Steven Spielberg’s daughter Destry Allyn Spielberg is engaged.

The budding director, 29, said “yes” to boyfriend Jake Herskowitz after more than three years of dating. She revealed the happy news on her Instagram Stories over the weekend.

In one since-expired post, Destry shared a video of herself leaving a restaurant with Herskowitz as she showed off her engagement ring to family and friends, per Just Jared. She captioned it: “@mister_hersh Forever.”

In another snap, she offered a close-up look at the ring, made by Goldpoint Jewelry, which features a chunky gold band and large rectangular diamond. Destry also shared a photo of herself wearing an elegant black one-shoulder dress as she held up her hand to display the ring.

Another sweet shot — which she captioned simply, “Mama ❤️” — shows the bride-to-be posing with her mother, Kate Capshaw, whom Steven, 79, has been married to since 1991.

Destry and her fiancé began dating in September 2022, per a post on Herskowitz’s Instagram marking the couple’s third anniversary in September 2025.

In a 29th birthday tribute to Destry on Dec. 1, Herskowitz called his then-girlfriend “the love of my life.”

He playfully added, “Ya fun ya sexy ya the best and I love ya!”

Destry’s engagement news comes as her filmmaker father achieved EGOT status by earning a Grammy Award on Sunday, Feb. 1. He won for Best Music Film for Music by John Williams, which he produced.

Destry celebrated her dad’s achievement by resharing a news story about Steven’s EGOT and writing, “OMG.”

The bride-to-be is following in her father’s footsteps with a career in filmmaking. She made her feature-film directorial debut with 2024’s Please Don’t Feed the Children, which stars Michelle Dockery, Zoe Colletti and Giancarlo Esposito.

Last year, Destry opened up to PEOPLE about her “hard and confusing” path to directing after a back injury pivoted her away from competitive equestrianism.

“Transitioning from a life that I had as an equestrian, having an injury, having to essentially stop [and] not having a path or an idea of what you wanna do next was really hard and confusing and weird,” she shared.

After studying acting and landing a few movie roles, she and a friend decided to write a short film together “with the purpose of putting both ourselves in it, so that we could have the reel that we needed.” Destry also directed the film, describing stepping behind the camera as “a spiritual experience” that sparked her passion for directing.

“I was like, ‘I’ve never done this before.’ But once we got it all set up and we finally started shooting, it was a spiritual experience because I had stepped on set and it was like all these instincts just clicked,” she recalled. “I can’t even explain it. It was like a dream. I immediately felt so passionate about this role as a director and just had all these instincts that were flowing out of me and all these ideas.”
