A Timeline of Their Relationship

Madison Beer may have sang about the swell of emotions that emerged when she reached the end of an intense relationship on her latest album, Locket, but now her love life seems much rosier. The pop singer just announced her engagement to Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert.

The pair have been quietly linked to each other since August, and started to integrate their private and personal lives in the fall — from courtside date nights to nautical couples Halloween costumes. Here’s a timeline of Beer and Herbert’s romance.
