Whitney Port, former star of The Hills and The City, is engaged to boyfriend Tim Rosenman, making her the second Hills star to get engaged this fall.

Whitney Port: Tim Rosenman's Proposal

Port, a designer who co-stared on the MTV reality series The Hills with Lauren Conrad, says her boyfriend popped the question while the couple was traveling in Australia.

“It happened a couple of weeks ago when we were in Australia… He proposed in our hotel room. It was super intimate. We went home the next day. I love the ring, it’s beautiful,” the newly engaged star gushed.

Port and Rosenman met on the set of Port’s reality spinoff, The City, where Rosenman worked as an associate producer. The two struck up a friendship, and eventually started a romantic relationship once Port broke up with her ex, Ben Nemtin (who stared in his own MTV reality series, The Buried Life) in 2011.

“I knew he was the guy for me, but it wasn’t something that I had been expecting. My family knew. He had gone to each member to ask their permission,” Port said.

Whitney To Design Her Own Dress

Port is currently working on her fashion line, Whitney Eve, and says she plans on designing her own wedding dress. While Port is still in the early planning stages, she did say that she might be getting help from her old pal Conrad who recently got engaged to William Tell.

“We talked, we’re both so excited for each other,” Port told E!.
