Is Russell Crowe engaged? 

In mid-2025, rumours of Britney and Russell’s alleged engagement spread. Given the pair are incredibly private, they neither confirmed or denied the rumours until months later. 

During a 60 Minutes chat with Karl Stefanovic, the Australian actor shut down the claims. 

“All these reports keep coming out saying that Britney and I are engaged and I’m going to get married again. No, we are very very good friends and we have a wonderful relationship,” he shared.

“My life is so joyous and happy at the moment. Why would I ruin that with a wedding? Why would I go through [that]?

“I’ve been married once, you know, I know how it can go and where it can go. So, I don’t need to go to that place… I’m not going to get married again. Doing it once is cool. Great. But I don’t want to do it again.”
