When did Courtney Stodden and Chris Sheng get engaged?

Stodden and Sheng were reportedly in a nearly seven-year-long on and off relationship prior to their recent separation. The duo allegedly started dating in 2017 after Stodden's divorce from first husband Doug Hutchinson.

The 'Couples Therapy' star announced their engagement to Sheng in May 2021 and took to Instagram to show off their engagement ring in a Boomerang video. "I said yes... OH and the ring made me gag it's so beautiful," Stodden wrote at the time. "So this happened! Not how I planned but the moment was right," Sheng added in his own Instagram post. "On Friday, May 28 I proposed to the love of my life and they said Yes," he continued.

"I feel so blessed and fortunate. We have both grown so much since we first met, and the fact that we have both been able to grow into better, stronger, more secure individuals while still being in a relationship together makes me have faith that this partnership will last a lifetime. For the first time we're both experiencing unconditional love. The truest kind of love. The kind where we may not always like each other but will ALWAYS love each other. I promise to always be your rock, support, and shoulder to lean on - no matter what. I got you. Ily," Sheng detailed in his post.
