Will Reeve has found his Supergirl.

The ABC News correspondent and son of "Superman" star Christopher Reeve popped the question to girlfriend Amanda Dubin over the weekend, the couple revealed in a joint Instagram post on Sunday. In one photo, Reeve, 32, can be seen kneeling in front of the event planner as they stand in a room decorated with floral arrangements and candles. "Us 🤍," the pair wrote.

Other photos show the newly engaged couple sharing smooches and holding hands following their engagement. One image includes a snapshot of Reeve's and Dubin's loved ones sharing in the joy of Reeve's proposal with excited grins.

In a follow-up statement to People magazine, Reeve and Dubin said of their engagement: "Friday was the happiest night of our lives, and we can't wait to spend forever together."

The couple seemingly confirmed their relationship in April 2023 with Instagram posts that showed the couple's Parisian getaway for Dubin's birthday.

Reeve's father Christopher, who was left paralyzed after a 1995 horse riding accident, died in 2004 at age 52. The news personality's mother, actress and singer Dana Reeve, died two years later in 2006 following a lung cancer diagnosis. Reeve was orphaned at 13.

In a September interview with USA TODAY to promote the documentary "Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story," Reeve said of his late parents: "They raised me in a normal, human, grounded way, which, mostly, gives me a sane approach to everything that life throws at you."

"Those five stages of grief are there, from denial to acceptance, but the sixth stage I've learned is healing and we can all get there," Reeve added. "Grief is permanent, but healing is possible. That is a mantra for me. I try to honor them by how I live and treat other people."
