Instructor Ally Love has a lot to celebrate this year: not only is her career with Peloton still going strong, she and her longtime boyfriend Andrew Haynes got engaged at the beginning of 2021. Love didn't share too many details about her husband-to-be, but described the proposal as "unexpected and so perfect" (via The Focus).
Since then, Love has opened up quite a bit about her proposal and engagement ring. She told The Knot that Haynes designed the ring himself with help from Danny Mikhay, the president of New York's Luxury Watch Collective, but that the best part of the day happened before he even proposed. "But more importantly, it was that day, the conversation that we had prior to him bringing out the ring and getting on his knee and asking, 'I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you marry me?'"
She also shared that the couple, who have been together for over nine years, had a conversation about engagement rings early on. "I might have alluded to something, but I don't remember exactly. I remember Andrew saying, 'You don't know what you want just yet.' The ring is a symbol of the connection or your love, as a physical representation, and it should reflect the love itself and where you are in life" (via The Knot).
