Karl‑Anthony Towns and Jordyn Woods just turned Christmas Day into a moment they’ll never forget. The couple announced their engagement on December 25, sharing the news through a joint Instagram post with a caption that was equal parts festive and clever: “Marry Christmas.”
The announcement immediately lit up social media, with fans, friends, and fellow celebrities flooding the comments with love.
Their engagement photos captured the moment from a Manhattan rooftop, the skyline glowing behind them. Woods, dressed in all white, stood beside Towns in a scene that felt polished yet deeply personal — intimate without trying, elegant without the spectacle.
For Towns, the day carried double meaning. Earlier that afternoon, he helped lead the New York Knicks to a hard‑earned Christmas Day win over the Cleveland Cavaliers. Hours later, he closed out the night with a life‑changing “yes.”
Towns and Woods’ relationship has been built on steady growth and real connection. After becoming friends first, they went public as a couple in 2020 — choosing to build their bond away from the noise. Both have also navigated profound loss: Towns losing his mother, Jacqueline Cruz‑Towns, in 2020, and Woods losing her father, John Woods, in 2017. Through grief, healing, and rebuilding, they’ve leaned on each other with intention.
Their engagement reflects that shared journey. No theatrics. No over‑the‑top production. Just two people choosing each other with clarity and confidence.
For Towns and Woods, Christmas 2025 now marks the start of a new chapter — one shaped by patience, resilience, and a love that grew quietly before stepping into the spotlight.
