In June of this year, Rebel announced that she is in a relationship with influencer Ramona Agruma. “I thought I was searching for a Disney Prince… but maybe what I really needed all this time was a Disney Princess," Rebel penned at the time, along with a sweet photo of the pair together.

Rumours began to fly in recent days that the couple had gotten engaged, but Rebel has since shut down those rumours. "Thanks for the well wishes but we are NOT engaged!", the actress confirmed via Instagram.
