Elizabeth Olsen and Robbie Arnett's Relationship Timeline

Elizabeth Olsen and husband Robbie Arnett don't like to show off their romance - in fact, the couple have taken serious steps over the years to stay out of the public eye.

Speaking with Harper's Bazaar in 2018, the WandaVision actress, who doesn't have a social media presence, explained that when she did use the apps, she never felt comfortable with personal posts. "Every day I think I should delete it," she told the outlet."I find myself putting something private up there and I think, ‘This is stupid, why did I do that? I should delete it immediately.'"

Olsen stayed true to that idea when it came to her relationship with indie pop musician Arnett, as the pair have remained relatively quiet about the timeline of their romance since first meeting in 2017 while vacationing in Mexico.

Olsen reportedly moved pretty fast with the Milo Greene musician, as they were instantly taken with each other, taking their relationship public in August 2017.

The couple waited a few months before going public with their partnership. In August that year, while speaking with radio show host Sway for his morning show, the Ingrid Goes West actress proudly stated, "My boyfriend's in a cool band called Milo Greene!" When Sway asked, "Did you just shamelessly plug your boyfriend's bang?" she replied, "Yes I did, because I really like ‘em and I really like him."

Olsen and Arnett were officially engaged by July 2019, quietly tying the knot the next year.

Late 2020



The couple took an arguably more serious step in their partnership before marriage: enduring COVID lockdown together. In an August essay for The Hollywood Reporter, Olsen explained that she was "growing and harvesting my own produce" and that she and Arnett hired a landscaper to make her "lifelong dream" as a gardener a reality.

"Looking back now on the past five months or so," she wrote, "my experience gardening has truly ebbed and flowed with my own emotional processing of the lockdown."

June 2022



The Wind River actress confirmed to Jess Cagle for his SiriusXM show that she and Arnett secretly eloped and subsequently had a small wedding during COVID. Olsen shared that the timing actually worked out in the couple's favor. "I had to work in England and there are visa issues with that," she told Cagle and co-host Julia Cunningham.

"He wouldn't have been able to come at all actually. And also everything was so backed up. You couldn't even like try to get married then. But it ended up working out."
