Raquel and James’ engagement comes after the latter hinted he was getting ready to pop the question to his longtime love during an episode of Overserved with Lisa Vanderpump earlier this month. “Well, can you keep a secret? … I love Raquel so much, you know that,” he said during the show. “She really has helped me, and you’ve seen everything she’s stuck by me with. I really couldn’t imagine myself with anyone else on this planet. There’s no ‘buts’ — I think I’m going to ask her to marry me.”
The lovebirds are known for having gone through a lot of ups and downs throughout their relationship, including James’ addiction issues, which he shared on Vanderpump Rules. He celebrated one year of sobriety last July and thanked Raquel for helping him through the difficult time in a post on social media. “Thank you to my rock @raquelleviss for getting me here I couldn’t of [sic] done this without you my love. ♥️ and thank you all for the support this past year,” he wrote.
Raquel also hinted at a possible engagement to James, in an EXCLUSIVE interview with HollywoodLife in Apr. 2020. “We’ve been talking about engagement for a long time,” she said. “He’s mentioned it to me several times and I told him I would tell him when I’m ready. I see it in the future.”
