LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Kailyn Lowry, a former star of 'Teen Mom 2' has announced her engagement to boyfriend Elijah Scott, shortly after the birth of their twins. The MTV star revealed the news during the Thursday, August 22 episode of the 'Coffee Convos' podcast after her co-host, Lindsie Chrisley, noticed a large diamond ring on her finger. "Are you married?" Chrisley questioned to which Kailyn replied, "No, I'm not married. This is the ring that they give you before you get married.”

The mother of seven explained that she chose not to make a formal announcement about their engagement because she couldn't pinpoint a specific moment when Scott proposed. Kailyn mentioned that Scott always asked, "When are we going to get married?" but never "taking him seriously."  “I was just like, ‘We’ll play this by ear. I’ll let you know, if you have a ring one day, we’ll reevaluate," she further added. “And then one day he just showed up with a ring,” she continued. In response to the recent proposal, the reality star shared that Scott decided not to propose traditionally since they had both been married before.
