Three years and one baby later, Maci Bookout's longtime boyfriend, Taylor McKinney, finally popped the question— and of course she said yes!
"Well y'all, my best friends asked me to marry him!" the Teen Mom OG star, 24, announced this afternoon. "I'm one lucky lady, I love you T!"
She posted a sweet photo of the couple kissing and showing off her ring.
According to MTV, the big event went down on a recent vacation in Venice Beach, California.
"He (and MTV) had told me that I was going to do an interview for MTV.com, which turned out to be a complete trick just to get me to the beach for him to ask me." Bookout told MTV. "When he asked me to marry him, I was in complete shock. I couldn't believe that it was actually happening, and to be honest, I couldn't believe that he had pulled it off without me figuring it out…because I usually know everything!"
The news likely comes as a relief to Teen Mom fans. On a recent episode of her hit MTV show, Bookout and her motocross racer man, 26, argued over his failure to propose following the birth of their daughter Jayde, now 8 months.
"When are you going to make me an honest woman?" she asked during a Las Vegas trip. "I'm tired of people saying, 'He's a piece of s*** because he won't propose.' We've been together for three years, we have a child together and we own a house together."
The couple lives together in Chattanooga, Tennessee, with baby Jayde and her 6-year-old son Bentley, from her high school engagement to bad boy baby daddy Ryan Edwards.
Bookout isn't the first Teen Mom OG star to say "I do." Catelynn Lowell and Tyler Baltierra tied the knot in August, while costar Amber Portwood is planning to wed fiancé Matt Baier next fall.
