Melissa Rycroft was The Bachelor 13 winner. The next night, we found out that putz Jason dumped her. To make it up to her, ABC pretended she was a star and gave her a spot on Dancing with the Stars.
Shortly after, Melissa got back with her ex, Tye Strickland, who she had dated on and off for two years. Now, People has confirmed that the two are engaged.
While filming The Bachelor, Melissa complained that she always dated losers before. Well, that doesn’t bode well for new fiance Tye.
“He’s my best friend,” Rycroft, 26, gushed to PEOPLE last April about the 28-year-old agent.
“He is a great home-town boy,” Rycroft’s DWTS partner Dovolani told PEOPLE of Strickland. “He will love her endlessly.”
