NCIS alum and ER star Maria Bello has debuted wedding rings on the red carpet with her long-time fiancé Dominique Crenn.
The couple has been engaged for years after first announcing their relationship in 2020.
Maria, 56, and celebrity chef Dominique, 59, flashed wedding rings while posing on the red carpet in New York City on Thursday.
The pair attended the Time 100 gala where they posed for photos and flaunted their jewelry.
The TV star went for a full glam look in a stunning black Zuhair Murad long-sleeved gown with intricate embroidery covering the bodice.
The top of the dress was nude, embellished with beautiful black and white sequins, reminiscent of stained glass.
Maria’s gown had a bodysuit that stopped at her hips, and from there, a tulle black skirt that flowed to the ground.
There were tiny crystals scattered across the skirt and pieces of tulle fastened at the end of each sleeve and around the neckline.
The actress stunned in full glam makeup and wore her hair slicked back into a classy bun.
Meanwhile, her fiancé Dominique flaunted her sleek style in a shiny black suit with a white button-down underneath.
She accessorized with white sneakers and black and white jewelry, wearing her hair in a tight-cropped bob with bangs.
The soon-to-be newlyweds grinned while posing for photos on the red carpet.

Maria and Dominique made sure to show their commitment to one another by flaunting their ring fingers to fans.
WEDDING BELLS
Despite wearing wedding bands, a source revealed to the Daily Mail that they have yet to tie the knot.
However, the celebrity couple noted that the nuptials are “coming soon.”
Last year, Maria told People that there were plans “firmly in place” for a spring 2024 wedding.
In 2020, the pair publicly debuted their relationship while appearing at the The Women’s Cancer Research Fund’s event, An Unforgettable Evening.
It was very surprising, but meant to be. It’s about time.

The duo hit the red carpet at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Los Angeles where they planted a kiss on each other’s lips.
That year, Maria opened up about her relationship while attending the Elton John Oscar-viewing party in Beverly Hills.
She told Entertainment Tonight at the time, “We’re pretty happy, considering we just got engaged.
“So, this is sort of our fun time out in Hollywood for the first time since we’ve been engaged.”
According to the outlet, the actress and chef got engaged while on a lavish vacation to Paris in late December 2019.
Maria told ET, “It was very surprising, but meant to be. It’s about time. I’ve finally grown up enough to get married. I think we just light each other up.”
RELATIONSHIP JOURNEY
Before her relationship with Dominique, she dated Dan McDermott from 1999 until 2006.
The exes share one child, an 18-year-old son named Jackson.
After their split, Maria dated Bryn Mooser from 2008 until 2010, before connecting with producer Clare Munn.
In 2013 she wrote a New York Times essay about love – and presumably about her relationship with Clare.
“I didn’t think of it as romantic or sexual. She was one of the most beautiful, charming, brilliant, and funny people I had ever met,” she penned.
“But it didn’t occur to me that we could perhaps choose to love each other romantically. Love is love.”
After their breakup in 2016, Maria briefly dated Elijah Allan-Blitz before meeting Dominique.
