J.R. Ramirez, best known for his role as Detective Jared Vasquez on the NBC and Netflix series Manifest, has announced his engagement to content creator and actress Bonnie Leathers. The couple shared the news on Instagram on November 10, 2025, with photos from a beach in Culebra, Puerto Rico. Ramirez described Leathers as his “best friend” in the post, while Leathers responded with excitement, calling herself “blessed to be your future wife.” Fans and fellow celebrities quickly congratulated the pair.

A second photo features the couple smiling together. While it’s unclear how long they’ve been together, the couple has occasionally shared moments on social media, including trips to Paris in December 2024 and jazz nights earlier this year.
