Jennifer Pedranti brought herself back a special souvenir from her trip to the Bahamas – a diamond ring.
The “Real Housewives of Orange County” star revealed that her beau, Ryan Boyajian, popped the question during their tropical getaway last week.
“We’re both super stoked and couldn’t be happier,” she told People Monday. “We always say that our love is a gift, and this just feels like the icing on the cake.”
Reflecting on the proposal, the Bravolebrity claimed she didn’t see it coming.
“I was shocked,” Pedranti admitted, explaining they were on their way to lunch when Boyajian unexpectedly took a detour.
“He was like, ‘Come here for a second’ and we walked down on the beach. And he pulled me in, and I said to him, ‘Are you doing something?’ And the second he got down in the sand, I don’t even remember what he said because I was so surprised.”
Snaps obtained by People showed the picture-perfect moment as Boyajian knelt in front of the Bravo star while wearing white swim trunks, a baseball cap and sunglasses.
As for Pedranti, she waved her arms in the air at the sight of the ring while rocking a zebra-print bikini.
A close-up snap showed the stunning ring’s gorgeous center stone filled with over five carats and outlined with smaller diamonds.
Pedranti said she never expected her now-fiancé to propose with such a massive rock, especially after they agreed to only get a tattoo on their ring finger when they got married.
“And then this guy proposes with a ring that just knocks my socks off,” she continued.
The couple started dating in September 2020 when Jennifer was still wed to her estranged husband, William Pedranti.
The businessman filed for divorce on Jan. 3, 2021 after 18 years of marriage, citing “irreconcilable differences.”
William and Jennifer – who share kids Harrison, 20, Dawson, 17, Greyson, 15, Everleigh, 13, and Dominic, 10 – are still in the middle of divorce proceedings, per People.
As for Boyajian, he shares Cole, 20, and Tyler, 18, from former relationships.
