Camila Mendes, known for her role as Veronica Lodge on Riverdale, is engaged to musician and actor Rudy Mancuso. Mancuso proposed on Friday, October 24, during a surprise engagement party that Mendes believed was a birthday celebration for their producing partner Rachel Matthews. The intimate gathering included close family and friends, followed by continued festivities at actor Glen Powell’s themed birthday party. Mendes, 31, and Mancuso, 33, were seen in high spirits, with Mendes wearing a blue tracksuit and Mancuso in a beige sweater. She later showcased her engagement ring, a solitaire diamond set into a thin band, at the party.
The couple met while filming the 2024 romantic comedy Música, which Mancuso directed and Mendes starred in. They began dating in November 2022 and made their relationship public on Valentine’s Day 2023. Their on-screen chemistry translated into a strong off-screen connection, leading to their engagement after nearly three years of dating.
Mendes continues to make strides in her acting career, with recent projects including the 2025 comedy film Idiotka, which premiered at the South by Southwest (SXSW) festival in March. She also starred in the 2024 romantic comedy Upgraded, a modern-day retelling of the classic fairytale “Cinderella”. Additionally, Mendes is the new face of Adidas Running, featuring in campaigns for the Supernova Rise 2 sneakers.
Fans and industry peers alike are celebrating Mendes’ engagement and eagerly anticipating her upcoming projects. Her continued success in both her personal and professional life reflects her growth and versatility as an actress and public figure.
