Anthony Ramos, 33, is the star of Disney+'s new show, Ironheart. On screen, he plays the villain Hood/Parker Robbins. But off screen, he's a lover boy.
The Twisters stars in Ironheart alongside Shea Couleé, Dominique Thorne, and Sacha Baron Cohen. Anthony first garnered attention when he played John Laurens/Philip Hamilton in Lin-Manuel Miranda's groundbreaking Broadway musical, Hamilton. His Hollywood love life started there too.
From Hamilton with love
Anthony met his former Jasmine Cephas Jones, 25, who played Peggy Schuyler/Maria Reynolds, on Hamilton. They started dating briefly after their first rehearsal together.

Anthony's proposal was very romantic.
"My beloved Anthony, on Christmas Eve you got down on one knee and proposed to me in front of my favorite castle in Arundel that I used to visit all the time as a child," Jasmine captioned a now deleted Instagram post.

Anthony and Jasmine dated for six years. They experienced all the highs and lows of celebrity. The two attended many Hollywood events together – from the Grammy Awards to movie premieres.
"I think that's a blessing," Anthony explained to PEOPLE about enjoying success with his partner. "I'm just eternally grateful for her, man. I get excited when I think about it."

A dramatic ending
At the end of six years together, Anthony and Jasmine broke off their engagement. Both removed all photos of each other from their Instagram accounts.
Anthony seemed to address the breakup in his 2023 song "Villano," in which he sang: "They caught me wildin' at the club / Yeah I did that ... We were single, we were drunk / So I hit that / Next day tabloids with the spin back."
Anthony's rising career
Despite his heartbreak, Anthony's career took off after Hamilton. He's gone on to star in In The Heights, A Star is Born, The Bad Guys, and Godzilla: King of the Monsters.

"I've been seeing quite a few shows lately, which has been really inspiring," Anthony told The Hollywood Reporter. "I feel like I always get this jolt of inspiration when I go to Broadway. There's nothing like it!"
