Post Malone, real name is Austin Richard Post, is officially off the market after the singer proposed to fashion stylist Christy Lee in August 2026 at his Utah ranch.
“A couple months before the proposal, Austin started casually slipping these very ‘hypothetical’ questions about rings into conversation, trying to figure out what I liked without giving himself away,” Lee recalled to Vogue. “One day, completely out of the blue, he asked me, ‘Pear, heart, or cushion?’ I told him I’d always thought there was something so chic about an oval.”
Cut to the big moment, Lee said that she was “speechless” when Malone knelt on bended knee with the 20-plus carat natural oval diamond ring of her dreams.
The rapper was previously engaged to Hee Sung “Jamie” Park, with whom he welcomed a daughter in 2022. The duo split in 2024, now sharing joint custody of their child whose name has never been publicly shared.

Who Is Christy Lee?
Christy Lee works as a fashion stylist after previously studying at Parsons School of Design at the New School in New York. Her tight-knit friend circle includes model Brooke Donovan, Matthew Madonna, Phoebe Mckean and Siena Suder — all of whom documented the couple’s engagement via Instagram.
“My work is rooted in styling, visual storytelling, and building a strong point of view through clothes,” a biography on her website reads. “I started as an assistant to a celebrity stylist, working across red carpet events, Cannes, Venice, Paris Fashion Week, and brand campaigns for Bloomingdale’s and Retrofête.”
She added, “Through those experiences, I learned how much styling is about trust, taste, and understanding how someone wants to be seen. My work now focuses on personal styling, editorial direction, and creative projects that connect fashion with identity.”
Post Malone and Christy Lee’s Relationship Timeline
The pair were first romantically linked in January 2025 when they were seen leaving the Mascagni Hotel in Rome. The following March, Malone and Lee were spotted together at a bar in Idaho, months before traveling together through Paris in April 2025.
News broke in June 2025 that Malone and Lee had called it quits one month earlier, but the couple eventually quietly rekindled their romance ahead of the musician’s surprise proposal in August 2026.
Inside Post Malone’s Romantic Proposal
Lee broke her silence on the engagement in an interview with Vogue published August 28, 2026, sharing that Malone popped the question on August 17, 2026, at his new ranch in Utah.
“Austin first surprised me with a baby Highland cow, bunnies, and chickens,” Lee told the outlet, revealing that Malone also hosted an intimate dinner with her friends and parents.
“There was something so special about being at our ranch, surrounded by the people we love most and all of our new little animals,” Lee gushed to Vogue. “The whole evening felt incredibly intimate and personal. It was the most special moment of my life.”
Christy Lee’s 20-Plus Carat Engagement Ring
Lee’s custom engagement ring, designed by Angel City Jewelers, features a 20-plus carat natural oval diamond set on a thin gold band — exactly what Lee had described in those “hypothetical” conversations with Malone months earlier.
“When I saw it, I was honestly speechless,” Lee told Vogue. “He had somehow taken all of those little conversations and created exactly what I would have chosen for myself.”
Angel City Jewelers, owned by Isaac Bokhoor and Sam Tack, showed off the sparkler on Instagram days later, describing it as a “20+ carats immaculate stone.”
“Blessed to have been able to work on this for my brother @postmalone What a project!” the company wrote.
The jeweler previously collaborated with Malone on his Dallas Cowboys diamond-encrusted pendant necklace, reportedly worth $250,000, as well as his 23-carat diamond-encrusted pinky ring with a 5-carat emerald cut center stone.
