For those of you keeping track at home, it only took nine months of dating for John to pop the question. Interestingly, they’re citing their past relationship failures as what helped their partnership blossom.
Alexis confirmed the engagement with a sweet post to her Instagram. She uploaded a picture of her and John, with huge smiles on their faces. The only thing bigger than John’s grin was the ginormous rock on Alexis’ finger.

“On Cloud 9 [party emoji] , celebrating 9 months of love and laughter, and looking forward to my forever with you,” Alexis captioned the picture. “Every moment together has been a gift. I am so in love with you and the beautiful life we’re building together. And the answer is 100000000% yes.”
In a statement to People, a representative for the RHOC couple confirmed that this was the real deal. Alexis and John got engaged on Tuesday, August 27 while celebrating their nine-month “anniversary.” The two took a trip to San Ysidro Ranch in Santa Barbara, California when he popped the question.
“John and Alexis are happily engaged, and look forward to their long future together as husband and wife,” the representative confirmed.
Of course, it feels like just yesterday that John was in a serious relationship with Shannon Beador. Plus, Alexis was engaged to her ex for three years before calling things off in September 2023. When John and Alexis had a chance run-in at The Quiet Woman, they wound up bonding over their broken hearts. Now, they’ve found their happily ever after with each other.
“The two have been supportive companions as they navigate newly single life,” a source close to the couple explained. “This common background paired with a mutual attraction has made it easy for Alexis and John to form a natural connection.”
