Lake first confirmed her romance with Burningham in December 2020. The star made the relationship Instagram official with a selfie of the two snuggled up together beside the caption, "LOVE."
In an Instagram post confirming the engagement, Lake called Burningham "wonderful" and "my person."
"I love him very much and I am so grateful I get to love and be loved so deeply by this stellar human," she wrote on Instagram. "Our next chapter is sure to be a good one. #heartopen #lifeisbeautiful #ibelieveinlove #thisis52 #selflove #nofilter #justhappy."
Speaking with PEOPLE in February after their engagement, Lake said she and her fiancé were surprised to have found love with each other at this stage in life. "Ross and I literally pinch ourselves that we have found each other at this time in our lives," she said at the time.
"Both of us, newly empty-nesters, we feel as if we are kids again. We are filled with gratitude and joy for what is to come," added the Business of Being Born filmmaker.

During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live later that month, Lake shared the intimate details of Burningham's proposal host Andy Cohen.
"I was naked in the jacuzzi with my man on the first night that we're in my new Malibu home. So it was romantic and very spontaneous and I couldn't be happier," Lake said. She later noted that she and Burningham had "only known each other since the end of June" of 2020.
"He's wonderful," she added. "Everyone in my life who has met him just gets it. We're great together."
