The pair, without marriage, welcomed their daughter named Sky in 2010. Later in 2014, the duo got engaged and fortified their relationship.

But so far, Copperfield has been spending quality time with his possible wife-to-be and family. He attends various events and goes on vacations with her.
The magician even doesn't miss out on celebrating special occasions with his long-time partner. For instance, he posted a birthday post for Gosselin on August 23, 2019, on Instagram.
