  • Kandi Burruss Reveals Engagement Ring + Details of Todd Tucker’s Proposal… [PHOTOS]

    Jan, 16 2013 | Written by ATLien

    kandi burruss todd tucker engagement ring
    Kandi Burruss of The Real Housewives of Atlanta and her boo Todd Tucker show off her huge rock in an exclusive interview with US Weekly.

    I revealed a few days ago that have taken the next step and have officially gotten engaged.

    [READ: It's Official! Kandi & Todd Engaged... ]

    Now the cute couple has revealed details about how, when and where Todd popped the question.

    Details PLUS a photo of Kandi’s huge rock below…

    Kandi, 36, accepted her beau’s proposal on New Year’s Day and with it, a gorgeous two-carat white diamond sparkler by ring designer Gregg Ruth.

    kandi burruss todd tucker 1The couple revealed the news of their engagement exclusively to Us Weekly on Jan. 15, and in the process also spilled some details on the story behind Burruss’ ring, which Tucker had shipped in from Las Vegas after his fiancee spotted it on a Housewives trip and called to tell him about it.

    He reportedly carried the ring around with him for “three to four months” before finally popping the question.

    The romantic proposal went down shortly after 1:30 a.m. on Jan. 1, during a New Year’s celebration at the couple’s home in Atlanta, the lovebirds tell Us.

    After talking it over with Burruss’ daughter, 10-year-old Riley — who gave Tucker her blessing — the 39-year-old producer got down on one knee and proposed to his love of more than a year in front of their family and friends, including Burruss’ fellow Atlanta Housewife Phaedra Parks.

    You may recall that the Grammy award winning songwriter was once engaged to the late Ashley “A.J.” Jewell

    , who she was with during her first season on the show.

    Kandi says she was “totally surprised” about Tucker’s proposal but was also “so excited.”

    “I used to make jokes with my friends that I [was] part of the Forever Single Club,” Burruss tells Us, adding that she and her hubby-to-be already have some ideas about their wedding.

    “That’s what I said before, but now I’m totally different.”

    Again… congratulations to the happy couple!!!

    (…and hopefully that check has cleared so it’s no longer a “secret”.)

        I know that "Momma Joyce and her Family" are giving Todd the "Side Eye", Kandi please get a "PreNup"…No Hate Here, just be cautious remember when "The Dophamine Wears Off" Which it will in due time, then the game change. I wonder what "Momma Joyce is REALLY THINKING ABOUT THIS NEW SITUATION"????

        Lol, well $200,000 is a lot of money compared to some of the men who don’t want to work and who are living with single women (some) who are struggling themselves that are taking care of them.

        No need to be a skeptic. I went to wedding recently that also released paper lanterns. If you dont release it properly they wont catch air. I saw the clip from the show you were referring to and both of them should have released it at the same time. Just a minor blunder on their part.

          Miss Jane Pittman was a character played by Cicely Tyson. Not sure of the actual name of the movie by it would be listed at the IMDB (International Movie Data Base) website. It was out way before Roots. You should check it out.
