Spencer Barbosa Is Engaged to Her Childhood Crush, and the Internet Can’t Handle the Pink Diamond Ring

From childhood acquaintances to soulmates, influencer Spencer Barbosa just announced her engagement to longtime boyfriend Connor, complete with a dreamy pink ring and an oceanfront proposal.

The 23-year-old influencer announced she’s engaged to her boyfriend, identified only as Connor, with an emotional beach photo session and a ring reveal that had followers pausing TikTok just to catch the sparkle. And yes, they first met when they were both 11. Cue the childhood-sweetheart heart-eyes.

Beach, Bubbles & a Pink Diamond Proposal

Spencer revealed the engagement on Nov. 2 with an Instagram carousel featuring her in a white lace dress, standing in waves at sunset, while Connor, dressed in a light-blue polo, held her close as the ocean lapped at his tan trousers. Her caption? “my heart is full & my hand is heavy 💍”—a line so perfect we’re already making it into mood-board quotes.

Her new ring showed off a stunning pink diamond (yes, pink!) in a matching box and in a follow-up Instagram Reel, she declared it “literally the biggest diamond I have ever seen,” quipping that Connor “put a rock on my hand.”

 And when he asked, “Did I do a good job?” she cracked back, “You did the best job ever. This is the best day of my entire life.” The cape-waving emoji might’ve been missing, but the moment was superhero-level.

Over on TikTok, the celebration escalated: a behind-the-scenes clip of Connor filming the box opening, captioned “suddenly im sobbing again 🥹 he custom designed my dream pink engagement ring & tbh it’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.” And then, “FIANCE ERA UNLOCKEDDDDDD💍💍💍.” If authenticity had a filter, they turned it off.

From 11-Year-Old Classmates to Forever Partners

What makes their story particularly swoon-worthy: Spencer and Connor first crossed paths at age 11. 

According to Spencer, they attended the same high school, she flirted via DMs after moving away, and at a music festival he apparently rocked a Harley-Davidson shirt and cowboy boots, before anything official happened.

They maintained part of their connection through long-distance phases, and now the timeline has fast-forwarded to ring-popping bliss. Maybe the big lesson here? Childhood crushes can become grown-up love stories, and sometimes the best roots run years deep.

Next Chapter: Wedding Bells & Content Collabs

While Spencer and Connor haven’t yet revealed their wedding date, the engagement is locked, loaded and streaming on social feeds. 

Fans are already speculating about a sunset beach wedding (because hello, where better?) or perhaps a pastel-pink aesthetic that mirrors the ring’s hue. Whatever the venue, we can predict three things: emotional vows, TikTok-worthy ringside selfies, and an Insta story highlight that will last for years.

Spencer Barbosa’s engagement story checks all the boxes: a throwback to childhood, a modern-day romance, and a wrapped-in-style visual that Instagram loves. 

It’s real, it’s joyful, and it’s showing us that the influencer world can keep it heartfelt. Connor, you did a good job, the best job, in fact.
