One of the lovely ladies from Season 18 of "The Bachelor" has found love but not with Juan Pablo. According to Wetpaint, Renee Oteri is engaged and getting ready to move to Seattle with her new fiancé.
The 32-year-old single mom has not mentioned her new boyfriend (and now-fiancé) on Twitter but it's been speculated that she was going to announce a new romance on the "Women Tell All" special, airing Monday, Mar. 3.
According to Wetpaint, sources close to the couple dished on the engagement details and Oteri's mystery man popped the question while the two were traveling in Seattle this past weekend.
"Renee has known him since they were 12 years old," the source said. "He was her first kiss! They were best friends growing up, and even dated a few years ago, but they broke up in 2010."
Reportedly the split was amicable. The source said it was due to distance - Oteri was living in Massachusetts and her beau was in Colorado. After she was eliminated from "The Bachelor" in October, Oteri went back home to Sarasota, Fla. and started a talking to her ex again.
"He knew she was going on the show, but they don't talk about it at all," the source continued. "He hasn't been watching this season, and I doubt he will."
According to Wetpaint's source, he asked Oteri for her ring size a few weeks ago and then popped the question in a Seattle hotel room. Apparently they were in town because he was offered a job there. The couple was also looking for a place to live because they are reportedly relocating to Seattle soon.
Ben, Oteri's 8-year-old son, will also be making the move across country and sources said he's very excited about it. If this story is true, we can't wait to see the ring. Maybe she'll reveal it on the "Women Tell All?"
We'll have to wait and see but the couple's friend said the diamond sparkler is lovely.
"The ring is so beautiful! She's only told a few people, but she's so excited, and totally glowing," the source said. "It's very different and unlike anything anyone else has, because that's totally Renee's style."
This will be her second marriage. She was previously married to Ben's dad but the two split in 2008, Wetpaint reports.
What do you think? Is Renee Oteri really engaged?
