Tanner Buchanan and Mary Mouser have confirmed their engagement following the finale of the “Cobra Kai” series. They described the moment as “the closing of one chapter and celebrating the continuation of another.” The stars, known for their roles in the Netflix hit, went public with their relationship during the red-carpet event for Season Six, Part Three’s premiere on February 12. Their appearance at this Los Angeles celebration served as not only a public debut of their romance but also an engagement announcement, marked by their proudly displayed matching rings. Netflix wasted no time in confirming the joyous news on their X account on February 13, coinciding with the release of the final episodes of the “Karate Kid” spin-off. “COBRA CRYING BECAUSE TANNER BUCHANAN & MARY MOUSER ARE ENGAGED,” tweeted Netflix with excitement.
On the same day, Buchanan and Mouser took to Instagram to share their first public comments on the engagement. “We’re so happy to finally share that we’re engaged,” the couple expressed in their post. They described this time as “such a special moment in our lives” and acknowledged “the closing of one chapter and celebrating the continuation of another.” Grateful for the outpouring of love and support, they affirmed their preference for privacy, yet embraced the opportunity to let fans glimpse into their world.
Throughout the years, Buchanan and Mouser have often been seen together at various events, such as a notable Taylor Swift concert in 2023. However, until now, they had not publicly addressed the speculation surrounding their relationship. In “Cobra Kai,” Mouser portrays Sam, a young karate talent and daughter of Daniel LaRusso, played by Ralph Macchio. Buchanan takes on the role of Robby, the offspring of Johnny Lawrence, Daniel’s fierce rival, portrayed by William Zabka. Initially, their characters shared a romantic storyline, but Sam eventually reconnects with her first love, Miguel, while Robby pairs up with Tory, played by Peyton List.
Interestingly, Buchanan and Mouser are not the only cast members of “Cobra Kai,” which began in 2018, to find love on set. Jacob Bertrand, who plays the vibrant character Hawk, has been in a relationship with Peyton List since at least 2022. This brings an added dimension of real-life romance to the dynamic cast of the beloved series.
