Jason Segel's new fiancee Kayla Radomski flashes giant engagement ring in first sighting since proposal
The movie star, 45, and the professional dancer, 34, looked loved up as they enjoyed a casual stroll in Los Angeles.
Kayla proudly flaunted her stunning diamond engagement ring during their outing while rocking a casual look of a brown shirt with jeans.
Their sighting comes after DailyMail.com exclusively reported that he officially popped the question to her at The Huntington Library in Pasadena on Monday evening.
Kayla confirmed the news on Tuesday morning with a carousel of images from their engagement to her Instagram page.
For their engagement at Huntington Library on Monday, Kayla wore a fringed black dress with her hair loose around her in waves.
Jason was pictured down on one knee for the proposal, wearing a black suit and tie with a white button up top.
She shared a series of snaps from the special moment, adding the simple caption: 'Forever yes,' with an engagement ring and heart emoji.
A source told DailyMail.com: 'The proposal occurred in the Huntington Library's rose garden, and was captured by a photographer hired by the actor.'
Radomski said 'yes' to Segel and 'the teary-eyed couple enjoyed a private dinner together in the Huntington Library's rose garden' afterwards.
Both Jason and Kayla also took time to express their gratitude towards employees who had helped set up for the big moment.
The lovebirds were first romantically linked in October 2023 when they were spotted during Hollywood Horror Nights at Universal Studios.

At the time, the pair were seen holding hands as they strolled through the crowded amusement park.
They made their red carpet debut together last year during awards season.
In early 2024, Segel and Radomski made their red carpet debut at the Golden Globe Awards as she cheered on the actor who was nominated for his role in Shrinking.
The two cozied up together at the event as they paused for a brief photo session before the main ceremony kicked off.
At the time, the actress had also jumped to her main Instagram page to share snaps from the night - and also penned a sweet tribute to Segel.
'WOW..... @jasonsegel I am so incredibly proud of you!!!! What a dream. You are absolutely one of the hardest working and most deserving humans on this planet. My Golden Globe Nominee!'
She added, 'I love that we got to spend a whole day celebrating YOU and your talent!!! I love you so much baby!'
The same month, the couple walked the red carpet once again as they made an appearance at the 2024 Emmys.
Despite their few red carpet appearances, Segel and Radomski mainly keep their romance out of the spotlight.

Female UFC star left humiliated with head in hands after official drops her intimate item at weigh in
UFC star Angela Hill couldn't help but laugh after an official dropped her bra inserts during her fight weigh-in. Hill, 40, weighed in at 116 pounds as she stepped on the scale ahead of her fight with Iasmin Lucindo on Saturday night. 6 6 6 6 Before stepping on the scale, Hill removed two inserts from her bra and handed them to the official in order to not have them included in her weight. The weight official seemingly didn't know what to do and began searching for somewhere suitable to rest the inserts down. He landed on putting them on top of the scale podium but saw one of them fall off and onto the floor. The awkward moment left Hill with her head in her hands and trying to hold back a fit of laughter. Her reaction earned her plenty of plaudits online, with one fan writing: "She was dope for doing that, scored points with me on personality." And another adding: "She handled that with as much class as could be possible in that situation. I am now a big fan." Hill was unable to put up a victory for her newfound fans as she ultimately fell to a unanimous decision defeat to Lucindo on Saturday evening. The loss means that Hill now has an 18-15-0 record. Opponent Lucindo, 23, had labelled the fight as "crazy" beforehand, claiming Hill was almost as old as her mother. She said: "It is crazy. I won't lie to you, it is very crazy. It's something that makes me go like, 'My God, she's almost my mother's age.' My mother is 43. 'That was f---ing weird' - Moment female bare knuckle fighter KISSES opponent on lips in awkward face-off 'But I respect Angela a lot. Before I was in the UFC, before I was fighting, she was already fighting, she was already building her story. "I've watched Angela fight many times before I was in the UFC, and I know the athlete she is and the story she has built. I'm very happy. "Imagine watching someone and then you're fighting her. That's a great accomplishment". 6 6

Inside Disneyland when it first opened 70 years ago - and tickets only cost £9
Cartoon alchemist Walt Disney first introduced the world to theme parks when he opened the doors to Disneyland on a former orange grove that spanned 160 acres in Anaheim, California. The date was July 17, 1955, and a ticket to enter cost just a dollar (50 cents for children), the equivalent of around $12 (£8.92) today - although the park operated a pay as you ride system, with prices costing 23 cents for adults and 10 cents for kids. Disney fans today can take their pick from six resorts - two in the US, one in Europe and three in Asia, with a brand new park set to open in Abu Dhabi in the 'early 2030s' - but what did the very first incarnation of Walt Disney's vision look like? The opening day wasn't a success by all accounts, and became known as 'Black Sunday' by Disney employees because of the number of disasters that unfolded. It was so hot under the Californian sun that the asphalt melted under visitors' feet, the drinking fountains didn't work and several rides malfunctioned. Disneyland estimated around 20,000 people would attend on its first day and tickets were sent out on an invitation-only basis. However, bootleg tickets meant around 35,000 attended and many more crowded the park's entrance too. Eventually though, Walt and his first team of magic makers - now known as the Disney Imagineers - honed their theme park formula for fun. Two decades later, the brand's flagship attraction, Walt Disney World, now the world's most visited theme park, opened its doors in Orlando in the rest, as they say, is history. Here's what visitors arriving at the park on that very first day in the mid Fifties enjoyed... Popular: Around 35,000 people - thousands more than anticipated - arrived on the opening day of the park, with various disasters leading to the first day being dubbed 'Black Sunday' Taking centre stage: Walt Disney rides with two children in a horse-drawn carriage as they pass the Frontier Trading Post on the opening day

Digital resurrection: fascination and fear over the rise of the deathbot
Rod Stewart had a few surprise guests at a recent concert in Charlotte, North Carolina. His old friend Ozzy Osbourne, the lead singer of Black Sabbath who died last month, was apparently beamed in from some kind of rock heaven, where he was reunited with other departed stars including Michael Jackson, Tina Turner and Bob Marley. The AI-generated images divided Stewart's fans. Some denounced them as disrespectful and distasteful; others found the tribute beautiful. At about the same time, another AI controversy erupted when Jim Acosta, a former CNN White House correspondent, interviewed a digital recreation of Joaquin Oliver, who was killed at the age of 17 in a 2018 high school shooting in Florida. The avatar of the teenager was created by his parents, who said it was a blessing to hear his voice again. In June, Alexis Ohanian, a co-founder of Reddit, posted on X an animation of his late mother hugging him when he was a child, created from a photograph. 'Damn, I wasn't ready for how this would feel. We didn't have a camcorder, so there's no video of me with my mom … This is how she hugged me. I've rewatched it 50 times,' he wrote. These are just three illustrations of a growing phenomenon of 'digital resurrection' – creating images and bots of people who have died using photographs, videos, voice messages and other material. Companies offering to create 'griefbots' or 'deathbots' abound, and questions about exploitation, privacy and their impact on the grieving process are multiplying. 'It's vastly more technologically possible now because of large language models such as ChatGPT being easily available to the general public and very straightforward to use,' said Elaine Kasket, a London-based cyberpsychologist. 'And these large language models enable the creation of something that feels really plausible and realistic. When someone dies, if there are enough digital remains – texts, emails, voice notes, images – it's possible to create something that feels very recognisable.' Only a few years ago, the idea of 'virtual immortality' was futuristic, a techno-dream beyond the reach of ordinary people. Now, interactive avatars can be created relatively easily and cheaply, and demand looks set to grow. A poll commissioned by the Christian thinktank Theos and carried out by YouGov in 2023 found that 14% of respondents agreed they would find comfort in interacting with a digital version of a loved one who had died. The younger the respondent, the more likely they were to be open to the idea of a deathbot. The desire to preserve connections with dead loved ones is not new. In the past, bereaved people have retained precious personal items that help them feel close to the person they have lost. People pore over photos, watch videos, replay voice messages and listen to music that reminds them of the person. They often dream of the dead, or imagine they glimpse them across a room or in the street. A few even seek contact via seances. 'Human beings have been trying to relate to the dead ever since there were humans,' said Michael Cholbi, a professor of philosophy at the University of Edinburgh and the author of Grief: A Philosophical Guide. 'We have created monuments and memorials, preserved locks of hair, reread letters. Now the question is: does AI have anything to add?' Louise Richardson, of York university's philosophy department and a co-investigator on a four-year project on grief, said bereaved people often sought to 'maintain a sense of connection and closeness' with a dead loved one by visiting their grave, talking to them or touching items that belonged to them. 'Deathbots can serve the same purpose, but they can also be disruptive to the grieving process,' she said. 'They can get in the way of recognising and accommodating what has been lost, because you can interact with a deathbot in an ongoing way.' For example, people often wonder what a dead loved one might have done or said in a specific situation. 'Now it feels like you are able to ask them.' But deathbots may also provide 'sanitised, rosy' representations of a person, said Cholbi. For example, someone creating a deathbot of their late granny may choose not to include her casual racism or other unappealing aspects of her personality in material fed into an AI generator. There is also a risk of creating a dependency in the living person, said Nathan Mladin, the author of AI and the Afterlife, a Theos report published last year. 'Digital necromancy is a deceptive experience. You think you're talking to a person when you're actually talking to a machine. Bereaved people can become dependent on a bot, rather than accepting and healing.' The boom in digital clones of the dead began in the far east. In China, it can cost as little as 20 yuan (£2.20) to create a digital avatar of a loved one, but according to one estimate the market was worth 12bn yuan (£1.2bn) in 2022 and was expected to quadruple by 2025. More advanced, interactive avatars that move and converse with a client can cost thousands of pounds. Fu Shou Yuan International Group, a major funeral operator, has said it is 'possible for the dead to 'come back to life' in the virtual world'. According to the China Funeral Association, the cost is about 50,000 yuan per deceased person. The exploitation of grief for private profit is a risk, according to Cholbi, although he pointed to a long history of mis-selling and upselling in the funeral business. Kasket said another pitfall was privacy and rights to digital remains. 'A person who's dead has no opportunity to consent, no right of reply and no control.' The fraudulent use of digital material to create convincing avatars for financial gain was another concern, she added. Some people have already begun stipulating in their wills that they do not want their digital material to be used after their death. Interactive avatars are not just for the dead. Abba Voyage, a show that features digital versions of the four members of the Swedish pop group performing in their heyday, has been a runaway success, making about £1.6m each week. Audiences thrill – and sing along – to the exhilarating experience while the band's members, now aged between 75 and 80, put their feet up at home. More soberly, the UK's National Holocaust Centre and Museum launched a project in 2016 to capture the voices and images of Holocaust survivors to create interactive avatars capable of answering questions about their experiences in the Nazi death camps long into the future. According to Cholbi, there is an element of 'AI hype' around deathbots. 'I don't doubt that some people are interested in this, and I think it could have some interesting therapeutic applications. It could be something that people haul out periodically – I can imagine they bring out the posthumous avatar of a deceased relative at Christmas dinner or on their birthday. 'But I doubt that people will try to sustain their relationships with the dead through this technology for very long. At some point, I think most of us reconcile ourselves with the fact of death, the fact that the person is dead. 'This isn't to say that some people might really dive into this, but it does seem to be a case where maybe the prospects are not as promising as some of the commercial investors might hope.' For Mladin, the deathbot industry raises profound questions for ethicists and theologians. The interest in digital resurrection may be a consequence of 'traditional religious belief fading, but those deeper longings for transcendence, for life after death, for the permanence of love are redirected towards technological solutions,' he said. 'This is an expression of peak modernity, a belief that technology will conquer death and will give us life everlasting. It's symptomatic of the kind of culture we inhabit now.' Kasket said: 'There's no question in my mind that some people create these kinds of phenomena and utilise them in ways that they find helpful. But what I'm concerned about is the way various services selling these kinds of things are pathologising grief. 'If we lose the ability to cope with grief, or convince ourselves that we're unable to deal with it, we are rendered truly psychologically brittle. It is not a pathology or a disease or a problem for technology to solve. Grief and loss are part of normal human experience.'
