Are those wedding bells we hear?

DJ Qualls and Ty Olsson are now engaged and everyone can't help but gush over the pair.

On an episode of his Locked and Probably Loaded podcast last week, Qualls opened up about the big news with Kelly Blackheart after the couple initially met on the show Supernatural.

While they first started as friends, they built a strong bond over the years they spent working together and eventually, it turned into something more romantic.

"Ty and I became inseparable at the very beginning, just immediately,” Qualls, who played werewolf Garth on the popular series, shared on the May 15 episode. “And over the last 10 years our relationship evolved to what it is today, and now we’re getting married."

The actor went on to recall how he first met his now fiancé, stating that all it took was a trip to Turkey.


"[We] didn’t know each other at all," he revealed. “We maybe said three words together at the Supernatural convention, and then we went to London for four or five days afterward.

“And then I was going to Turkey with a friend and he is such a pure, awesome guy. He came up to us - we all went out as a group - and he was like, 'Can I come on your trip with you?'" the Z Nation actor continued.

"And I’m like, 'That is so ballsy!' I could never invite myself on somebody’s trip cause I’d be afraid they would begrudgingly tell me yes and then not want me there. But it was just so pure and awesome, and that’s who he is," he said. "I didn’t know him. And it was the beginning of our friendship."


The 45-year-old went on to state that he thinks Olsson is a "wonderful" person.

"It’s just so crazy that this person who was just my friend, now I think about all the time and he sends the best messages, and he supports me and loves me unconditionally in the right way," Qualls opened up, noting that his partner gave him the "respect" he needs to feel that "unconditional love."

“Ty was the first person in my entire life, my entire life that [I] ever had that with,” he added. “I say just a friend. [He is] the best friend I ever had, and now we’re going to be old men together, which is so crazy."

The news sent fans into a frenzy after a clip from the podcast episode was re-posted to Instagram.

"'We're gonna be old men together' I'm sobbing... so freaking happy for y'all. Sending so much love and good wishes. Congratulations!!!!" wrote one excited user while another added: "This is the purest & sweetest video... congratulations to you both. My heart is so happy for you!"

A third also referenced the pair's characters from the show in their comment stating: "Vampire and [werewolf] forbidden love, I’m so happy for you guys!"

We're so happy to hear the good news and we wish the couple all the best for their future together!
