Michael Rubin and Camille Fishel are engaged after nearly a decade together. The Fanatics CEO proposed during Fishel’s 36th birthday celebration on Thursday, November 12, with their daughters present. A beachside fireworks display helped mark the occasion, and friends and public figures soon filled social media with congratulations.
Rubin shared the news in a brief Instagram caption addressed to Fishel: “Happy bday and a little more @camillefishel.” The message included heart, wink and ring emojis, hinting at the surprise without spelling it out.
Fishel posted photos from the celebration, including a look at her engagement ring. Their daughters held signs reading, “Will you marry me?” In her caption, Fishel reflected on the length of their relationship and their family: “two babies, a ring and a decade (late, lol) & we’re finally making it official.”
The announcement drew warm reactions from people in the couple’s social circle. Grammy-nominated singer Ciara, who is married to NFL quarterback Russell Wilson, wrote, “The sweetest! Sooooo happy for you guys!” Model Ashley Graham also congratulated them, while Jordyn Woods celebrated the news with an enthusiastic message. Camilla McConaughey, Matthew McConaughey’s wife, called the moment beautiful, and model Winnie Harlow praised Fishel’s caption.
Other commenters shared their congratulations, celebrating the couple and their daughters. The family-focused proposal, with the children taking part, was a particularly personal way to mark the next step in Rubin and Fishel’s relationship.
## A decade together and a growing family
Rubin and Fishel have been together since 2016. They share two daughters, Romi, 6, and Gema, 4. Rubin also has an older daughter, Kylie, 20, from his previous marriage to Meegan Spector. Rubin and Spector were married from 2005 to 2012.
Family life has often featured in Rubin’s public posts. He has shared moments with his daughters, including a photo that Romi joined unexpectedly. He joked that he and Kylie had thought they were the life of the party until Romi appeared.
Fishel has also spoken about the children in interviews. Recalling a conversation with Romi when she was younger, she said her daughter was discussing what she might want to do when she grew up. Romi said she wanted “to work in an office like daddy.”
## Rubin’s career and high-profile circle
Rubin is the founder and CEO of Fanatics, a major licensed sports merchandise company that works with hundreds of leagues and teams. Over the years, he has become a prominent figure in the sports business world and built Fanatics into one of its best-known companies.
He was also a minority owner of the Philadelphia 76ers and the New Jersey Devils. Rubin sold his stakes in both teams in 2022 as Fanatics expanded into areas including betting and athlete partnerships.
His friendships and business relationships span sports and entertainment. Tom Brady is among his close friends and business partners, while Ciara and Wilson are also part of his wider circle. The couple attended Rubin’s White Party in the Hamptons in July, a Fourth of July gathering known for bringing together athletes, musicians and actors dressed in white.
Fishel has her own creative and professional pursuits. She is an artist and has appeared as a cover star for *Haute Living*. The magazine honored her at a Hamptons event last summer, where Rubin and Wilson were among the guests. Fishel has spoken about how important art has become to her alongside raising her daughters.
The engagement brings a new milestone for Rubin and Fishel after years together and a family life they have shared publicly in glimpses. With their daughters involved in the proposal and friends celebrating the news, the birthday gathering became a memorable occasion for the whole family.
