Margaret Qualley Reveals Cute Story Behind Jack Antonoff's Proposal and Sweet Detail from Their 2023 Wedding

Margaret Qualley is giving some insight into her romance with Jack Antonoff and the moment he popped the question!

Speaking with U.K. newspaper The Sunday Times about her latest film The Substance, the 29-year-old actress also detailed her May 2022 engagement to the producer, sharing that Antonoff got down on one knee during the filming of her new movie, though not without a few hilarious mishaps.

“I was so excited that I tackled him and he cut his knee, and I flipped over a chair, but it was cute,” Qualley revealed of the proposal, which the couple then toasted at the Ritz in Paris over champagne. The interview, which was published on Sept. 15, also noted that she wrote in her journal that she'd marry the Bleachers frontman, 40, the day they met.

The duo subsequently tied the knot in New Jersey in August 2023 during a ceremony that included a long list of famous attendees including Qualley's mom Andie MacDowell, Taylor Swift, Channing Tatum, Zoë Kravitz, Lana Del Rey and Cara Delevingne.

Qualley also shared a sweet anecdote from her nuptials with The Sunday Times, revealing that during the ceremony, her sister Rainey performed a rendition of Etta James' 1960 classic "At Last."

“She’s confident in that regard. She was also drunk,” Qualley teased.

After meeting her husband at a New York party in 2021, Qualley is now sharing that she feels lucky to have "found him" when she did. “I have a lot of 40-year-old single girlfriends that are just like, ‘Helloooo, what the f---? Everyone’s terrible!’ " she said in the The Sunday Times interview.

Qualley also told the outlet that she's looking forward to a future with children. “I’d be thrilled with two. I want one and then I want the other one to have a friend,” she said. “My brother and sister are my best friends, so I can’t imagine not having that.”

Earlier this week, Qualley and Antonoff stepped out together at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards on Wednesday, Sept. 11 at Long Island's UBS Arena.

The outing came complete with coordinating looks, including Antonoff's burnt orange button-down and black pants and Qualley's black velvet dress. The duo sat next to pal Swift during the ceremony, as Antonoff was there for his contributions to the pop superstar's latest album, The Tortured Poets Department.

For Qualley's latest film — which premiered on Sept. 5 at the Toronto International Film Festival — she stars alongside Demi Moore in a story about Moore's character Elisabeth Sparkle trying a black market drug to create a younger version of herself. Touching on themes including body image and societal expectations for women, The Substance took home the best screenplay award at the Cannes Film Festival in May.

Moore, 61, opened up to The Guardian on Sept. 14 about the topics explored in the film, directed by Coralie Fargeat, and how audiences can relate to her character.

“Self-judgment, chasing perfection, trying to rid ourselves of ‘flaws’, also feeling rejected and despair, none of this is exclusive to women," she said, before referencing a scene in the film where her character, Elisabeth Sparkle, looks for her flaws in the mirror.

“We’ve all had moments where you go back and you’re trying to fix something, and you’re just making it worse to the point where you’re incapacitated," she said. "We’re seeing these small things nobody else is looking at, but we’re so hyper-focused on all that we’re not. All of us, if we start to think our value is only with how we look then ultimately we’re going to be crushed.”
