Todd Tucker and Kandi Burrus at a private party in Atlanta |
The couple met two years ago when Kandi and her other cast-mates were filming in Africa. Todd worked on part of the production.
According to US Weekly.. Tucker, 39, popped the question on New Year's Day, during a New Year's celebration with friends at the couple's home in Atlanta. (Among the party guests was fellow Atlanta Housewife Phaedra Parks, who's currently expecting her second child with husband Apollo Nida.) After talking it over with Burruss' daughter, 10-year-old Riley -- who gave him her blessing -- he got down on one knee and proposed to his love of more than a year with a two-carat diamond sparkler by Gregg Ruth.
The singer-songwriter, 36 -- who has been engaged once before, to the late Ashley "A.J." Jewell -- was floored. "I was totally surprised," she says of the romantic proposal, adding that she even shed a few happy tears.
The happy couple already have two dates in mind for their big day, but they're still working out a lot of the other details, including whether the wedding will be filmed for The Real Housewives of Atlanta. One thing Burruss is sure of is that Tucker has changed her life for the better.
YAY! We love us some Kandi! We're beyond happy for the couple. I guess the ring does mean something, huh Kandi!?
With all the drama happening on the show this season so far between Phaedra and Kenya over a booty work out tape, we're happy to see there's sunshine after the storm for one cast member!
Watch the RHOA Sunday night's at 8/7 central on BRAVO!
