In August, the Overhaulin host got down on one knee and proposed to her after throwing out the first pitch himself. And hello, he bestowed upon her with a one-and-a-half-carat princess cut ring.
Jacobs gave away that they had been dating for just 8 months, and he couldn’t just be not engaged to her anymore. They connected via Instagram and quickly hit it off.
