As a dedicated follower of entertainment news, I can’t help but feel nothing but joy and admiration for Vanessa Morgan and her engagement to James Karnik. The Riverdale star has had quite the whirlwind journey in both her personal and professional life, and it seems that this holiday season is truly a blessing for her.

Riverdale star Vanessa Morgan is engaged to her Canadian boyfriend James Karnik.

On Instagram, Vanessa posted a series of images she’d meticulously arranged and had taken by a skilled photographer.

She captioned that post, ‘Merry Christmas Eve from me and my fiancé.’

Afterwards, she posted a joyful snapshot where she flaunts her latest jewelry with an excited arm raised towards the camera.

A broad grin adorns her face, while her tongue peeks out playfully. In the backdrop, her future spouse stands tall and imposing.

In her post, she expressed that this relationship serves as evidence of the beautiful blessings one receives when they wholeheartedly surrender and have faith in God’s impeccable timing. She is deeply appreciative to encounter such love in her life during its current phase. To emphasize her feelings, she included a heart and diamond ring emoji.

She shared the engagement scoop with People, telling the outlet that Kurnik scored big points for proposing at Christmas time. 

Morgan shared with the publication that since James is aware of my deep affection for Christmas, particularly the brilliant festive lights, he decided to take me to the Langley Glow Light Festival instead.

On our stroll, I genuinely anticipated a proposal on Christmas morning. However, the event took me entirely by surprise when it transpired unexpectedly.

She added, ‘It turned out James had hurt his foot – initially unsure whether it was a fracture or a strain, he was using crutches instead.’

In a casual manner, I inquired whether he was confident about using crutches to stroll around, to which he replied, “I’ll manage it for your sake, as I’m aware of your fondness for this activity.” It struck me as somewhat peculiar, but I chose not to give it too much thought.

Additionally, Karnik organized a skilled photographer who discreetly trailed the couple throughout their day.

Later on, surrounded by lights and crowds, James paused to apparently fix his shoe by setting down his crutches, which is when I began to think there might be more going on than met the eye, according to the actress.

‘He dropped his crutches, got down on one knee, and asked me to marry him.’

The ring that belongs to Vanessa boasts a stunning 4.64-carat lab-created diamond, encased within a 14K rose gold band. This exquisite piece also includes smaller marquise cut diamonds arranged in a design reminiscent of butterflies, adding an extra touch of beauty.

In that enchanting instant when I beheld the ring, its beauty left me breathless. Surrounded by twinkling lights, it seemed as if I’d unwrapped the most wonderful Christmas gift, Morgan expressed.

And Kurnik is just as excited about the proposal and their future together as Vanessa is. 

Karnik expressed his eagerness about the upcoming phase in life and shared that he’s overjoyed to be embarking on it with the companion he has.

Five months following the birth of their first joint child, Kaia Autumn Skye, the proposal arrived for the couple.

Apart from that, it’s worth mentioning that Vanessa has a three-year-old son named River who she co-parents with her former spouse, baseball player Michael Kopech, at the age of 28, who plays for the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Upon the arrival of little Kaia, the radiant Wild Cards star took to Instagram, expressing her joy in words: “I’ve been soaking up every precious moment of newborn cuddles for the past three weeks with our cherished angel. I am incredibly thankful.

Kaia’s mother is originally from Ottawa, Ontario, while her father is from Surrey, British Columbia – both being cities in Canada.

At present, he’s a member of the Vancouver Bandits team in the Canadian Elite Basketball League, playing primarily as their center.

Standing at 6 feet 9 inches tall, James towers over Vanessa by a good 19 inches, yet since 2022, they’ve been an unbreakable Canadian pair, always together.

Last month, Vanessa shared how she was getting ready for Christmas as a new mother to two children.

Last month, Morgan shared with People that they plan to spend Christmas by visiting their partner James in Europe, an adventure they find thrilling and enjoyable.

I’ve had the pleasure of witnessing Europe during Christmastime and its charming small towns; since I deeply cherish Christmas and the holiday season, I can’t wait to share this magical experience with them while we’re abroad.

This year, the pair intends to reenact their newly cherished holiday custom for their kids as well.

She described that it was around last year when we initiated the tradition involving James. In this, the children are awakened, and holiday wrapping paper is placed over the doorway or hallway leading to the living room, keeping them from peeking at the Christmas tree before the big day.

She mentioned that it’s as if, upon waking, they remove the covering from the presents to find themselves in the room decorated with a Christmas tree.
