Kristen Stewart and Dylan Meyer started dating in 2019 and got engaged in 2021
Though she’s been working in Hollywood for years, Dylan Meyer wasn’t thrown into the spotlight until 2019 when she began dating Twilight actress Kristen Stewart.
The daughter of Oscar-nominated screenwriter Nicholas Meyer, Meyer has racked up numerous professional credits both as a writer and actress, most recently having worked on the screenplay for Amy Poehler’s 2021 coming-of-age Netflix film, Moxie.
Meyer first met Stewart on a movie set in 2013 and the pair reconnected years later through a mutual friend, sparking a whirlwind romance.
“The day that I met her, it was like all bets were off,” Stewart said during an appearance on The Howard Stern Show in November 2019.
In a February 2024 interview with Rolling Stone, Stewart explained why Meyer is the one for her.
“I found the right person because I can be so obsessive about what I do. And luckily my girlfriend, my partner, we are into the same s—” she said. “We have taken the things that we’re spending our time on and interlocked them, and we’re so much f—— smarter and stronger together. And you’re just like, ‘F—, that is the best.’ ”
So who is Kristen Stewart’s fiancée? From Instagram tributes to getting engaged, here’s everything to know about Dylan Meyer and her relationship with the actress.
Following in the footsteps of her screenwriter father, Meyer works as a film and television writer.
Meyer has writing credits on films such as 2015’s Loose Ends and 2016’s XOXO, which stars Modern Family’s Sarah Hyland. She also worked on eight episodes of the comedy series Miss 2059 from 2017 to 2018. Most recently, Meyer (along with Tamara Chestna), wrote the screenplay for Amy Poehler’s 2021 coming-of-age film, Moxie.
While she is primarily a screenwriter, Meyer also has experience in front of the camera. Her acting credits include the short films The Death and Return of Superman, Wrestling Isn’t Wrestling and Jem Reacts to the New Jem and the Holograms Trailer, as well as an episode of the TV series Homemade, in which she appeared alongside Stewart.
In May 2023, Meyer joined the ongoing Writers Guild of America strike.
“You may not know this but we (the writers) have struck because The Man is trying to get us down,” she wrote on Instagram. “Without writers, your movies and tv shows will suck. Trust. Our fight for fair wages is so important we’ve been forced to walk around and wave signs about it – and we need your support! If you love stories tell the studios to value the storytellers!”
She first met Stewart in 2013
Though they didn’t begin a romantic relationship until years later, Stewart met Meyer on the set of a movie in 2013.
During an appearance on The Howard Stern Show in November 2019, Stewart explained that she and Meyer first crossed paths on set and later reconnected through a mutual friend.
“I met her years ago on a movie and I hadn’t seen her in six years, and then she rocked up at a friend’s birthday party, and I was like, ‘Where have you been, and how have I not known you?’ She’s been living in L.A. alongside my life somehow but not ever converging,” Stewart said.
And as it turned out, the two had a lot in common. “We’re both from L.A. and we really love L.A.,” Stewart explained. “We both felt like trolls as kids. We’re like so similar but different. She’s a writer. She’s brilliant.”

She proposed to Stewart
In an interview with Howard Stern on Nov. 2, 2021, Stewart revealed that she and Meyer were engaged, and that the screenwriter was the one to propose.
“It’s not a given that I would be the one, you know what I mean? Like, with two girls, you never know, like, who’s going to fulfill what weird f—ing gender role thing and we don’t do that or think about it in those terms,” Stewart said.
She continued: “So I was like, ‘Wait, well, I’m not the one for sure.’ And so I was kind of joking for a bit, like, ‘No, I want to be the one to propose, like, I want to be proposed to’ and then she just grabbed that bowl and made it happen. It was f—ing so cute.”
Stewart didn’t share the details about the actual proposal, but she told Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show that Meyer “knocked it out of the park.”
She and Stewart are planning their future together
In her February 2024 cover story for Rolling Stone, Stewart opened up about her plans to start a family with Meyer in the near future. As both were busy filming their passion projects, Stewart said they didn’t have it in them to have a big wedding, so they planned to simply tie the knot “soon.”
As for children, Stewart is excited to have them. However, she said while she’s not scared of being a mom, she is nervous about childbirth.
“I don’t know what my family’s going to look like, but there’s no fucking way that I don’t start acquiring kids,” she said. “And also, ideall
