Lucy Liu Announces Engagement in 2024
Hollywood icon Lucy Liu surprised her fans and the entertainment world on December 8, 2024, by announcing her engagement to longtime partner and entrepreneur Michael Tran. The announcement came via Liu’s Instagram, where she shared a heartfelt post featuring a black-and-white photo of the couple holding hands, with her engagement ring subtly visible. The caption read, “Found my partner in every way. Looking forward to our next chapter together ❤️.”
Tran, a technology innovator and philanthropist, has been linked to Liu since 2022. The couple reportedly met at a charity gala in Los Angeles, where they bonded over their shared commitment to humanitarian causes. Tran, 45, is the CEO of a green energy startup and has been recognized for his work in sustainability.
The proposal reportedly took place during a quiet getaway to Kyoto, Japan, a destination Liu has previously described as her “peaceful escape.” Sources close to the couple revealed that Tran proposed in a private garden surrounded by cherry blossoms, presenting Liu with a custom-designed ring featuring a sapphire center stone and diamonds—a nod to her love of art and unique beauty.
Fans and friends flooded social media with congratulatory messages, including Liu’s Charlie’s Angels co-star Drew Barrymore, who commented, “So happy for you both! Love you to the moon and back ❤️.”
Though Liu has largely kept her personal life private, she has spoken about the joy of finding love and balance in recent interviews. The couple is said to be planning an intimate wedding in 2025, focusing on family and close friends.
Liu, who continues to thrive in her acting and directing career, seems to be embracing this new phase of her life with characteristic grace and joy.
