In addition, the actress from Blue Crush mentioned that they had recently faced a difficult situation and sought guidance from a therapist.
“At that time, we were actively working through our challenges, and the therapist offered us valuable advice,” she explained. “She advised us to make a conscious effort to regularly ask each other about our needs and desires.”
Bosworth went on to share, “I recall waking up on several mornings after that therapy session, and as I looked at Justin, I greeted him with a smile and asked, ‘What do you need?'”
She continued, “He looked at me intently and responded, ‘To spend my life with you.'”
Smiling, she recollected their exchange, saying, “‘Well, of course, you have that. Oh my goodness, you already have that,’ to which he earnestly replied, ‘No, I mean I genuinely want to spend my life with you.'”
Long expressed, “The words just flowed out effortlessly, it was the easiest thing to say.”
The couple’s initial connection dates back to March 2022, and they made their first appearance on Instagram in May.
Long shared a series of selfies featuring Bosworth enjoying a pint of Guinness, and she commented, “I’m the luckiest. 🍀✨😘”
