Halsey has been eyeing her fiancé, Avan Jogia, for quite some time.
During her Feb. 13 appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, the “Bad at Love” singer revealed she’s been in awe of Avan, who she got engaged to last September, since his early days on Nickelodeon’s Victorious. In fact, Halsey confirmed to host Jimmy Fallon that she watched the series—whichaired from 2010 to 2013—when she was a teen.
“Yeah, I did,” she said, adding she found out about the sitcom, which also starred Ariana Grande and Victoria Justice, from her two younger brothers Sevian and Dante. “I would come home every day after school to babysit them and [Victorious] was on. Sometimes, my brothers would not be in the room and I would watch the show.”
The 30-year-old, whose real name is Ashley Frangipane,said her siblings often accused her of only watching the series because she had a crush on Avan’s character, Beck. And while they were joking, their detection was spot on.
“I did think Beck was cute,” she said with a smug smile. “Sorry.”
Halsey continued, noting Sevian and Dante are amused that she’s now engaged to her teen crush. She later recalled the details of her proposal, which happened while they were spending some quality time together on a yacht.
“We were out in the water, and I was thinking, ‘I think I’m going to get proposed to this week,’ but I didn’t think it was going to happen at this moment,” Hasley said of the sweet engagement. “We were both sun-drunk and it was that stage where you’re in your bathing suit, your belly is out, and you’re eating food. It wasn’t a sexy thing.”
While the atmosphere wasn’t aesthetically pleasing, she was still stunned once Avan, 33, moved them to a different section of the boat and showed her an engagement ring. As for how the Twisted actor proposed, Halsey said he asked, “What’s a little bit of marriage between friends?” She kept her response lighthearted, saying, “Yeah, I’ll do a little bit of marriage with you. I would prefer to do a lot of it.”
Since this romantic moment, Avan has also bonded with her 3-year-old son Ender Aydin, whom she shares with ex Alev Aydin. “He has a relationship with my son now, and just watching the way he shows up for my son in such an authentic way,” Halsey said in an Oct. 30 episode of Call Her Daddy, “I was like, ‘OK, you really are just the best person.’”
