After a year of dating, Tarek El Moussa and Heather Rae Young are officially engaged [1]! The pair announced the news on July 26 while celebrating their first anniversary as a couple. Tarek — who was previously married to his Flip or Flop costar, Christina Anstead, with whom he shares a 9-year-old daughter, Taylor, and a 4-year-old son, Brayden — popped the question after the couple had traveled by boat to Catalina Island, CA.

The proposal holds a special meaning as the duo actually met while boating in Newport Beach, CA [2], with their respective friends on July 4, 2019. The Selling Sunset [3] realtor just so happened to be docked next to Tarek [4], who asked her out after seeing her. Later that month, they were photographed kissing on a yacht at California's Portofino Hotel & Marina [5]. They made their red carpet debut as an item at the premiere of HGTV's A Very Brady Renovation two months later in September and made another snazzy appearance at a Los Angeles Ronald McDonald House event in November. They say you find love when you least expect it, and that certainly seems to be the case with these future spouses!
