' relationship with Liam Hemsworth began after his divorce from Miley Cyrus. The pair were first photographed having brunch with Hemsworth's parents in December 2019. They made their relationship Instagram official in June 2021 and walked their first red carpet together in November 2022. Despite their public profiles, Hemsworth and Brooks have prioritized keeping their relationship private. In a 2021 interview with Stellar magazine, Brooks stated that her "personal relationship is very, very important and very sacred" to her.

Prior to her relationship with Hemsworth, Brooks was in a four-year relationship with The 1975's frontman, Matty Healy, which ended in 2019.

Sources say that Hemsworth's family "loved her right away" and encouraged him to propose. "[S]imilar backgrounds and love for that laid-back beach life" bonded them. The couple reportedly plan to get married in Australia.
