Draya Michele Engaged: 'Basketball Wives' Star Gets Engaged to Orlando Scandrick (PHOTO)

"Basketball Wives L.A." star Draya Michele and football player Orlando Scandrick are engaged!

The 28-year-old Dallas Cowboys cornerback proposed to the reality star Thursday night over drinks, Michele confirmed to People.

"He told me to dress casual and we ended up going to where we had our first date [Arclight Cinemas in Sherman Oaks]," the 30-year-old star said of the special night. "He was acting so weird and so nervous. When he walked up to the bar he tripped and fell over some chairs! I was thinking 'What in the world is wrong with him?'"

Things quickly turned when the spotlight was suddenly on her.

"He got down on one knee and as soon as he started to talk I got nervous," she revealed. "And couldn't help but to laugh hysterically. I was laughing and crying at the same time."

Scandrick gave her a beyond beautiful $400,000 7-carat diamond ring with a cushion-cut stone, according to Us Weekly.

"It was a pleasure designing this ring with Orlando," Jason Arasheben, CEO of Jason of Beverly Hills, said. "He wanted to make sure the ring was perfect and she couldn't be happier

On Friday, Michele posted a photo of the gorgeous ring with roses in the background to Instagram.

"Yesterday, the love of my life asked me to be his wife...I said YES!!!" the caption read. "Love you @oscandrick32 forever starts now."

The two were taking some time apart just last month due to their hectic schedules, but they're back together and happier than ever.

"We were getting ready to take the next step," Michele says of the split, even though they still spoke every single day. "And I believe that with new levels comes new devils. We needed a little time away to realize that we missed each other terribly."

"I knew I was going to say yes to him whether he asked me now or four months ago," she admits. "He's the first man to make me want to be different and mature."

 Yesterday, the love of my life asked me to be his wife...... I said YES !!! Love you forever starts now ❤️
