'Don’t mind if I do': Kat Dennings engaged to musician Andrew W.K. after whirlwind romance
Kat Dennings is off the market!
The 34-year-old actress ("2 Broke Girls", "WandaVision") announced her engagement to 42-year-old musician Andrew W.K. (short for Wilkes-Krier) on Thursday after going Instagram-official in late April.
"Don’t mind if I do," Dennings captioned three Instagram pictures of her engagement ring, including a sweet picture of the couple sharing a kiss and an embrace. Wilkes-Krier shared the same series of photos on his Instagram account with a ring emoji.
The couple began their whirlwind romance earlier this year after meeting in Los Angeles, according to a press release provided to USA TODAY by Wilkes-Krier's manager Pete Galli.
This will be Dennings' first marriage. Wilkes-Krier was married to fellow musician Cherie Lily in 2008, but they "began amicable divorce proceedings in late 2019," according to the press release.
