Elizabeth Olsen, known for playing Scarlet Witch in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and musician Robbie Arnett of the band Milo Greene have kept their relationship almost entirely out of the spotlight since meeting in Mexico in 2017. According to the source report, the couple married quietly during the COVID-19 pandemic, primarily to resolve visa issues that would have prevented Arnett from joining Olsen during her work in England. Their story, marked by a cautious approach to public disclosure, offers a rare model of celebrity partnership in an era of constant social media exposure.

A chance meeting in Mexico in 2017

The report traces the couple's first encounter to a vacation in Mexico in 2017. An unnamed insider told the source that the connection was immediate, saying, “It’s very new, but they seem to like each other a lot already.” Olsen and Arnett kept their relationship under wraps for months before she referenced him publicly. In an August 2017 radio interview, she called Arnett's band “a cool band” and admitted, “Yes I did [plug him], because I really like them and I really like him.” That rare public nod, according to the source, was the beginning of a deliberately low-key commitment.

The emerald ring spotted at a grocery store

Within a year of meeting, the couple moved in together. Olsen, in a joint interview, grinned and said, “That’s my plan!” The engagement became public when Olsen was photographed wearing a ring with an emerald stone surrounded by tiny diamonds while grocery shopping in Los Angeles. The source notes that such incidental sightings became the primary way the public learned of their milestones—a pattern that continued with their marriage.

Why a visa forced a COVID elopement

The pandemic accelerated their wedding plans. In a SiriusXM interview cited by the source, Olsen explained the practical reason: “I had to work in England and there are visa issues with that. 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.” The couple secretly eloped and later held a small wedding. This detail highlights how logistical considerations, not just romance, shaped their timeline. The report does not specify which visa category applied, leaving that as an open question.

Gardening as an escape from Hollywood

Olsen wrote an essay during lockdown about growing produce and hiring a landscaper to fulfill a lifelong dream of gardening. She reflected, “Looking back now on the past five months or so, my experience gardening has truly ebbed and flowed with my own emotional processing of the lockdown.” The source portrays this shared hobby as a cornerstone of their relationship, contrasting with the high-presure world of blockbuster filmmaking.. their mutual love for a quiet life, away from red carpets, seems to be the foundation that has kept them together as of 2025.

Two gold bands and an unsourced insider

The couple made a rare red carpet appearance at the Gersh Agency pre-Emmy party, and have since been photographed wearing matching gold bands on their left ring fingers. Yet the report relies heavily on an unnamed insider for the initial meeting details and on Olsen's own interviews for later milestones. Open questions remain: Who is that insider, and what other privacy measures have they taken? The source does not reveal how the couple navigates Marvel's publicity demands or whether any future public appearances are planned. As the article states, Olsen once said of her social media posts, “Every day I think I should delete it… I find myself putting something private up there and I think, This is stupid, why did I do that?” This attitude, as the report shows, has defined their entire partnership.
