According to People magazine, it is likely that the couple's engagement just happened recently, considering that the 30-year-old actor just attended the Los Angeles premiere of his new FX show, "The Assassination of Gianni Versace," on Jan. 8, and at the time, Swier didn't have a band on her ring finger.
While Criss himself is an actor portraying big roles on the screen, Swier is more involved on the production side of things, having worked as a writer and producer for various networks such as Fox and Showtime. More than that, the soon-to-be-Mrs. Criss also attended New York University's Steinhardt School of Media Studies and Television Production.
For Darren Criss, it's looking like 2018 is becoming a great year for him because, besides getting engaged, his new show "The Assassination of Gianni Versace" is also getting tremendous reviews and ratings.
In the show, Criss portrays the role of Andrew Cunanan, the guy who murdered the renowned fashion designer, Gianni Versace. The show is a reunion for him and Ryan Murphy who also executively produced the show that launched him to fame, "Glee."
