'Real Housewives Of New York' star Tinsley Mortimer got engaged to her on-again-off-again boyfriend Scott Kluth on Sunday, November, 24. 

The 40-year-old businessman proposed to Tinsley, 44, in Chicago, his native town. He chose the steps of the Chicago Water Tower to make the big gesture as Christmas carolers sang nearby, according to Page Six

“Scott’s apartment is close to where the carollers were,” a source told the outlet. “They were walking to dinner to and they saw these carollers, and they broke into Christina Perri’s ‘A Thousand Years,’ which is their song. It took Tinsley a few seconds to figure out what was going on, but then Scott got down on one knee. He’d organized the whole thing with the carollers in advance.”

The tipster added that although the reality TV star's friends knew that the proposal was going to happen, she had no idea and it took her by surprise.

“She was totally surprised,” the source continued. “Her friends sort of knew something was coming, but it really did take her by surprise. Scott asked her mom’s [Dale Mercer’s] permission, so their families knew, but it was a surprise to her friends.”

The two met through former 'RHONY' star Carole Radziwill and eventually began dating.

However, the couple found it difficult to maintain their relationship over a long distance and broke up multiple times.

That does not mean that the pair has shied away from discussing their relationship on national television. Last year, during one of their breakups, she addressed her relationship status on 'Watch What Happens Live.'

"We're... Andy [Cohen], don't pressure me," the Bravo star said. "Look, we're broken up right now, but I'll tell you this, we break up all the time, just the media doesn't get a hold of it like they did this time."

But something must have gone right because Scott ended up buying an engagement ring for his girlfriend on November 1.

If Tinsley ends up getting married to Scott, it will be her second marriage. She was previously married to Topper Mortimer between 2002 and 2010.
