Ruby Rose's fiancée Phoebe Dahl talks wedding: 'I want a big one'

Orange Is the New Black actress Ruby Rose has been heating up Hollywood quickly becoming the newest "it" girl, but her fashion designer fiancée Phoebe Dahl reveals that being in the spotlight won't change their relationship.

“I know our lives will change a little bit but we’re both very modest and humble so I don’t think it’ll affect us too much," she told our sister publication in the UK, HELLO! Fashion Monthly. "If anything, we’ll be able to use the spotlight to shed light on greater world issues. I know Ruby will use it to touch on LGBT issues and hopefully I’ll be able to promote my causes, which are sex trafficking, girls’ education and women’s empowerment.”

And Ruby's sudden thrust in the spotlight isn't the only whirlwind thing to happen to the twosome. In the candid interview for the magazine's September issue, the granddaughter of legendary Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory author Roald Dahl admitted her romance with the actress happened quickly as well. “Do I believe in love at first sight? I didn’t before Ruby but now I do," Phoebe added. "I have to! It happened to me – I met Ruby at a barbecue I threw a year and a half ago and we got engaged within about three months. It was all very instant...Honestly, we’re not really apart that often.”

While love and work seem to be going well for the couple, their success has unfortunately put their wedding on the back burner. We’re enjoying being engaged," notes the Faircloth & Supply owner. "Ruby wants a low-key wedding but I want a big one. I’m from a family of 50 so it’s going to have to be big. I don’t know how anyone has time to plan a wedding, we’re both so focused on our careers right now.”
