Rebel Wilson has revealed she is yet to meet her fiancée' Ramona Agruma's parents for a heartbreaking reason.

During an interview on the Today show in the US, the Bridesmaids star, 44, who started dating Ramona in June 2022 before the pair got engaged months later, explained her partner comes from a conservative background.

'Ramona was born in Latvia, and it's not as LGBTQ+-friendly as other countries are,' she said. 

'There are still parts of the world that aren't as accepting.' 

She added that the couple will be soon heading to Europe for a holiday and she hopes this will allow her to finally meet her future in-laws and introduce their 19-month-old daughter Royce to them in person.

'I'm really excited to meet them because I know they are very smart. Ramona's mother is a doctor. Roycie is the real icebreaker. They've been FaceTiming with her.' 

Earlier this month, Rebel admitted while she feels 'lucky' her family were accepting of her relationship, her partner hasn't had such a comfortable ride.

Speaking on BBC Radio 4's 'Desert Island Discs' program, Rebel said: 'I'm lucky in my case, it went very, very well... My grandparents, who are in their 90s, so cool with it.'

'Ramona's family, not as much. Her mum has luckily come around now, her father still doesn't talk to her, but we're hoping that will change,' she added.

The actress had been in the process of using a surrogate to have a child when she first met Ramona, and was thankful her partner was quickly accepting of her family plans.

'I'd already been planning to use a surrogate to have a child and I'd done several rounds of IVF and I had one embryo transfer, which sadly didn't work.' 

'Almost right at meeting Ramona, I was planning on the second embryo transfer and I was like, "Babe I don't know how to tell you this, but I'm going to have a child kind of around November",' she said.

'Ramona just looked at me and said, "Well, I love you and if you have a child, I'm going to love your child exactly the same way."' 

The SAG Award nominee and her fiancée Ramona Agruma welcomed  Royce Lillian Elizabeth Wilson via surrogate in 2022.
