“My son is engaged and I couldn’t be happier for him and [Erika],” she wrote, captioning a photo of her oldest child kissing his bride-to-be as she showed off her sparkling ring.
Cassidy also shared the happy news, writing that she was “the most excited to welcome my already sister @missamerikabrown into the craziness ❤️.”

Opening up about how her relationship with her children has changed over the years, Gifford previously told PEOPLE that her children, who live in California, visit her often.
“They’re both great human beings who realized that their mama needs them now more than they need me,” she said.
“They come home a lot, and it means the world to me,” Gifford added. “When your children ultimately become your dear friends, you know you’ve made a switch in the relationship.”
