Jessie, from Disney Channel’s Jessie, is getting engaged. In a four-episode arc that will conclude the season this fall, Jessie falls for and accepts her new boyfriend’s proposal. The boyfriend Brooks, played by Pierson Fode, is 25 while Jessie, played by Debby Ryan, is 22.
This will mark the first time a lead character in a Disney Channel Original Series gets engaged. Whether they get married could depend on if the show gets renewed for a fourth season.
According to the report, Debby Ryan is not getting married in real life:
Ryan, who will turn 21 on May 13, said she is far from tying the knot with her boyfriend of a year, Twenty One Pilots musician Josh Dun. Her focus is on her career, including directing her first episode of “Jessie” this season and finishing an album she plans to release in June.
Jessie airs Fridays on Disney Channel.
