The Teen Mom 2 star, 27, announced that she said "yes" to Gonzalez after eight months of dating over the weekend. DeJesus shared a photo of her new engagement ring on Twitter Sunday.

"Javi asked and I said YES! We are ENGAGED 💍," she wrote alongside a photo of her left hand entangled with Gonzalez's hand.

Following the engagement, DeJesus opened up to MTV News about her future with Gonzalez.

"I'm so in love and so excited to start a new chapter with Javi," she told the news outlet on Monday. "He is an incredible man and I can't want to marry him. The ring is beautiful and I've never been this happy!"

Earlier this month, DeJesus said she and Gonzalez were taking their relationship "very slow."

"I hope he's the one. He's so nice," she told E! News. "I've never met a man this sincere and genuine and that respects me so much."

The MTV personality shares daughter Nova Star, 9, with ex Devoin Austin and daughter Stella Star, 3, with ex Luis Hernandez. She also previously dated fellow Teen Mom star Javi Marroquin from 2017 until they split early the following year.

During an episode of Teen Mom that aired in June 2018, DeJesus revealed that Marroquin, 28, proposed to her, but she ultimately turned down his offer. "It wasn't my ideal proposal and I wasn't going to accept the ring," she said. "It's not the right time, so I gave it back to him. He wants to marry me, he wants me to have his children, he wants me to move in with him. There's a lot of stuff that he wants."

DeJesus added, "Javi is a person that wants things down yesterday. That's the military life. I get it. But that's not how I live my life."

Teen Mom 2 airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET on MTV.
