In one of her photos, Thorne flashed the diamond engagement ring that her fiance Mark Emms gave her when he proposed in May 2023 after nine months of dating.
Thorne made headlines last August when she proposed to Emms a year after the British producer first popped the question. The actress shared a video of the intimate moment, which took place in their living room as the two were surrounded by candles, flowers and heart-shaped balloons.
Fans were divided over Thorne's proposal to Emms, with some praising the move as "cute" and an example of "girl power," while others questioned the gesture, asking, "Why propose again?" and urging, "Let’s not normalize this."

Thorne later acknowledged the mixed reaction, saying the response was "totally split down the middle," with supporters cheering her on and critics pushing back on the unconventional moment.
In December 2025, Thorne revealed that she and Emms were postponing their wedding planning until after they wrapped up their current work commitments.

"We had gone through so much in a really beautiful way and a lot of dark times as well," she said. "Creating art is really hard. It is so difficult. At some point, right before filming, I wanted to return the love that he had given me when he proposed and make it equal. He was crying. It was so sweet and endearing and authentic."
"It's so shocking and it's so not done that when it does happen, they feel so honored, like 'You chose me?' and you're like, 'Yeah. You chose me and I choose you. This is a two-way street.'"
