Arjun Rampal and Gabriella Demetriades have taken their relationship to its next chapter. The couple, who have been together since 2018, registered their marriage in Goa on August 21, completing the formalities at the Sub-Registrar’s office in Mapusa in the presence of close friends. The wedding comes more than six years after the couple began dating and months after they publicly confirmed that they were engaged.
Who Is Gabriella Demetriades?
Gabriella Demetriades is a South African model, fashion designer and entrepreneur who built a career in fashion before becoming widely known in India through her relationship with Rampal. She began modelling as a teenager and later moved into fashion. In 2012, she launched her own label, Deme by Gabriella, which focuses on contemporary clothing and custom-made designs. Her work has also been worn by several Bollywood celebrities.
Gabriella also had a brief acting stint in India, appearing in the 2014 film Sonali Cable.
How Did Arjun Rampal And Gabriella Meet?
Arjun and Gabriella reportedly met through mutual friends in 2018. Their relationship began around a significant transition in Rampal’s personal life. The actor had announced his separation from former wife and model Mehr Jesia in May that year after nearly two decades of marriage. Their divorce was finalised in 2019. Rather than rushing into marriage, Arjun and Gabriella built a family together first.
Their first son, Arik, was born in 2019. The couple welcomed their second son, Ariv, in July 2023. Rampal also has two daughters, Mahikaa and Myra, from his marriage to Mehr Jesia.
Arjun Rampal And Gabriella’s Engagement Came Six Years Later
For years, the couple did not appear to be in a hurry to formalise their relationship. That changed in December 2025, when Arjun revealed during an appearance on Rhea Chakraborty’s podcast that he and Gabriella were engaged. The revelation came casually during a conversation about marriage. Gabriella initially responded to a question about whether they were married by saying, “Who knows?” Arjun then clarified that they were engaged.
Eight years after their relationship began, Arjun and Gabriella have now officially become husband and wife.
Their Goa marriage marks the latest chapter in a relationship that has already seen them navigate parenthood, blended family life and years in the public eye, largely on their own terms.
