“It’s such a beautiful stone,” the insider tells Us of Hough’s giant new rock. And the story behind it is even more precious. “Brooks started working with Lorraine about 8 months ago and it was really important to find the perfect stone that reflected Julianne’;s classically chic style,” the source adds.
The happy couple announced their engagement via Instagram on Tuesday, Aug. 18.

“We are overwhelmed with joy and excitement to share with you our recent engagement!” the Dancing With the Stars judge, 27, wrote alongside an adorable snap of herself staring at her ring and embracing her future husband, 31. “#fiancé #love.”
The Washington Capitals player was introduced to Ryan Seacrest’s ex-girlfriend through a mutual friend back in 2013. “She’s happier than ever,” a source told Us at the time.
