Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert and Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Madison Beer are engaged. The couple announced the news jointly on Instagram on July 28, 2026, sharing a photo of Herbert on one knee, holding a ring box in front of a smiling Beer. The caption read simply: "Meet my fiancé."

The post drew congratulatory responses from the NFL, the Chargers, and singer Gracie Abrams, among others. ABC News (AP)

Herbert, 28, is entering his seventh season as the Chargers' starting quarterback. Beer, 27, earned a Grammy nomination for her 2024 single "Make You Mine" and released her album lovergirl earlier this year — a project that brought the two even closer together. Herbert appeared in the music video for the album's title track in spring 2026. ABC News (AP)

The couple was first spotted together in August 2025. Since then, they have been a quiet but visible presence at each other's biggest moments — Beer on the sidelines at Chargers games, Herbert joining her on tour during the NFL offseason.

That tour overlap even drew a quip from Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh. When Herbert missed voluntary offseason workouts to travel with Beer's tour, Harbaugh reportedly asked him: "Do you need a ride to the airport?" — a line that captured the easy support the coach has voiced for the relationship.

Thomson Reuters published a wire story confirming the engagement the same afternoon.

No wedding date has been announced. Herbert is set to report to Chargers training camp as the team prepares for the 2026 season, while Beer continues to promote lovergirl.
