Living life after "The Bachelor" (or, "The Bachelorette") can be tough. Your relationship becomes public and entire nations are questing after any details on your supposed engagements.
So it's no surprise that former "Bachelor" star Juan Pablo Galavis has been trying to kepe his private life as private as possible. The reality star has been flying under the radar with his relationship with Nikki Ferrell, whom he chose at the end of last year's "Bachelor" season, but did not propose to (as is customary at the end of the show). Instead, the couple was content to continue dating.
Until now, when an engagement ring may have just been spotted on Ferrell's finger. A photo posted to Galavis' Twitter page, caught by Classicalite, shows the couple rifling through World Cup photos. However, on the right side of the photo is Ferrell's left hand, adorned with a new ring on the ring finger.
While there haven't yet been any announcements from Galavis, there are few other reasons for Ferrell to start wearing a ring on that particular finger.
This comes at an awkward time for the couple, as the media has recently been speculating if they're even still together or not. Wetpaint spotted Galavis in Atlantic City, engaged in close conversation with a mystery woman.
The woman, later identified as Ang Cottone, who appeared on the Howard Stern Show as the "MILF Mom," was apparently approached by Galavis at a party both were attending. However, no photos were snapped that show the two doing any more than talking, so anything more is probably just speculation.
As well, a recent piece by People Magazine confirms that the couple has not split up, and that the recent rumors (fed by the Ang Cottone picture) that Galavis and Ferrell were splitting were entirely false.
The couple recently did a stint on VH1's reality series "Couples Therapy," as well.
