Rise of the Phoenixes
Joaquin Phoenix and his former costar Rooney Mara are engaged!
The next Joker, Joaquin Phoenix, has something wonderful to smile about: his new fiancée, Rooney Mara! Rumors that he’d popped the question spread two months ago, when the Carol actress was spotted wearing a large diamond ring on her left hand in L.A. Now a source confirms the engagement to Us.
THEIR LOVE IS GOD
The talented duo — who both come from famous families (her sister is actress Kate Mara, his late brother is River Phoenix) met in 2016 on the set of Mary Magdalene, in which Mara, 34, played the title role opposite Phoenix,
44, as Jesus. Ever since, the two have shared a happy, lowkey life together. “Rooney has fully embraced Joaquin’s lifestyle — being holistic, vegan and spiritual,” a second source tells Us. “She’s even trying to find a holistic doctor for her dog!”
THEY DON’T REALLY GO OUT. THEY LIKE MAINLY TO BE JUST EACH WITH THEY’RE OTHER. OWN IN THEIR BUBBLE.” AN INSIDER TELLS US
