Sam Smith, 33, has reportedly taken a major step with longtime partner Christian Cowan. Reports are swirling that the Grammy winner quietly got engaged after Cowan, 32, was spotted at the Mark Hotel on Monday wearing a massive square-cut yellow diamond Cartier ring on his wedding finger and was overheard discussing their engagement, according to Page Six. The source described the engagement as “private,” but said the couple appears to be “over the moon” about the development of their relationship. The pair first sparked dating speculation in December 2022 when they attended former President Joe Biden’s signing ceremony for the Respect for Marriage Act at the White House. But they didn’t officially hard-launch the relationship until 2024, when they made their red-carpet debut together at the Met Gala in complementary looks. Since then, the couple has become a Met Gala fixture. Monday marked their third consecutive appearance together, with both dressed in matching all-black ensembles designed by Cowan himself. Smith later revealed on Instagram that the dramatic looks were inspired by “Erté,” the famed Art Deco artist and designer.
