Where is Gabriella Brooks from? Parents and all about model engaged to Liam Hemsworth

Liam Hemsworth and Gabriella Brooks are now reported to be engaged after being in a relationship since 2019. The news of their engagement was announced by Gabriella Brooks just a few hours back on her Instagram. The actress, who is from Sydney, shared three pictures from her engagement, the details of which have still largely been kept private.

In the first picture, which has a black and white filter, she and the Hunger Games actor is seen posing for the camera. In the second, the model posted a picture of the beautiful beachside view, and in the third, she shared a closer look at her engagement ring.

According to People Magazine, Gabriella Brooks and Liam Hemsworth were first linked in December 2019, after they were pictured by paparazzi while out on a lunch with the actor's parents. This news came just a year after Liam Hemsworth's highly publicized divorce from Miley Cyrus had been announced.

Brooks and The Last Song actor have tried to keep their relationship away from the spotlight, with Brooks explaining in a 2021 interview with Stellar Magazine why she values her privacy when it comes to her relationship. As per an excerpt published by Cosmopolitan, she said:

“My personal relationship is very, very important and very sacred to me. And I feel like in an industry where so much is put out on show, there are some things you just want to keep to yourself. I completely understand [the interest in our relationship]. But at the end of the day, I guess I just like having that for me.”

Gabriella Brooks was born on May 18, 1996, in Sydney, Australia, and grew up in the city with her siblings and parents. Not much is known about her early life, but according to Famous Birthdays, she attended Sydney University, where she studied archaeology and ancient history. In her 2021 interview with Women's Health Magazine, the model gave fans a rare sneak peek into her life, specifically her childhood, and said:

"I was born in Sydney to my Singaporean-Chinese mum and Kiwi dad. I’m one of five siblings. I’ve got an older brother who lives in the States, two younger sisters who are still in high school, and my dad had another baby last year in London. We were all quite sporty growing up. My family all water-ski and I used to be a gymnast – that was a big part of my childhood. I competed overseas. It was really exciting for my mum when I’d compete in Singapore."

She added:

"Looking back, I can’t believe how lucky I was. Every day we’d go down to the beach to swim. I was terrified of big waves when I was younger and Dad got me over that straight away. I’m still scared of sharks! This sounds very hippy, but I think there’s something really magical about the ocean. I love it.”

Gabriella Brooks started modeling from a young age after being discovered at the age of fourteen. According to her IMDB page, Brooks, who is currently represented by Elite Model Management, has worked with several brands like Calvin Kein, Topshop and others.

In her interview with Harper's Bazaar, Brooks opened up about the differences between when she was an up-and-coming model and the way models are discovered now, saying:

"When I started, you were kind of like a blank slate. People would poject ideas onto your face and that’s what modelling was, I guess. Whereas now, because of the internet and social media and all of these things, I feel there’s something really special about showing who you are to the world and presenting yourself as a rounded person, instead of just a face on a board.”

According to People Magazine, Gabriella Brooks had sparked engagement rumors last month after she was spotted out on a vacation with Liam Hemsworth, wearing a diamond ring on her finger. However, the exact details of when the engagement took place have not yet been announced.

She and Liam Hemsworth often post about each other on their social media, and she is often seen attending events with Liam Hemsworth's extended family members.
