Rebel Wilson has lived up to her name after breaking a rule that got her banned from Disneyland. The Australian actress got into trouble after taking a photo in a secret bathroom at the park.
This ban comes after Wilson proposed to her girlfriend Ramona Agruma at the famous theme park. While she got Disney CEO Bob Iger’s blessings to pop the question there, she will not be allowed inside for a while. Although the proposal went well, Wilson was initially very nervous about it.

Rebel Wilson Banned From Disneyland For A Month
The “Senior Year” actress was asked to stay out of Disneyland for a month after taking an “illegal photo” in a secret bathroom at the park on Friday. She noted this on The Daily Show and revealed that the “official” sentence was 30 days long.
However, knowing that Wilson was a Disneyland fan, the park’s bosses fixed the punishment on her busy days so that it wouldn’t affect her.
She said they “called me up and said, ‘Rebel what 30 days did you not want to come to Disneyland because you’re away filming a movie or something?'” to which she replied, “Oh, well, June would be fine.”
She Got Permission To Propose There
Prior to the ban, the “Isn’t it Romantic” star got Bob Iger’s blessings to propose to the love of her life at the park. Wilson then broke the news to her fans on Instagram and also gave the Disney boss a shout-out.
During an episode of the “Drew Barrymore Show” on Thursday, she said about Iger, “He’s the big, big boss and I thought, ‘Well, if he says yes, then it was meant to be, and I was meant to propose that day at Disneyland.'”
The proposal was a big deal for Wilson, who got to pop the question at the “most magical proposal place on Earth.” Wilson, who is also a musician and producer, picked a “really romantic” and “special” area at the park and got a violinist to play Disney classics for the occasion.
Rebel Wilson Is A Huge Disneyland Fan
Apart from secret bathrooms, the 43-year-old revealed other inside info about the popular Disney theme park. Wilson said on The Daily Show that “cool names” are given to some character-inspired groups, “like the White Rabbits and the Children of Thanos and Coco Locos.” These groups like to walk around together in matching outfits and “do gang stuff around Disneyland.”
Visitors could also do fun activities inspired by some Disney classics. Wilson explained, “one of the initiations was you had to steal the apple from the Snow White ride, and the apple kept getting stolen so many times they had to make it a hologram.” After discussing the fun-packed park, the die-hard fan asked the public not to ask how she knew so much about Disneyland because “I will not say.”
Rebel Wilson Was Nervous About Her Engagement
Wilson was very nervous about going through with her engagement to Agruma since it was her first time. However, the star, who has been with the fashion designer since June 2022, braved up and proposed. While Agrum agreed to marry her, she felt second-hand embarrassment for Wilson.
Wilson recalled her fiancée asking, “What are you doing?” before adding, “Well, you can’t be the only one on your knee,” and joining her on the ground. Following the proposal, the couple went on a “new ride” at the park. However, the “Almond and the Seahorse” actress was still so overwhelmed that she “collapsed afterwards.”
Recalling why, she said, “I’d never been engaged before, or proposed to, or proposed. So it was such a huge thing in my life.” Wilson added, “I literally collapsed on the floor for five minutes, and then I go, ‘OK, I’m good. Let’s get churros and move on.'”
The actress shocked fans when she announced their relationship on Instagram last year. At the time, she wrote a sweet caption that reads, “I thought I was searching for a Disney Prince… but maybe what I really needed all this time was a Disney Princess.” The couple can’t wait to continue their family, as they welcomed a child in November via surrogate.
