During an appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers, the actress revealed that she and Jack had gotten engaged in December 2023.

The actor and comedian, playfully calling herself “kind of a detective,” shared how events unfolded when Cecily Strong’s fiancé, Jack, was orchestrating his proposal during her appearance on Wednesday’s episode of “Late Night with Seth Meyers.”

We were discussing the possibility of getting married when suddenly he exclaimed, "Look at this; I'm so inundated with emails and texts." This was according to Strong.
"How did it go?" asked a friend's text that appeared on Strong's screen as she examined what Jack was showing her on his phone. The red flag: a ring emoji was used to punctuate the text.
“And then I was like, oh... oh no," she exclaimed while giggling.

She claimed that she informed her now-fiancé that his choice of proposal date would be a surprise since Jack's plan was already public knowledge.

In an essay published for Vulture from her memoir, "This Will All Be Over Soon", the actress explains how she met Jack. She stated:

I talk to the man with the moustache. He's very cute. I have social anxiety, and I'm drunk and tired, so I have no idea what we talk about. He comes home with me.
The next morning I'm a little more shy. He is less shy. Can I give you my number? He asks. I hand him the pink-flamingo pen my psychiatrist gave me that week. I find an old receipt, and he writes 'Jack' and his phone number on the back.
